From the land down under to the land of forty below is soundscape cellist, Rob Knaggs. Knaggs has performed for belugas on the Hudson Bay, collaborated with throat singers, didgeridoo/yidaki players, and members of the Royal Winnipeg Ballet. He has shared stages with Montreal sound-wizard Tim Hecker, The Saints’ Ed Kuepper, and US singer-songwriter Toni Childs. Drawing from ambient post-rock and neo-classical minalism, Knaggs’ original works move from fiery fuzzing roars to delicate meditative shimmers, showcasing a dynamic performance that is inspiring and bittersweet.

Rob's latest work, No Accidents, is a hit of dramatic orchestral bliss, from the urgent driving pace of Flooded to the shifting melancholic wonder of No Accidents, Knaggs' emotive compositions are grandiose and aim for the stars.
