05/24 @ 8:00pm - Crackleknob (Mary Halvorson/Reuben Radding/Nate Wooley)

Admission: $10

 

Crackleknob:

Mary Halvorson-guitar

Reuben Radding-bass

Nate Wooley-trumpet

 

The mad, scrambling lifestyle of the improvising musician tends to produce fleeting musical relationships, ad hoc combinations which merely meet expectations, and then are seldom repeated. For four years, Reuben Radding, Nate Wooley, and Mary Halvorson, have cultivated a musical and personal friendship that goes way beyond this business-as-usual approach to free music-making. Their sound is a collision of angular melodies, noise, minimalist textures, and jazz-based interplay which mysteriously becomes much more than a sum of these parts due to the group’s willingness to dig deep below the surface.  This performance at Issue Project Room celebrates their new, self-titled release on HatHut Records.
