Mind On Fire is a Sydney-based project formed by brothers Brad and Sam Gill. Since forming in 2017, they have developed a unique approach to blending improvisation and experimental composition, amassing a substantial body of work for duo and expanded formations with esteemed collaborating performers.

Since forming in 2017, Mind On Fire have released three albums and an EP of original compositions and improvisations, including their most recent release “Still, Vol. 2” (Radial Sounds, 2022). They also recorded a performance for Phoenix Central Park’s video series that was released in 2020.

Alex tunes drums low, blows, bows cymbals, Jim clamps a new tuning system, pringle-mutes Sax; hitting, singing, scraping, Uma stretches her vocally trumpeting like a rubber band that can spring back in a nanosecond.

Probably you’d say they ain’t too sure what they’re doing, and they kinda hope it stays that way.
