Gallery Bryan Eubanks, Andrew Lafkas, and Vic Rawlings (NYC, NYC, and Boston) bass, electronics, and cello/electronics Jack Wright, Ben Bennett, and Jon Barrios (Easton, PA, Columbus, OH, and Philadelphia, PA) sax, drums, and bass Tim Albro and Ian Fraser (Philadelphia) guitar, electronics, laptop A real treat for those who love names; there's eight of them in this show. Our most "improv-y" show yet has the potential to reveal some real surprises and some real gems. Bryan Eubanks and Andrew Lafkas have been playing together for years, not so much developing as honing a super-focused, minimal yet rich wealth of electronic tones and bass bowings. It's held together by their impeccable taste, restraint, and sense of timing. Local geniuses Jack Wright and Jon Barrios are to be joined my mystery man Ben Bennett on percussion, but if their audio clip and past performances of Barrios and Wright are anything to go on, this should be fantastic. An acoustic counterpoint to the other two sets of gritty electronics. Tim Albro are Ian Fraser are two Philly stalwarts who share an affinity for surprise and constant tweaking of their set-ups. Guitars? Laptops? Electronics? CD players? Radios? Some or all of the above should appear, either in thick noisy bursts or in carefully doled out filigrees of sound or maybe both or maybe neither. YOU HAVE TO COME TO FIND OUT.    artist info and audio Vox Populi Gallery, 319 North 11th Street, Third Floor, Philadelphia, PA, $5-10, 8pm. (map) [Past shows] |
