Zentown

A few weeks ago I had the opportunity to get together with my friends Bridget Cross and George Kuhar of Maybe it’s Reno before they took off for their SXSW debut. A night talking about poetry and music led us to the conclusion that we should do a little collaboration in the studio and it was a blast. Here are a few tracks from the session that George decided to call, Zentown (because everything out of Portland is town something, bridgetown, stumptown…) It’s all a bit rough, but I’m really happy with a few of the poems featured here especially the first poem, “Black Blood, White Flesh” which I wrote in the studio. It was inspired by a live score that Bridget and George performed to the old silent vampire movie, Nosferatu in Juneau, AK in 2008.
