BIO
Adrian cn Berry (they/them) is a mid-career musician and audio-visual technologist whose creative practice plays at the intersection of rock & roll, community building, and trauma-informed healing. They work across composition, music production, videography, and visual programming as an inquiry into surveillance, vulnerability, and identity in virtual/physical space. Following years of touring internationally as a saxophonist and vocalist in U.S. punk bands, Adrian relocated to Toronto to pursue their Master’s in Music Technology & Digital Media at the University of Toronto. To date, Adrian has performed over 350 shows with 22 bands in North America and Europe and has been featured in publications like The New Yorker, Rolling Stone, SPIN, Pitchfork, and VICE magazine. Adrian is known for their work in bands such as Ted Leo & The Pharmacists, Gauche (Merge Records) and Downtown Boys (Sub Pop/Don Giovanni Records). Currently, Adrian is devoting their energy to their new Art-Pop solo project Gold Cove and exciting multimedia collaborations.
In March 2022, Adrian debuted Gold Cove through a multi-channel video installation called Gold Cove ∈ RITUAL and plans on releasing the first Gold Cove record next year.
