Around the turn of the century Chora’s trajectory to their astral plane became clear in Sheffield where, along with emerging kindred spirits, they represented a fresh trian - gulation of the northern free music family. Undergoing a formative period of obsessive improvising, composing, recording and promoting gigs for like-minded touring mu - sicians the core duo of Ben Morris and Robert Lye upped sticks and migrated south. They now reside in London, and frequently collaborate with respected solo artist Ben Nash. In recent years they have also joined forces with likes of Pascal Nichols, Karl Brummer & Patrick Farmer.

They have also shared a stage with likes of: Psychic TV, Wolf Eyes, Rhys Chatham, Corsano/Flower, No Neck Blues Band, Smegma to name but a few..
