As the saxophonist for Electropolis (featuring Kelly Rossum, Michael O'Brien, and Steve Roehm) Minneapolis' avantfunkpunkacidchazz pioneers, Ferrier explores strange and unpredictable new worlds of sound.

Ferrier also currently performs with Improvised Explosive Device with ex-downtown NYC scenester Chris Cunningham (James Chance, Anton Fier, Gavin Friday, Marianne Faithfull) and James Patrick (of Dinkytowner DJ fame). IED uses multi media to 'blow up' musical icons or pop culture inflences and recalibrates them for re-consumption, creating lush musical landscapes and intense visual scenery.

As an artist, Ferrier tries to stick with the simple, eschewing the over-intellectualization of experimental and improvisational music, and searches for ways to infuse expressiveness into the machines he employs.
