Starving Weirdos

***A new release from Humboldt County’s finest contemporary experimental unit, STARVING WEIRDOS. A couple of years in the making, Land Lines documents a vital step in the evolution and refinement of Starving Weridos’ freeform improrvisational practices, as well as its infamous and highly disciplined studio practices. The recording of these sessions was initiated around the time of the 2010 On Land festival in San Francsico, when the project’s core nucleus of BRIAN PYLE (ENSEMBLE ECONOMIQUE) and MERRICK MCKINALY expanded to include a larger than usual cast of players. Land Lines chronicles Starving Weirdos’ most focused and structured release to date, with pieces that import a distinctly European flavor into the sound of what, until now, has been a uniquely Northern California form of sonic experimentation.
