Erik Fratzke residency: Fake Accent "Four Serious Allegations" album release"
Twin Cities based multi-instrumentalist and composer Erik Fratzke is best known as the bassist of the lauded group Happy Apple, alongside drummer Dave King and saxophonist Mike Lewis. But for his debut as a leader, Four Serious Allegations, Fratzke's band Fake Accent charts novel terrain with a focus on small group improvisational dynamics and obsolete consumer electronics, which is influenced by a large swath of disparate 20th century work – composer lannis Xenakis, musique concrete, early hip-hop, doom metal, Conlon Nancarrow, harmolodic funk, “slow cinema," and "therapeutic architecture." Fake Accent astounds in their ability to harness these myriad streams and direct them in a deeply compelling and seamless way.
