New work by Moby Pomerance!

"He knows four words of English and his name is one of them. He’s pale and skinny with long hair and a more than a little devilish goatee. Even more sinister, he brings a violin. To a blues jam. That’s bringing a rock to a gun fight."

The Gitter Cranicals 7: When the Devil comes, show him the skinny kid from Silesia.

New work by Moby Pomerance!

"He was racing over pentatonic scales picking out every note with a level of technique I had never heard in him before – and I never heard in him afterwards. He was using grace notes and passing-tones, furious chromatic runs - I couldn’t keep up, and I was standing right underneath him. I had studied his playing for years – but not this. I had nothing for this. Forget both ends, he was burning his candle with a blow-torch, right in the middle."

"He steps down from the stage, microphone in hand, grabs a chair and swivels it around, mounting it backwards in a move somewhere between the lead singer of AC/DC and Cher when she’s humping the cannon."

New work by Moby Pomerance!

"Why would I play the stupid guitar again after all this time? It wasn’t bad enough the first go around? I hear some guys like to get urinated on by hookers. I bet it’s more ennobling than this."

New work by Moby Pomerance!

"12 years since I last played in front of an audience, and it seems I’ve developed something new. Apparently, to a bystander, it’s almost indistinguishable from watching someone have a stroke."
