A performance Saturday at Barking Legs Theater promises “two unforgettable acts for the price of one,” according to promoters with the Shaking Ray Levi Society and Flying Fingers Productions. On the bill are Faun Fables and duo David Daniell and Douglas McCombs.
* Faun Fables is Dawn McCarthy’s songtelling and vivid imagination come to life at the crossroads where ancient ballad, art song, physical theater and rock music meet, says her bio.
With partner and multi-instrumentalist Nils Frykdahl, McCarthy makes “… music of near-frightening beauty, at times sweetly sad, other times heartrending and disquieting, rendered with an intensity akin to supernatural force,” said a reviewer from Nashville Scene.
* Guitarist David Daniell has built a reputation for being an evocative, nuanced player in the free improv group San Agustin and with his collaborations with notables such as Rhys Chatham, Thurston Moore, Loren Connors and Christian Fennesz.
