Open Loose
is a trio with tenor saxophonist Tony Malaby or Ellery
Eskelin and drummer Tom
Rainey or Gerald Cleaver. This group explores the world of open form
improvisation with composed pieces interwoven into the sets. The musicians

adventurous and cohesive improvising.

Marks Brothers
is a bass duo featuring Mark
Dresser and Mark Helias. It has grown out of a twenty
five year friendship and artistic relationship. The two Marks
are very complimentary (distinctly different and compatible) both as composers
and bassists. This allows for a high degree of variety and expression
during their concerts. Their first CD "The Marks Brothers was released
in 2001 on the W.E.R.F. label.
Solo
Bass - Mark Helias has been performing solo bass concerts for
15 years. He has developed a repertoire of his own pieces scored
for bass and adaptations of pieces which he has recorded with his various
ensembles. In addition to being of great interest musically, this
project travels well.
BassDrumBone
is a cooperative trio including the drummer and composer Gerry
Hemingway, trombonist and composer Ray
Anderson and Mark Helias. This group has been performing together
forty years. Over that time the three musicians
have developed an uncanny sense of communication that allows for very
free and disciplined collectivity, regardless of the compositional form
being explored. The group performs pieces by all three members and
has released five albums of their compositions
