Trummerflora, or rubble plants and trees, are a special phenomenon unique to heavily bombed urban areas. The bomb acts as a plow, mixing rubble fragments with the earth which often contain seeds dormant for a century or more. These seeds come to light and those that can live in this new and special earth grow and flourish.
The Trummerflora Collective is an independent group of music makers that embraces the pluralistic nature of creative music as an important means of artistic expression for the individual and the community, and provides an atmosphere that nurtures the creative development of its members.

Trummerflora Collective presents the 3rd Annual Spring Reverb, a festival of original music, dance, and visual art. Performers from Britain, Japan, Mexico, and the US come together for this celebration of creativity. The performances and a visual arts exhibit (including video) will be held at the Museum of Art Downtown on Thursday, May 6th and Friday, May 7th at La Antigua Bodega de Papel in Tijuana, Mexico. Creative music workshops will be held on Wednesday, May 5th.
These musicians and artists represent a fascinating international culture of aesthetic risk-takers who push the limits of their imagination (and ours). Each has a unique approach unfettered by any unifying philosophy - no dogmas, simply a commitment to artistic exploration, freedom, and the creative process. Trummerflora continues to explore the theme of collaboration by hosting numerous improvisatory interactions between the collective and their invited guest artists during Spring Reverb '04. They will also expand their work with visual arts, dj's, and dancers. Spring Reverb is an example of this as shown in the roster of performers below. This year the festival and artist interviews will be broadcast and webcast live by KFJC. Visit www.kfjc.org to tune in on the day of the show. Artist bios and photos available here.
