<p>As part of a major concert event at MONA, Andrew Legg formed a new contemporary ensemble (Revelator) to perform the new creative works that have been generated as part of his IRGS and now REGS. This music seeks to recontextualise African American gospel music within a secular Australian performance paradigm. Revelator is made up of the REGS team:</p> <p>Michael Spiby – guitar and vocals<br> Stewart Long – Drums<br> Tony Featherstone – Hammond<br> Martin Duffy – Bass<br> Andrew Legg – piano, guitar and vocals</p> <p>Spiby and Legg write the music together initially, referencing African American music tradition and culture, with the remainder of the ensemble contributing to song construction during the initial recording and subsequent post production processes. Three original songs were performed at this event:</p> <p>Take Me To the Other Side<br> Brand New Joy<br> High On A Mountain</p>
