Girls And God/ Tres Gone
Experimental
Here are two amazing noise/improvisational jazz acts. One is East Coast; one is West Coast. On Side A, Girls and God takes us through a doughnut-rich four-part song cycle of avant garde electric guitar/vocal harmonies that recall David Byrne and Brian Eno. Girls and God is NYC guitarist/composer David Scanlons solo project. You might know him as one of the main forces behind Killer BOB, or from one of his curatorial/performance stints at John Zorns space, The Stone. On Side B, Tres Gone (Portland) team up with vocalist and storyteller Jennifer Robin for the wildly entertaining The Ballad of Rose with No Clothes and Deans Sugary Cream Doughnut. Tres Gone, formed by members of the Gone Orchestra, is all-star team of Portlands 40-and-over noise scene, featuring Mike Mahaffay, John Jensen, Mike Lastra, Eric Hausmann and Scott Steele.
