Clocked Out Duo
New music with a sense of play and adventure

Clocked Out Duo use traditional and modified instruments alongside a bewildering array of toys, found objects, junk and sound sculptures to create carefully designed sonic and visual experiences. Their unique style embraces a wide variety of influences from experimental, jazz and world music sources. In their playful and adventurous work Clocked Out Duo create links between disparate styles and artistic communities.

Equally at home in major concert halls and intimate clubs, the Brisbane-based duo has toured in Australia, New Zealand, Asia, the U.S., and Europe. They have released two critically acclaimed CDs and plan to complete their third in 2008, with music inspired by Terry Riley and Morton Feldman.
