Fred Frith Residency

British art-rock guitarist, New York improviser and now California composer, Fred Frith is a man of many hats. The eminent avant-gardist turns up here for a week of gigs heavy on collaboration and, we're guessing, spontaneity. We're particularly fired up for the Dec 11 offerings, duos with saxist John Zorn and trombonist George Lewis at 8 and 10pm, respectively. See thestonenyc.com for the complete schedule.
