Plant is an experimental duo bringing together Éric Normand and Jim Denley in a practice rooted in total improvisation. Their approach is simultaneously playful, radical, and uncompromising, embracing loss of control and the unknown as creative forces.
Their technical setup is intentionally minimal: a plant and an amplifier serve as the core elements, around which objects, conventional instruments, and even fruit are drawn into the sonic environment. The result is music that oscillates between fragility and striking intensity.
Plant's performances blur the boundaries between experimental music, performance art, and instrumental theatre, challenging conventional ideas of what an instrument is and how it can be used.

Their performances are driven by an energy that embraces unpredictability and the unknown, drawing on performance art and instrumental theatre alongside experimental music. Their minimal technical rider — a plant and an amplifier — anchors a practice that uses objects, instruments, and unconventional materials to create music that is both fragile and intensely present.
