From Autumn To Ashes Drummer Lines Up NYC Jazz Show For Tomorrow

Saturday, August 9, 2008

Jeff Gretz of FROM AUTUMN TO ASHES has posted the following update:

“Trevor Dunn (Mr. Bungle, Fantomas, part-time MELVIN, etc) and Shelly Burgon are curating The Stone this month and were kind enough to give me a slot, so I wrote some music and put together a band to play it.

The result it an 8 part song cycle conceptually inspired by the Spiritual Research Foundations classification of different types of other-worldly inhabiters. I’m calling it “punk/jazz” for a lack of a better description. Jazz charts, for the most part handled with the subtlety of a hammer, with carefully placed moments of free-improv. In case you are unfamiliar, The Stone is a non-profit venue that is geared towards focusing on music of an experimental nature. 100% of the door goes to the musicians. There is no bar, no drinks. Just a room with music. The venue survives from donations and the musicians that inhabit it.”
