Trevor Tunnacliffe is a composer and multi-instrumentalist from Vancouver, Canada. His musical interests draw mostly from the early Renaissance counterpoint treatises, which he first encountered as a viola da gamba player. He plays bass, guitar, and modular synthesizer for Unthunk, his collective project whose music ranges between chamber and pop, including a mix of vocal and instrumental pieces.
