Talking Pictures at the Cultch

As a description, “excellent & baffling music” seems as good as any for what Talking Pictures will be doing at the Cultch on Saturday (November 7). At least that’s what it says on the event poster, which also proclaims that the local quartet will be sharing the stage (and an upcoming recording project) with the Seattle-based husband-and-wife team of Wayne Horvitz and Robin Holcomb. He sometimes sounds like a postmodern Thelonious Monk, only funkier; she writes wonderfully enigmatic art songs; and their Canadian friends excel at scoring movies for the mind. It’s a match made in heaven.
