As a main contributor in the Philadelphia art and sound collective Need New Body, which fused improvisation with popular song structures, Powell began a career of international recording and performance, creating music at the nexus of art and entertainment. Since 1999, he has collaborated, recorded, and toured worldwide with a diverse spectrum of artists and musicians, including the Sun Ra Arkestra, Yoko Ono, and the Boredoms. Powell\u2019s work in the eclectic and high energy Philadelphia band Man Man (ANTI- Records) has helped focus his talent as a leader in the live performance context. Together with Griffin Rodriguez, Powell explores popular music based on jazz and non-Western rhythms as the Los Angeles production duo Icy Demons. His latest projects include Adventuredrum, a conceptually-based performance Powell composes for an ensemble of drummers, Spaceship Aloha, a solo project mixing Polynesian-infused beats in an electronic soundscape, GRANT$, a hip hop duo with artist Tim Fite, and Mash Up Body, a collaboration with avant-garde choreographer Kate Watson-Wallace.<\/p>\n<h3><a href=\"http:\/\/www.sunflightsmusic.com\">The Sun Flights<\/a><\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" size-medium wp-image-167 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/sebastianpetsu.com\/doubledecker\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/10978487_701827949932178_1782381556591711762_n-300x300.jpg\" alt=\"Sun Flights\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sebastianpetsu.com\/doubledecker\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/10978487_701827949932178_1782381556591711762_n-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/sebastianpetsu.com\/doubledecker\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/10978487_701827949932178_1782381556591711762_n-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/sebastianpetsu.com\/doubledecker\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/10978487_701827949932178_1782381556591711762_n.jpg 612w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><a href=\"https:\/\/thesunflights.bandcamp.com\/album\/house-of-man\">The Sun Flights<\/a>, comprised of Natalie Butts and Claire Duncombe, are an experimental folk duo based out of the Philadelphia area.
