Lewis & Clarke: Lewis & Clarke is Lou Rogai, American musician, singer,
songwriter, record producer, and composer. For over two decades, he has
crafted a distinctive sound of art-pop/avant-folk, characterized by expanding
and contracting songs and lineups. The name references the fellowship and
correspondence between C.S. Lewis and Arthur C. Clarke, not the 19th-century
explorers. Rogai releases music in a fiercely independent manner on his
imprint La Société Expéditionnaire, his approach and philosophy are a
result of his involvement in the early 90’s PA DIY punk/hardcore scene.

Fursaxa: After playing in bands like UN with Marcia Bassett (Double
Leopards), Tara Burke began her solo project Fursaxa at the turn of the
century. Taking a page out of Philadelphia's Ambient Consortium and the Bardo
Pond school of acid-folk space exploration, Fursaxa also brings to mind
elements of religious music, from church choirs to raga drones. Burke employs
guitar, casio, Farfisa organ, accordion, dulcimer, effected vocals, drums,
bells, flutes, and the kitchen sink without ever losing her otherworldly
focus. —Jason Sigal
