ARQ

**ARQ** is an adventurous Australian trio blending jazz, electronic experimentation, and immersive live performance into a genre-defying sound. Known for their improvisational flair and collaborative spirit, the group features trumpeter/composer Peter Knight (of Australian Art Orchestra), bassist Tamara Murphy, and violinist Hollis Taylor. Their work often feels like a sonic journey, weaving acoustic textures with electronic soundscapes, as heard in tracks like "Croajingolong Bushwalk" (named after a national park) and the hypnotic "Semaphore (Live)." Recent releases like "Short Stories" and "A Magic Life" showcase their knack for crafting evocative musical narratives, while live recordings highlight their spontaneous, conversation-like interplay. Whether drifting through ambient moods or igniting rhythmic grooves, ARQ’s music feels both thoughtfully composed and thrillingly alive.
