My friend Mol­ly Maher is host­ing a new duets series in down­town St. Paul, Two X Deux—déli­cieuse­ment français!—and was gra­cious enough to invite me and a friend into a slot. I’ll be team­ing up with my bass play­ing pal Cody McK­in­ney for a fun night of heavy and elec­tron­i­cal­ly-inspired rhythm sec­tion impro­vi­sa­tion. This will be the first time I’ve used my hybrid drums-into-Able­ton set­up in an improv set­ting ver­sus a care­ful­ly arranged setlist, so I’m imag­in­ing the odds of the set com­plete­ly implod­ing on itself are pret­ty high, guar­an­tee­ing an inter­est­ing show (for you), and a chance to run through some pre-writ­ten apolo­gies (for me).

If you’re around the St. Paul area this Tues­day evening, it’d be great to see you there.
