Almost an institution in Portland, Oregon (where he is currently Music Curator at the Yale Union contemporary-art center), Adam Forkner has been making meditative, ambi-tasting, improvised master jams (punctuated with dance-floor rhythms) since the mid-’90s—in collaboration with others in Yume Bitsu and World, Dark Yoga, Surface of Eceon, and solo as [[]] and White Rainbow.
The music of White Rainbow flows through assorted albums on the Kranky, States Rights Records, Marriage Records and Gnar Tapes labels. He has recently self-released several albums via his bandcamp digital storefront. https://whiterainbow.bandcamp.com/music
Beyond his own musical output, Forkner has worked as both an instrumentalist and producer with a wide array of contemporary musicians including Jackie-O Motherfucker, Atlas Sound, Dirty Projectors, D Yellow Swans, YACHT, Adrian Orange, Little Wings, Devendra Banhart and many others.
