Guest performers include Dave Rick (King Missile, Yo La Tengo), Dave Rick (King Missile, Yo La Tengo, Phantom Tollbooth), Ben Miller (Destroy All Monsters) Jason Martin and Marc Arsenault of The Brown Cuts Neighbors and Michael from the Dust Devils.

Musicians: Steven Cerio (drums, xylophone, organ, piano, synth, bass,  theremin, wood flute), Kristin Hersh (voice), Bryan Kieser (cornet, alto & tenor sax, homemade horns), Georgette Nicolaides (violin), Greg Pier (guitar, pedal steel), Ben Miller (prepared guitar, baritone guitar), Scott Oliver (guitar, harmonica), David Beaver (guitar, harmonica), Jim Gibson (guitar), Dave Rick (guitar), Marc Arsenault (guitar), Pablo Ahna (guitar), Michael DustDevil (guitar), Jason Martin (guitar), Emily Pawlyk (flute), Karen Langlie (cello), Roger Kummert (bass), John Bateman (bass), Sonisk Blodbad (electronics), Frank Paul Schubert (alto sax on “Bad Weather Shapes”)

Apart from his long career as a visual artist, Steven Cerio was the drummer for 1990s New York bands Railroad Jerk, Dee Dee Ramone’s Sprocket and Drunktank. He has also performed with Jad Fair (Half Japanese), Ron Asheton (Stooges), and free jazz legends William Parker and Jemeel Moondoc.

“Mirroring the dream-like quality of the visual layers, the music, too is a constantly morphing soundscape, recorded by Cerio and involving a lush lineup of great players, including members of Destroy All Monsters and Yo La Tengo all swishing around under the huskily-voiced narration of Throwing Muses‘ Kristin Hersh.” — Matt Lee, The Big Takeover
