Twisting and winding

I hit the road to Hintonburg last week for a show at General Assembly; the garage turned art space was hosting a show on the experimental side, with Bill Nace and Chris Corsano, a.k.a. Vampire Belt, and Horseman, Pass By. HPB is the work of local avant-gardists Mark Molnar and Bennett Bedoukian. Here's Mark on cello!

On to Vampire Belt; last time I saw Chris Corsano, he was accompanying Bill Orcutt at Raw Sugar (Mark Molnar was on that bill, too). This time his accomplice is Bill Nace, who like Corsano has worked with a slew of other artists in the improv-experimental-avant-garde sphere. Hes probably best known for his recent work with Kim Gordon of Sonic Youth in Body/Heat. Here's Chris!

And here's Bill.
