Episode 1 (Pt. 1) Jesse Srogoncik :: Paris 1942 / Destruction / The Alien Free Quintet
The short-lived, Phoenix, Arizona-based outfit, Paris 1942, consisted of the Bishop brothers, Alan and Rick, who had recently established the famed Sun City Girls, former drummer of the Velvet Underground, Moe Tucker, and Jesse Srogoncik. Together for a short four months in the early 1980s, the band took atmospheric advantage of the time given together by relentlessly recording their feverish findings until the desert moon faded, the spell lifted, and each member moved on to other respective avenues in their creative constellations. Srogoncik, a legend and sonic staple among Arizona's alchemical scene of poetic pranksters and music maniacs, tells his captivating story of the band's humble, yet biblical beginnings, befriending Tucker, several collaborations with the Sun City Girls, the essence of expression, and much more.
About The Burning Nerve Ending Magic Podcast :: A Sun City Girls Story
The world doesn’t necessarily need another podcast, or maybe it does, who’s to say? It’s hard to tell these days, but one thing is for certain: if something is worth doing, it’s worth going all the way. An indescribably specific band and spiritual institution of sound comes to mind that not only deserves a poetic platform to be consistently celebrated but also acknowledged for its atmospheric alchemy, which continues to push the boundaries of music, art, and the cosmic nature of the world. Of course, I’m talking about the Phoenix/Seattle-based outfit Sun City Girls.
As an obsessed fanatic, it is my honour and deep privilege to announce that The Self Portrait Gospel will be launching a brand new podcast, “The Burning Nerve Ending Magic Podcast - A Sun City Girls Story,” completely separate from our weekly show, that will be entirely dedicated to the harmonious history and liberating legacy of the band’s multi-decade run. Join us as we take a deep, dark, and dystopian dive into the esoteric environment and liberating landscape of perhaps one of the most frighteningly original groups to have shattered the subconscious since Sun Ra and John Coltrane walked the earth. From Tempe to Thailand, Seattle to Singapore, let’s take a trip around the world as we connect with the band’s critical community of cosmic collaborators, friends, engineers, and much more.
