Marc Edwards & Colin Fisher - [excerpt]

Returning after a couple pandemic hiatus years, the Intersection Festival made its way back to the concrete expanse of Yonge-Dundas Square, bringing abrasive and strange sounds to the wider public. Keeping to the main stage (except for Kristina Guison's circular sander art installation), this was a bit more of a stripped-down affair than years past, but the organizational caution meant things went off without a hitch. Even on a Labour Day weekend afternoon, downtown feels a little less hectic than it used to be, but it was nice to be outside and run into some familiar faces for the first time in so long.

Colin Fisher seems to be a fixture at these YDS shows, both with regular groups, as a sideman, and bringing out-of-town guests along to play. This set fell into the latter category, with Fisher being joined by legendary NYC free-jazz drummer Marc Edwards. "We're gonna rip for you," Fisher commented before the pair launched into it and 'nuff said.
