Hartung Founder and artistic director of the Boise Creative and Improvised Music Festival, Krispen Hartung has been actively involved in the Boise music scene for over 20 years. His contributions include creating new ways for musicians to communicate and collaborate with each other, such as Boise's first musicians web registry (1998), Boise Musicians Internet discussion group, and now for the fourth year, the Boise Creative and Improvised Music Festival. Krispen's efforts have primarily revolved around raising awareness and appreciation of avant-garde and creative music in Boise, Idaho. Krispen Hartung's 30-year musical background is an experimental and continuously evolving road trip marked by many excursions and detours - from flute, classical guitar, progressive rock, and world-beat, to fusion, traditional jazz, and free improvisation. During the last year, Krispen has been recording and performing primarily creative electronic and free improvisation music, focusing more on the tonal character of the guitar. He has produced 15 CD projects, including his most recent live improvisational project "On the Fringe" with Robert Sterling (percussion). Aaron Davis Aaron has been a musician since the age of six, playing primarily piano and keyboards, but also being fairly accomplished in hand-drumming, and barely-competent on the guitar. In the past, Aaron has played keyboards in a fusion group with the festival coordinator, Krispen Hartung, and has also played with many other musicians in various projects. He is, however, a somewhat agoraphobic misanthrope who doesn't get out much.
