April 19-May 17
Opening April 18, 8PM

Records brings together some aspects of Canada’s
art/noise/new-music scene from the prolific noodlings
of the All-Star Schnauzer Band, the dulcet tones of July
4th Toilet, London, Ontario’s influential Nihilist Spasm Band,
as well as some recent New Music street performances
produced by the Western Front New Music Programme.
Works in the exhibition include Jason McLean’s costumes
used by July 4th Toilet, musical instruments by Art Pratten,
Toronto filmmaker Zev Asher’s documentary WHAT ABOUT
ME: THE RISE OF THE NIHILIST SPASM BAND, video footage
by Clancy Dennehy (for an upcoming documentary) and other
records and ephemera.
