Music news Jazz, noise and headcleaning music in Grant Park Wed. night
Posted by Chad Radford @ChadRad on Fri, Mar 20, 2009 at 9:38 PM
On Wednesday night a slew of jazz, noise and otherwise headcleaning sounds are making a stand at Capsule in Grant Park (in the former Youngblood space on Glennwood Ave. SE and Waldo Street SE near I-20/Boulevard).
Thurston Moore of Sonic Youth says of headling act, Michigan reeds/electronics duo Slither, "If two improvising horns in fug-mind gut interplay is not jazz then the form is dead. We say it is more alive than anyone in moldy fig land will ever know at this point. Slither is excellent reed street waste. Today’s jazz for today’s playboys."
Also performing...
Steve Kenne of Wolf Eyes' side-project Demons also plays a set of solo synth.
New Pledgemast (member of The Jasons playing solo vocals and electronics.
DJ Dirty Pillowz (member of of local long-standing noise improv. act Zandosis wielding turntables, broken records and a bent mind).
It should be noted that the show will end early. Music starts and 9 p.m. and will wrap up at 11 p.m. sharp. Cost is $5.
