While Axolotl originally included members William Sabiston and Brian Tester, since 2005 it has been a primarily solo outing on Bauer's part. Axolotl began in 2002 in Brooklyn, New York. Most notable in his music is his use of the violin or viola and his vocals, though he often uses many instruments including electronics, synths and various percussion.
