Roy Montgomery is an experimental guitarist based in Christchurch, New Zealand. Active since the 1980s, his atmospheric, primarily instrumental guitar excursions have been a significant influence on numerous post-rock, space rock, and avant-rock musicians. Following early-'90s records as part of the group Dadamah, he made his solo debut in 1995, issuing several recordings of shimmering, reverb-heavy guitar instrumentals, including the sought-after Temple IV. Collaborations such as Dissolve (with Chris Heaphy) and Hash Jar Tempo (with Bardo Pond) followed, in addition to further well-regarded solo works like 2000's The Allegory of Hearing. Following a mostly quiet 2000s, he made a split LP with Grouper in 2010 and continued issuing material throughout the decade, including the ambitious quadruple album R M H Q: Headquarters (2016) and Suffuse (2018), which included several guest vocalists. He launched another ambitious series of four LPs in 2021, starting with Island of Lost Souls.
Roy Montgomery has also released music as a member of Shallows, Pin Group, Dissolve, Hash Jar Tempo, and Dadamah.
