Kronos Quartet performs “Bloodstone” (co arranged by Stephen Prutsman and Michael Winger)

Kronos Quartet performed 4 shows in San Francisco last week at Theater Artaud, including a piece by Amon Tobin that I co-arranged with Stephen Prutsman. Stephen arranged all the string quartet parts while I did the sound design, resampling and mutating of Amon Tobin’s own mutations of his recordings of Kronos that appeared on his album “Foley Room”. So the arrangement is a little like a mirror looking into a mirror.
?Kronos debuted our arrangement of Bloodstone at the SF Jazz festival 2 years ago when they performed and debuted another piece by Wilco’s drummer Glen Kotche.

Solo performance at the Union Room on March 10 with Jim Bruno, Jake Flood and Nancy Hall

I’ll be performing this Wednesday night at the Union Room in San Francisco at 8pm. This will be my first solo performance since 2001 or 2002 (I can’t really remember). I’ll be playing a short set of original tunes and playing with several other fine songwriters, including, Jim Bruno, whose album I produced in 2006. It’s only $5 bucks, so come on out and have a beer with me as I attempt to remember how to play the guitar in front of an audience.
