While attending Yale University, Alexander Dubovoy and Eli Brown played in the quartet Newspeak. They are featured on its debut album Machinery of Night, recorded by 11-time Grammy-winner Jack Renner. After touring domestically and internationally, Newspeak put its work on hold after its older members graduated. Now, Dubovoy and Brown have moved to London and will be playing their first gig together in the UK at Map Studio Café. They will play improvised duo music, including old and new repertoire, as part of this reunion.
