Timeline

1959

Roy Montgomery (born 1959) is a composer, guitarist and lecturer from Christchurch, New Zealand.

Montgomery's mostly instrumental solo works have elements of post-rock, lo-fi, folk and avant-garde experimentation.

His signature sound might be described as atmospheric or cinematic, often featuring complex layers of chiming, echoing and/or droning guitar phrases.

He is currently head of the Environmental management department at Lincoln University in New Zealand.

Montgomery was born in 1959 in London, England and moved with his family to Cologne in Germany where he lived until the age of four.

His father was German and his mother was from the UK.

As his mother worked for the British Forces Broadcasting Service, Montgomery was exposed mostly to the pop music of the United States rather than the music of Germany.

1960

In the mid-1960s he moved with his mother to Christchurch, New Zealand.

1980

Montgomery has played in several New Zealand bands since 1980, most notably The Pin Group, Dadamah, Dissolve and Hash Jar Tempo.

He has released solo albums on labels including Kranky and Drunken Fish, as well as collaborations with artists like Flying Saucer Attack and Grouper.

Music critic Brett Abrahamsen opined that "in a just and fair world... books would be written about Montgomery's greatness."

In 1980, he formed The Pin Group with bass player Ross Humphries and drummer Peter Stapleton.

1981

The group debuted with the single "Ambivalence" in 1981, the first-tied single on newly founded label Flying Nun Records (released the same week as the Clean's "Tally Ho!").

1982

They recorded a handful of singles, an EP, and only performed inside New Zealand before disbanding in January 1982.

Montgomery had been composing and recording acoustic work since 1982, much of which he would integrate into his 1990s work.

Although he enjoys collaborating with other artists, Montgomery is mostly drawn to working alone, which he attributes to growing up as an only child.

1990

Montgomery later worked with Stapleton again in Dadamah, formed in 1990.

Montgomery completed a master's thesis titled "Thou shalt take into account the principles of the Treaty of Waitangi and/or consider Maori cultural, traditional, and spiritual values": implications for research management at Lincoln University in 1990.

1994

He travelled through America from 1994 to 1995 after his wife Jo passed away in 1992.

He spent time in New York in a sub-let apartment writing music by himself on a four-track recorder, where he recorded Scenes from the South Island, Temple IV, and some singles.

Montgomery described Scenes from the South Island as “about being away from your home country.

I’ve never tired of the imagery that generated the album, and those landscapes are still places I go to, physically or in my mind.

Those visions of space and atmosphere – the absence of busy, human life – populate a lot of what I do.

1995

It’s regenerative, an existential thing.” Scenes from the South Island was released in 1995 on Drunken Fish, and Temple IV was released on Kranky in 1996.
