Who We Are | Gloaming Project

Art, for us, is an ongoing, visceral dialogue with existence itself. Our collaboration is built on an intuitive exchange, where movement and sound intertwine, shaping and reshaping in an unfolding conversation. We do not approach our work with a rigid agenda or a demand for resolution; instead, we surrender to sensation, memory, and curiosity.

To create is to be fully present--to follow instinct as it meanders between beauty and unease. There is no singular truth to be uncovered, but a shared space where, for a moment, we can step outside of time, unearth forgotten sensations, and remember what it is to be exquisitely human.

David Kamm – Music Director, Composer, Guitarist

David is a genre-blurring guitarist and composer whose work spans punk, folk, jazz, mountain music, and Chinese folk traditions. Emerging from Burlington’s 1990s music scene, he played with groups like Famous Potato and The Billionaires before evolving into a solo artist with a refined, fingerstyle acoustic sound. His album Saudade has been called a “modest masterpiece”—unassuming in style, but rich with emotional clarity and simple truths. As a music director and composer, David has collaborated extensively with Djahari Clark on productions including Cloud Cuckooland, The Ballad Tree, and Mountain Madness immersive experiences.
