Listen "Simon Hanes: Ringmaster"
Episode Synopsis
Composer, musician, bandleader, and Hollywood extra Simon Hanes tells the story of his upbringing in an extended family of California musicians, metal bands, music school in Boston, and projects with Guerilla Toss, JG Thirlwell, and his own genre-busting ensemble, Tredici Bacci, a swirling reflection on Italian soundtracks, Zappa, Bacharach, and delicious chaos, all through the lens of "downtown ethos". Illustrated with audio clips from the band's shows at Roulette in 2017 and 2021.
