CatchLight Recordings Artist: Thralls

Thralls, past the age of 50, no longer painted specific objects. They drifted around things like the air, like twilight, catching unawares in the shimmering shadows the nuances of color that they transformed into the invisible core of their silent symphony. Henceforth they captured only those mysterious interpenetrations that united shape and tone by means of a secret but unceasing progression that no convulsion or cataclysm could interrupt or impede. Space reigns supreme.
It's as if some ethereal wave skimming over surfaces soaked up their visible emanations to shape them and give them form and then spread them like a perfume, like an echo of themselves, like some imperceptible dust, over every surrounding surface.
Thralls, comprising Laura Nichols, Will Pritikin, Ryan Olson, and Pete Railsback, played every dive bar in San Francisco from 2009-2014.
