Royal Room is pleased to present Thollem in three diverse iterations, and host the release show for HPOH’s This Day's Called Tuesday (Personal Archives Records)

HPOH is Hot Pursuit Of Happiness, Thollem’s new moniker for his 21st Century one-human band. This is Thollem as a singer-songwriter, live beat maker and producer all rolled up into one. HPOH gives us a unique brew of pop sensibilities, global music & radical sonic exploration about subjective reality, love & justice in a polarized world. These original songs include layers of sounds that Thollem manipulates in thrilling and unexpected ways to accompany his vocals that “knot together philosophical koans about the nature of existence.” – Iggy Pot, LIVEEYE TV

Worlds In A Life is a live remix of the six Thollem/Cline Trio albums including collaborations with William Parker, Michael Wimberly, Pauline Oliveros, Terry Riley, Nels Cline and Thollem. “Glaring expressionism coupled with rip-roaring layers of acoustic-electric sound-sculpting maneuvers.” – Glenn Astarita, All About Jazz NY

Thollem/DuRoche: Trio Music Minus One for André Stjames
On March 1st, 2018 Thollem and Tim DuRoche released 'Live In Our Time' on ESP_disk in trio with André Stjames. This was one of only a handful of concerts the trio was able to perform before André's sudden illness and death less than 3 months after the release of the album. Whenever Thollem is in the NW they come together in André's memory, which absolutely also means to live in our time. “A wonderful synergy that churns and flows like a storm or a Jackson Pollock painting.” - Oregon Artswatch

Thollem tours perpetually throughout North America and Europe. We are excited to have him in Seattle!
