Tōth and Wendy Eisenberg

Tōth will be playing all new unreleased material from a new album coming out in 2025. Tōth will sing, play nylon string guitar, trumpet and piano accompanied by Carmen Quill on upright bass and Emily Gleason on harmony vocals.

Wendy Eisenberg is an improvising guitarist, banjo player, songwriter, composer, and poet based in Western Massachusetts. Using the languages of free jazz, extreme metal, art song, and Tin Pan Alley, her music explores the questions surrounding the linguistic, representation, and technical demands placed on the body. This evening’s performance spotlights material in the language of the album she released on VDSQ, a label dedicated to the future of acoustic solo guitar music. Her guitar music has as much to do with the histories and languages of the guitar that she leaves out as it does with the languages she invents. This program of solo guitar music will integrate some of her sung material, but will primarily live in the rarefied, aesthetic world that the “Its Shape Is Your Touch” record introduces to you.

Aggie Miller is a 4 piece band from New York. The music is kind of like Sondheim, kind of like St Vincent. Mostly she just really hopes you know what she means by all of it.
