David Grubbs + Andrea Belfi
Ita/Usa – Drag City
“Dust & Mirrors is unashamedly beautiful, but never banal; fiercely intelligent, never obscure”
London Sunday Times
“Still rooted in the tenets of improvisation and avant-garde exploration that informed its patient predecessor, Dust & Mirrors feels meatier, more exuberant, and more alive.”
All Music
“It would be incorrect to suggest that David Grubbs is at a career peak – that would imply a recent trough – but neither would it be right to say that he has reached some kind of high plateau. His work – as critic, artist, writer, teacher and musician – is too protean and multi-dimensional for that. It’s best to see tonight’s performance as the latest in a long line of high points from a songwriter-composer confirming his role as, amongst many other things, a standard-bearer for intelligent, uncompromising guitar music.”
