“Hooker’s aesthetic and fearless, groundbreaking path is perfectly summed up in the title of his latest effort, Convergence… This live, recorded document deconstructs the blues, experimental rock, funk and improvisatory noise with sonically heavy abandon.”
— The New York City Jazz Record

Convergence is a new live album from William Hooker featuring guitarist John King. Recorded at the B10 Festival in Shenzhen, China on October 25, 2024, it captures an exhilarating set shaped by the audience’s energy and deep mutual connection. Hooker’s thunderous drumming meets King’s walls of distorted guitar in an expansive, hour-long performance of raw intensity, recorded direct from the soundboard. The music moves fluidly between intensity and restraint, structure and spontaneity.

The album stands as a document of cross-cultural exchange and creative freedom, reinforcing Hooker’s decades-long legacy as a leading force in avant-garde music while showcasing a compelling collaboration with King.
