Official Debut of Cy Twombly at M Room July 16

Tonight at the M Room will be the official debut of the band Cy Twombly, a new lo-fi, bedroom project from The Homophones’ Jason Ferraro. Originally named NOWHERE until he discovered that there was already a cheesy Swiss alt rock band with the same name, Cy Twombly is heavily influenced by his “reaction to this 90’s fetish that is going on in indie rock right now,” as well as copious amounts of weed. “It’s songs about a boy I love who doesn’t love me. And he only listens to the Pixies.” Ferraro recruited his buddies Jeff Schech (bass), Kate Fabrizio (guitar/vocals), and Ron Crawford (drums), who deejays at Mad Decent Mondays and has never drummed before. And they just go for it wailing on their instruments like they are kids again! “So it is a total break from overthinking. It’s fun. And since Cy Twombly just died and I love him so much and his work seems really sloppy but is actually very meaningful, I named this project after him.” They’ll be sharing the bill this evening with local pals Gang, Sgt. Sass, and Robai. BTW: Farraro also wants everyone to get realllll high!!!!! (I don’t think that I’ll have a problem doing that.) M Room, 15 W. Girard Ave., 9pm, $8, 21+ Q.D. Tran
