Crutch Of Memory

Yo PPL- This is an Appleton Drawing Club event. What does that mean? Well, Richard Edge is comin to town for a live performance / drawing session fusion show.

ADC has had many models (and some birds) as subjects before, but never something like this.

Any skill level is welcome to attend and those who'd like to see Richard play but don't wanna draw... Well that's cool too!! Their new album VESPERS just dropped on the Crutch Of Memory label and while you can order it direct through the label, they'll have copies at the show.

There'll be a short posed portrait sitting halfway through the show as a traditional portrait opportunity for those drawing.

It's at our fave art-forward compound in town Photo Opp - Appleton at 7pm and admission is 15 bucks. Register online with Appleton Drawing Club or pay cash at the door.

Gonna be chill!!!

Richard Edge's debut LP, Vespers, plays like a stoned Southern ode to the primitive guitar.

A rushing flood of steel-stringed vibration; pristine; plummeting: higher music not made for a concert hall. Casual like the rubber burning off a pair of sh*tty sneakers on a cooked, overgrown summer sidewalk. It's Richard's vernacular: deeper than dumb- in fact, incredibly deep- a universe of buoyantly drifting particles settling in a creek bed after some buck-toothed kid in cutoff jeans made that poor-man's ocean skin their landing pad.

Call it folk; call it blues; call it punk. It's an outsider classical music with inherent twang. It's a window into Richard's world, and it's the latest installment in Crutch of Memory's irreverent catalog.

's 16 song opus of gleeful cynicism, "I CAN'T EAT" is bulging with such excessive earwormism that it could be difficult to imagine outtakes living among the intakes.

Your imagination isn't fooling you-

The physical cassette version has SIX additional tracks that don't live on the internet ANYWHERE. And they're all killer, no filler:

- Erase My Mind
- I Will Try (Not To Die)
- What's On Your Chest
- Get Your Hands Off My Friend
- I Wonder Why I Always Wonder Why
- I Feel It All Over

We've got a small box-worth of these tape sets still living on our shelves, get your copy before *P**F* they're gone!!
