    Eiko & Koma and Kronos Quartet: Fragile 

    Eiko & Koma and Kronos Quartet: Fragile

    At the Clarice Smith Performing Arts Center

    Photo

    I once described Kronos Quartet as the one music that I could be on a desert island with, and not go insane. They are versatile, and miraculous. Since they are the artist in residence at Clarice Smith Performing Arts Center, I’m expecting to get a lot of them in the near future.

    The day after attending, I still remember the nuances of the performance. Now that consider, the nuances were the highlights.  I sat on the floor, on a pillow, ten feet in front of Eiko & Koma, and behind them sat Kronos Quartet. It was amazing to be so close, so intimate. Eiko & Koma’s eyes slowly opening, and looking directly at me, reminding me of the fragile, and how lifeless we can become.

    Second Story Man Live at the instore 

    Carrie Neumayer‘s band, Second Story Man,  played EarXTacy today for their album release. It was a real treat getting to hear them. They didn’t bring their drums to the instore, something about the economy and having to sell them to buy some presents and the drums are at Doo Wop.

    Second Story Man is:
    Evan Bailey (drums, keyboard & vocals)
    Jeremy Irvin (guitar & vocals; and founder of Landmark Recordings)
    Carrie Neumayer (guitar & vocals)
    Kelly Scullin (singer/ songwriter/ bass player)

      Is that your son on the xylophone?

      Actually, Chris, my son, was not playing. He went home because he was sick & forgot his shirt.
