sans le systeme is an experimental music / performance project led by composer / director JG Everest (Lateduster, BLACKFISH, Fresh Squeez, Grave Trio, Gold Minefield), based in Minneapolis, MN. All SLS performances are entirely improvised, and often feature 10 or more members performing together at a time.

Founded in 2002 as a Lateduster side project, SLS first appeared on the Crossfaded Vol.1 compilation, (Groove Garden) with a track called “Wipes (thank you & goodbye)” featuring Everest, Martin Dosh, Jeremy Ylvisaker, and Mark Erickson (FOG).

Everest revived SLS in 2015 with a weekly summer residency at The Third Bird in Minneapolis, launching the iNMiGRATiON series, with a different SLS lineup each week and live video projections by video artist Brian Dehler.  A second, Winter iNMiGRATiON residency followed at ICEHOUSE Mpls, where Everest expanded the “installation environments” vision to include the Free Range Orchestra & Choir ensemble roving and performing throughout the space.

Following the indoor residencies, Everest shifted iNMiGRATiON to a series of outdoor locations and special events, including the The Wolf House, Midtown Farmers Market, Square Lake Film & Music Festival, The American Swedish Institute, Hook & Ladder, and People’s Center, as well as another indoor Winter residency at Icehouse in 2019-2020.

MARTIN DOSH is our Monday Night Jazz Resident and Guest Curator for the month of January!

Martin Dosh has been making independent music out of his basement in Minneapolis, and around the world, for 20 years. He first came to acclaim with his self titled debut on Anticon in 2003. As he continued making Dosh records, of which there are many, he also joined forces with Andrew Bird, whom he played and recorded with from 2005-2014. His live performances are often solo, combining drums, samplers, synths and Rhodes. One of the earliest pioneers of live looping, he continues to record and perform, layering melodies and drones over acoustic and electronic beats. His latest LP, Tomorrow 1972, features Jeff Parker and Dan Bitney (Tortoise), Bird, Mike Lewis (Bon Iver, Happy Apple), Tobacco, The Nunnery, and many others. He has opened shows for the likes of Sylvan Esso, Tune-Yards, Black Moth Super Rainbow, Makaya McCraven and Death Grips, to name just a few. HIs music is hard to pin down: a genre-less, percussive hybrid of electronic, hip-hop and jazz.
