Kevin Drumm

Kevin Drumm (born 1970) is an experimental musician based in Chicago, United States.

Emerging from the city's improvised music scene, in the 1990s he became one of the world's pre-eminent prepared guitar players.

Since then his work has expanded to include electroacoustic compositions and live electronic music made with laptop computers and analog modular synthesizers.

Drumm has collaborated with many artists working in similar fields, including Japanese guitarist Taku Sugimoto, multi-instrumentalist and producer Jim O'Rourke, and many European improvisers such as Swedish saxophonist Mats Gustafsson and German trumpeter Axel Dörner.

He has also worked with the artist group Simparch, composing a piece for their installation Spec, shown at Documenta XI in Kassel, Germany and at the Renaissance Society in Chicago.
