Upcoming Bohemian in Exile shows


Monday, Dec. 14th Keenan Lawler with Nick Schillace at Le Petit Zinc
Lutist Jozef Van Wissem had to cancel his portion of this duo tour, but that gives Monday's billing even more resonance with the sudden passing last week of guitarist Jack Rose. Both Keenan and Nick were friends with Jack and played many shows with him around the country, all being leading exponents of American Primitive guitar. Pittsburgh's Keenan Lawler has one of the most unique sounds among his peers, at times resembling southern Indian Carnatic music, at others the expansive sound-scapes of Fred Frith's Guitar Solos, all delivered on resonator guitar. Detroiter Nick Schillace keeps his sources closer to home, drawing on country blues, fiddle tunes and other Americana, but transforming them into the basic vocabulary of his extended compositions. Nick will likely also play resonator guitar, or maybe some 12- string.

Le Petit Zinc will open for the evening performance, starting at 8 pm. $5 minimum donation. 1055 Trumbull Ave., at Howard.
