The Durians Concert History

The Durians are an Atlanta four-piece whose quest is the sound of the absolutely immediate. Within this quest nests something new: the poem as musical instrument, the evocative values of text neither greater nor less than those asserted by music. Narrative, or the lack thereof, completely informs their improvisations. Or not. The result? A sonic pinwheel of horseplay, utter conviction, and the carefully crafted in advance, creating an aural experience that rewards the careful listener.
