Mary Halvorson & Jessica Pavone, The Human, Words For Snow - Saturday 8/1

[New Thing Productions]

If you make it to one show this year... this should be the one!

Mary Halvorson & Jessica Pavone have collectively been featured in The
New York Times, Jazz Review, The Wire, Time Out New York, Time Out
Chicago, The New York Press, Jazztimes, All About Jazz, BBC and
Downbeat. From the collaborative minds and nimble fingers of Mary
Halvorson (Guitar, Vocals) and Jessica Pavone (Viola, Vocals) come a
minimalist rendering of emotions and themes, performed with stark
clarity and introspection. Touring in support of their new Thirsty Ear
CD Thin Air: “Thin Air” is a presentation involving their vast talents
as musicians, vocalists and poets. Their lyrics borrow from themes
relating to everything from human relationships and travelling to more
abstract and intangible elements. These melodies are offered in a
sparse yet effervescent style that make the listener feel as though
they are sitting right next to them, much like an impromptu
coffeehouse performance. Both intimate and forward thinking, this
release is a true example of the power of thought, through a unique
blending of avant folk with jazz underpinnings.
