Mary Halvorson: Clone Decay

Fri Apr 7, 8:30 – 11 pm

Hosted by Firehouse 12
Details This project marks the first time meeting between these three musicians, featuring new compositions for two trombones and guitar, augmented by electronics and processing, to create a sound that begins as an acoustic trio and morphs into something else entirely.

Guitarist, composer and MacArthur Fellow Mary Halvorson has been called NYC’s least-predictable improviser” (Howard Mandel, City Arts), the most forward-thinking guitarist working right now” (Lars Gotrich, NPR.org) and one of today’s most formidable bandleaders” (Francis Davis, Village Voice).

The most important thing is to find your own voice. More than perhaps any other guitarist working today, in jazz or elsewhere, she has succeeded at that deceptively simple aspiration. Hear her play once and you’ll recognize her anywhere: as a soloist, as a leader or accompanist in any number of ensembles, in duos with players from the worlds of avant-garde improvisation or warped indie rock.” ‑Pitchfork
