Wassermann, Anker & Parkins is a trio established in 2018 (on hold from 2020 until now) consisting of three highly prominent musicians/composers on the European experimental music and sound art scene.
W, A & P explore sound in fluid electroacoustic fields of gestures and tension, creating both disturbing, strange and beautiful adventurous sonic worlds. Adventurous and transcendent music.

Ute Wassermann, voice artist, composer, improvisor is known for her extraordinary, many-voiced and extreme vocal sound-language, which she brings into experimental/contemporary music in diverse ways. Wassermann is engaged in the areas of composition, improvisation and performance / sound art: she takes the voice beyond itself, extends her voice using bird whistles, speaker objects, resonators, field recordings, multi-channel- diffusion and light (with Michael Vorfeld). Numerous performances in festivals, galleries and clubs throughout Europe, Australia, Mexico, Brazil and Asia. Performances with different bands and ad hoc with musicians like Phil Minton, Thomas Lehn, Martin Blume, John Russel, Raed Yassin, Mazen Kerbaj, Michael Vorfeld, Andrea Neumann, Sabine Ercklentz and many others. Recent commissions for compositions by Ryogoku Art Festival, University of Amsterdam, Poetica Sonora / Mexico City, Transart Festival and Festival Eclat. She has received several grants like a residency at the Civitella Ranieri Foundation in 2015.

Andrea Parkins is a sound artist, composer and electroacoustic performer engaging with interactive electronics as both material and process. Described as a “sound-ist of protean talent” by critic Steve Smith, she is known for her pioneering gestural/textural approach on her electronically processed accordion, and investigation of embodiment and chance with her amplified object and self-designed virtual sound-processing instruments. Her projects include performances, multi-diffusion sound installations; electronic music compositions; and sound design for contemporary dance, film and intermedia performance. Parkins’ work has been presented at the Whitney Museum of American Art, Experimental Intermedia, Issue Project Room, Kunsthalle Basel, Musée d’Art Moderne et Contemporain (Strasbourg), NEXT (Bratislava), and many more. She performs as a solo artist and has collaborated with Tony Buck, Magda Mayas, The Necks, Nels Cline, George E. Lewis, and contemporary dance theatre director Vera Mantero, among others. Parkins’ recordings are released by Important Records, Atavistic, Henceforth, Confront, and Creative Sources. http://www.andreaparkins.com
