Hi, folks! The latest Artist Shop newsletter is out and you'll find it in its entirety at <http://www.artist-shop.com/news.htm>. But here's a little excerpt from it that will be of interest to loopers. We have an exciting new release available from LoLo Records <http://www.artist-shop.com/lolorec>, Forever Sharp and Vivid: DAVID TORN - guitar CHRIS MASSEY - drums DAVID CASTIGLIONE - bass clarinet, sax The music of the newly formed eclectic trio, FOREVER, SHARP & VIVID, is draped across the influences of jazz and rock by one of the most accomplished improvising guitarist in the last two decades. DAVID TORN being of both worlds, with his amiable exploratory spirit and forever evolving loop effects, provides the framework for this group which includes fellow New Yorkers, drummer CHRIS MASSEY and multi-reed player DAVID CASTIGLIONE. Massey and Castiglione, probing and jabbing like prize-fighters, bob and weave behind Torn's multiple layers conjuring up ghosts of early Tony Williams / Bobby Hutcherson experiments or Terje Rypdals "Descendre" era explorations. Also, Bon Lozaga of Gongzilla tells me that they are planning a tour of the midwest to take place in November and/or January. I have seen nothing but rave reviews of their performances during their recent east coast tour. Bon says they would like to set up gigs as a double bill with local progressive bands with a strong following. If you're associated with a venue or local progressive band that is interested in bringing Gongzilla to your town, then drop me a note and I'll forward it to Bon. Spread the word.
