Very excited that Church of the Friendly Ghost asked Nanobangbang to play!
November 23rd (a Sunday) at Salvage Vanguard Theater.

I’ve been composing the percussion: from bass, a spoon, tamborine stick, drum machine, and voice. And placing it in the loop pedal. I have discussed collaborations with Josh Rios, Eric Shaefer, Michael Young, Kai Mantsch, Kevin Adickes, and Chad Allen. I’m stewing up a lot of fun ideas. MORE INFO TO COME!

This venue is perfect for what I’m doing, and with the addition of my focus on percussion, I feel this will be the first real realization of Nanobangbang. Also, three is the magic number, and this is NBB’s third performance, and last– for a while; NBB will have to go on extended hiatus due to other projects and some health issues that need to be put on the forefront.

“There is really no such thing as a musical avant-garde, because enough people are now so ready and desperate for ‘difference’ that nothing experimental stays on the margins. The speed at which information can be disseminated about music forces anybody with something resembling originality to be quickly brought to the zenith of their popularity. Thus their career is prematurely terminated, or more accurately, frozen. Hence the search goes on. Anything now is acceptable, such is the need for novelty. It has revealed that there was never taste, just habits. Now there are only waves of enthusiasm that break and sink into the sand, in endless procession.”

What do you perceive as avant-garde music today..?
