POEM TEXT

Amanda Palmer reads "Happiness" by Jane Kenyon

Jessica Moss shares an excerpt of a work in progress, recently recorded live in her rehearsal space, that offers a lovely preview of new material to which concertgoers may find themselves treated in 2018 (alongside her debut opus Pools Of Light).

"Untitled 3" displays various techniques and influences that lie at the heart Moss's solo music: building stacked slow-burn string themes through live looping, sampling and pitch-shifting that beautifully balance drone and melody, gradually introduce further electronic, oscillation and synthesis textures, and channel folkways tropes from Eastern Europe and the Middle East – in this case, gesturing towards the Klezmer tradition perhaps most explicitly since her work in the mid-2000s with Black Ox Orkestar.

Emily Levine reads "You Can't Have It All" by Barbara Ras

Life in motion spits you out
need to relax without a doubt
I recommend a weekend spending time for just indulging

There’s a place that would suit you
it offers a fun point of view
it’s quite far out from all the trials and traps of broken cities

Oh, Jaunty View!
somewhere built for you
make of it whatever works for you
stay for a week or two
would you?, would you?

Check in via the sliding doors
the porter guides you to your floor
then your stay is truly just a lottery of amusements

There’s a weird little room in the basement
Disco underground
Then jump for a giggle on the ceiling
Weirdos hear that sound and fly

Stroll in the fields with the tall blooming trees and wonder
Dip in the pool with the water of blue and wonder
How could you ever go back home?
family and friends don't need to know
We care about you
you fit within our point of view
just book a lifelong stay
and watch your problems fly away
it’s up to you…

If you leave Jaunty View
please come back and visit soon
remember our policy for clientele satisfaction
