therefore present a night of extended music format, a evening that blurs the lines between live performance and in the studio experimentation. the AFA Gallery will be turned into a lab where the artists are seen in a production/assembly mode versus the more popular posturing/enterntainment approach. Complaints of "this doesn't sound anything like their record" will not apply this night. Rather, this is exactly what the record is going to sound like! Please attend and support and encourage therefore as they assemble the tracks for their upcoming release L.G.F.C.A.

therefore surfaces as various incarnations from a pool of approaches and near misaims. Calculated yet improvisational, meditative and simultaneously anxiety-infused, the path may be straight, but full of self-placed obstacles. It is that sound between a lost past and an uncertain future. Almost 6 years old, therefore continues to incorporate elements of punk, progressive economics, and sonic graffiti, to analyze the production and distribution of goods and services of art/music and its various guises.

The experimental duo originated in Lewisburg, PA, as Michael Kaufman and Wayne Feldman. therefore’s improvised punk aesthetic lends itself to a unique sound that could last for microseconds or months.

therefore's Wayne Feldman was most recently seen impersonating a performance artist in the Jan 11 HAPPY TIMES marathon. therefore have previously appeared on the Afa "stage" in the December, 2002 a2n cabaret (with Michael via MPEG-video); and in their solo 8-hour concert in 2001.
