Under the name GARDENER, Richmond, VA-based Dash Lewis uses a modular synthesizer, effects pedals, and his own voice to create intricately layered, rhythmically complex slabs of trance-inducing psychedelia, weaving looped vocal passages into thick, textured drones. Deeply influenced by German kosmiche music of the 1970s, mid-career Beach Boys, and spiritual jazz, Lewiss interest lies in the organic interplay between electronics and the human voice. With Gardener, he works to meld seemingly disparate elements into a single instrument. In addition to Gardener, Lewis works in a duo with Jeff Zeigler (PHL) and has collaborated many others. A frequent performer, Lewis has toured with The War on Drugs, Meg Mulhearn (Divine Circles, U.S. Christmas), Gull, Robert Aiki Aubrey Lowe, Fred Thomas, Benoit Pioulard, Jeff Zeigler, Mary Lattimore, Tashi Dorji, Mind Over Mirrors, and many more.
