Chris Corsano is an American improviser based in Chicago, Illinois.[1][2][3]
Early life
Corsano picked up the drums after seeing his half-brother Tony playing. Corsano's first drum set had Animal from the Muppets on the bass, and he largely is self-taught, tapping along to a boom box. Capt. Beefheart, the Minutemen, and Mitch Mitchell served as early influences, depriving Corsano of a desire for pristine technique.
"As long as there are basements in Northern New Jersey, there will be cheap, used and fucked-up drum sets available to young upstarts who don't know any better, from men with thin mustaches and cut off jeans," Corsano says about his childhood.
Career
Corsano has performed [1][3] with artists including Bjork, Evan Parker,[4] Sunburned Hand of the Man,[5] Six Organs of Admittance,[6] Dredd Foole,[7] Bill Orcutt,[8] Kim Gordon,[8] Björk (on the studio recording and world tour for Volta),[9] Thurston Moore,[10] Jim O'Rourke,[11] Jandek,[12] Matt Valentine,[9] Nels Cline,[13] Vibracathedral Orchestra,[14] Cold Bleak Heat,[15] Michael Flower,[16] C. Spencer Yeh,[17] Mette Rasmussen,[18] John Edwards,[19] Sylvie Courvoisier,[20] Okkyung Lee,[21] and Nate Wooley.[22]
Corsano has performed with saxophonist Paul Flaherty for more than twenty years and on more than twenty records in a style they call "The Hated Music."[1][23] He has also recorded several albums each with Rangda (trio with Sir Richard Bishop and Ben Chasny),[24] Chikamorachi (duo with Darin Gray),[25] and Vampire Belt (duo with Bill Nace).[26]
Corsano received a Foundation for Contemporary Arts Grants to Artists award in 2017.[1]
