Blesst Chest, Dragging An Ox Through Water, Process
- 8:00pm Saturday, October 22, 2016
Brian Mumform's Dragging an Ox through Water perform songs rooted in folk and country traditions, though ruptured, complicated, and complimented with broken textures of feedback, drones, tape hiss, and homemade oscillators. Chance elements and candlelight sensitive instruments destabilize customary electro-amplified-tightness & introduce improvisation to the recitation of these songs. Dragging an Ox through Water has releases out on Mississippi Records, Awesome Vistas, Sweet Dreams Press, Stank House, Musical Impressions, & more. Brian also plays in Sun Foot, Deep Fried Boogie Band, Jewelry Rash, & sometimes Jackie-O Motherfucker. He runs a small cassette & CDR label called Musical Impressions (or muim000).
Blesst Chest is a Portland, Oregon based trio playing instrumental, ‘70s-style prog rock. This band has enough heaviosity and groove to balance the asymmetrical bits. The music is rich and inventive, with the bass and guitar frequently playing synchronized melodic lines. Members are: Jake Morris, Jay Winebrenner, and Darrell Bourque.
Process is electro-ruckus Dylan White and Jeremy Hooton based in Portland, OR.
