Gentle Tasaday

Trouble at the Caves...

About Me

Gentle Tasaday stands as a testament to the lasting friendship of Erik Wivinus and Eric Hofferber. What has evolved is the sound of two like minds experiencing a point in time together - a sound free of inhibition and restraint. The two started making music together almost immediately upon getting to know each other over 15 years ago and they continue working and playing together to this day. Releases to date have included a rare self-released split 10" lathe-cut record titled "Trouble at the Caves", the full-length CD "In the Minds Eye of a Blind Tasaday" on Camera Obscura and appearances on the C.O. compilation "Serotonin Ronin" (as Dorothy Flight Pattern) as well as the Secret Eye compilation "For the Dead in Space II & III," a tribute to Tom Rapp and Pearls Before Swine. Who knows what may come next... anything can happen...
