Dither's Invisible Dog Extravaganza!

The acclaimed electric guitar quartet Dither announces the 2011 Invisible Dog Extravaganza! Friday, July 8, 7:00 pm to midnight at the Invisible Dog Art Center in downtown Brooklyn. The Extravaganza boasts an eclectic bill that features an array of experimental sounds, presented by composers and performers notorious for carving out unique musical niches. Supported by the Brooklyn Arts Council and sponsored by Brooklyn Brewery, admission for the entire evening is only $6!
In addition to Dither, the lineup includes renowned guitarist Marc Ribot, powerhouse quartet So Percussion, Ches Smith and These Arches (an all-star line-up including Mary Halvorson, Andrea Parkins, and Tim Berne), Ted Hearne and Philip White’s raucous noise group R We Who R We, Sound sculpting vocalist Lesley Flanigan, multi-instrumentalist Nathan Koci, and a multimedia work for suitcase radios by composer Paula Matthusen. Dither will perform works by Phill Niblock, Corey Dargel, Lisa R. Coons, Joshua Lopes, and Travis Just.
In 2010, the festival was dubbed the summer’s “official concert on the edge” by The New Yorker, a description that Dither’s artistic directors state accurately captures the vanguard purpose of the event: to present exciting and exploratory artists in performances that welcome listeners into the sphere of the creative process.
