Frank London & Friends Meets Frantic Turtle
Two Generations of Jewish Avantgarde: Frank London & Friends Meets
Frantic Turtle
Bowery Poetry Club 7.30pm
308 Bowery St
New York City, New York 10012
Grammy-winning downtown legend Frank London (Klezmatics) brings
together a band of seasoned improvisers to play a set of free-jazz
explorations of Ethiopian music. Opening for him is the
jazz-poetry/avant-punk outfit Frantic Turtle, with a set of ecstatic
antinomian poetics, Hebraic archetypes washed in the exegetical Tonic,
straight no chaser from Toledo basements and into New York
underground. The concluding collaboration session will rip through
age-roofs and convention-chairs!!
$6
