Artist description instant-communication improvisation incorporating every style and approach we can remember. we joke around. seriously. everyone has fun. every moment is unexpected, but seems completely logical in hindsight (logic is a twisty demon that is itself very illogical). simple surface, complex underlying social structure. not pretentious at all, i promise.

Artist History all 4 of us went to oberlin conservatory of music together. byrne stopped. the rest of us are still there. we've only played about 5 times together. it always seems to work well. we all have many musical lives, as composers, jazz players, classical players, murderers, vegetables, formica, dance floors, bon jovi, shopping carts.
