Comfort Music: Toby Summerfield & Hideaki Noguchi

Toby Summerfield is a guitarist, bassist, pedal steeler; composer, improviser and collaborator. He was an active member of the improvised and rock music communities in Chicago from 2001-2012, playing with Princess Princess, Crush Kill Destroy, Never Enough Hope and many others.  

This solo work is the result of turning inward and exploring his personal approaches to his instruments and the influences of his collaborators on that vocabulary and technique during the loneliness of the pandemic.


Hideaki Noguchi is a musician based in the Chicagoland area. His musical influences draw from ambient, minimalism, post- rock, etc. Music is primarily made with guitars, tape loops, effect pedals, & synths.
