STRING THING #2
ANDY MEYERSON

Made by Fae Ordaz and Penina Biddle-Gottesman, the first String Thing was born from a bucket of discarded piano bass strings. Fastened with nails to two blocks of scrap wood, at their best they produced a low resounding thud. A year later the second String Thing came to fruition, this time made of harpsichord strings and a cigar box, fashioned with guitar pegs, heart-shaped holes, and bridges. These strings are strong and thin, bending and stretching with the bodies that animate them. STRING THING #2 exists in the space between the two bodies that wear it, and the bonded trust. They are its backbone. Without them it makes no sound.

San Francisco based percussionist and Artistic Director of The Living Earth Show ANDY MEYERSON peforms solo and with special guests.
