Sound Series: Thurston Moore: Music + Radio Radieux: Film

Friday, February 9, 2018, 8 p.m.

A man stands at the center of the black and white photograph. He is wearing a dark blazer over a flannel shirt that has the first few buttons undone. Although the background is blurred, it appears as if he is standing outside, surrounded by trees.

We welcome the inimitable songwriter/guitarist Thurston Moore to the museum’s intimate theater. On a brief solo acoustic tour, Moore will perform in front of atmospheric film projection, utilized on a recent tour with Yoko Ono. Known as a founder of the iconic underground/alternative rock band, Sonic Youth, Moore has also worked with a wide range of musicians such as John Zorn, David Toop, Cecil Taylor, Faust, and Glenn Branca. His most recent album with The Thurston Moore Group, Rock n Roll Consciousness, was recorded in The Church studios in London with producer Paul Epworth.

Doors open at 7:30 p.m. Free parking available in The Warhol lot.

This event is co-presented with WYEP.
