Eric Thielemans

Drummer and percussionist. Musical thinker. Creating Sounding-Scenes. Travelling across music scenes and disciplines, Thielemans navigates by means of his own compass. Most known for his resonant solo works like a Snare is a Bell, Sprang, Aural Mist and Bata Baba Loka, and many collaborations with musicians in the experimental music scene as well as the Jazz scene and indie folk/pop/rock scenes, Thielemans keeps on pushing the borders and expanding conscious aural spaces and territories. Recently, and in some recent past, Thielemans has collaborated in trio together with the late Mika Vainio & Charlemagne Palestine (PVT released on Godbear April 2020), a trio together with Oren Ambarchi and Charlemagne Palestine (PAT released on Godbear July 2022) , a duo together with Oren Ambarchi (Double Consciousness released in 2023), a duo with Billy Hart (Talking about the Weather), Chantal Acda (The Sparkle in our Flaws, Bounce Back, Puwawau, Saturday Moon), Marshall Allen (Sun Ra), Tape Cuts Tape, Distance Light & Sky, Jozef Dumoulin, Trevor Dunn, Shahzad Ismaily, Vaast Colson, Nico Dockx, Laurie Anderson, and many more.
