Cactus Truck
Based in Amsterdam, this fire-breathing improvisational trio of bassist/guitarist Jasper Stadhouders, drummer Onno Govaert, and American-born saxophonist John Dikeman (Shoji Hano, Keiji Haino) plays a high-energy brand of free jazz influenced by the likes of Albert Ayler and Peter Brötzmann at their most intense. Along their scorched path, they’ve collaborated with trombonist Jeb Bishop, trumpeter Roy Campbell, and NYC guitarist Ava Mendoza. With blistering speed, ferocious punk energy, no-wave sonic severity and unapologetic, ecstatically free relentlessness, Cactus Truck “play a brand of bar-clearing music that both repels and, ultimately, compels” (All About Jazz).
