Xiu Xiu

I should have said this sooner, but touring with Xiu Xiu was like erdbeeren mit schlagsahne. We'll confirm what you already know: they're an incredible band and wonderful people. It was completely inspiring and bar-raising to witness them over the course of six shows. It also gave us time to fall deeper into the heart-shredding, juice-pumping, gut-drenching whirlpool of concussion that is their music. Wow!

VIDEOTECA

The Portuguese blog Bodyspace invited us to make a video of a live performance. We shot this video back in April, before we left for tour, with the help of the inimitable Dominic Santos and Mike Harrison. Coincidentally, at the same time we were invited by Joseph Del Pesco to do an installation and performance at the Berkeley Art Museum, so we shot the video there beneath the blue parachute that we hung from the ceiling.

Musica Nella Valle

We would like to thank the people at the Musica Nella Valle festival in San Martino Spino for a hot, wet Italian weekend. Fresh grass, green corn, new friends, laughter and tears, lambrusco and gnocco frito overcame us. Amazing music and company. Thank you.
