Unravelled Broken Orchestra

Unravelled Broken Orchestra was an avant garde ensemble based in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada. With a core of regular players (Christopher Friesen, Terence Fuller, Jaret McNabb, Fletcher Pratt, Robert Turnbull) and an open-door policy to others, they create soundscapes that were equally inspired by Miles Davis and Sonic Youth. Their debut cd Centre of the Universe in Reverse was independently released late 2005.

In 2009, they changed their name to Broken Orchestra of Winnipeg. In 2012, Friesen and McNabb changed their name to Seafreezing and digitally released the album This is Not a Guarantee, It's a Possibility. They continued to post songs to 2017.
