The
Electro-Acoustic Cupcake Festival is back for its third year, featuring
an incredible
gathering of international improvisers: vocal chameleon Shelley Hirsch
(NYC), Henry
Cow co-founder Tim
Hodgkinson (London) on lap steel and clarinet, Thomas Lehn
on analog synth (Germany), iconoclastic bassist Evan Lipson
(TN/Philly), the Ol' Timey Avant-Garde of the Shaking Ray
Levis (TN), and the incomparable percussionist Roger Turner
(London). Opening the show will be a lesson in gnome
mythology, given by the River of the Pink Lady and Strawberry Pork
Chop.

world” - The
