Real Name:
Robert Poss
Profile:
Robert Poss has performed and recorded with Rhys Chatham, Nicolas Collins, Ben Neill, Phill Niblock, David Dramm, Susan Stenger and Bruce Gilbert. In 1986, he formed the wall-of-guitars group Band of Susans, which Rolling Stone Magazine described as "adamantly arty, brainy, visceral and bracing." BOS released two EPs and five full-length CDs (all produced by Poss) before disbanding in 1995. In 2002 Poss released two companion solo CDs, "Distortion Is Truth" and "Crossing Casco Bay" on Trace Elements Records. Of his recent solo work, Tape Op Magazine writes “Guitar genius, drone meister … Robert Poss is the master of treated and manipulated guitars.” He continues to perform his guitar and electronics pieces in the U.S., the U.K. and Europe.
