The Fiery Furnaces is the long-running collaboration between siblings Eleanor and Matthew Friedberger. Renowned for their dense, allusive lyrics, formally inventive compositions, and unpredictable live shows, the band occupies a singular space in the landscape of experimental pop.
The rich text element allows you to create and format headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, images, and video all in one place instead of having to add and format them individually. Just double-click and easily create content.
A rich text element can be used with static or dynamic content. For static content, just drop it into any page and begin editing. For dynamic content, add a rich text field to any collection and then connect a rich text element to that field in the settings panel. Voila!
Headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, figures, images, and figure captions can all be styled after a class is added to the rich text element using the "When inside of" nested selector system.
This fall they reconvene for a limited series of duo performances to revisit their 2004 album, Blueberry Boat–a cult touchstone of adventurous songwriting and raw, idiosyncratic energy. This reunion is less a nostalgic reprise than a continuation of the band’s interrogation of song form, memory, and narrative—rendered now with renewed clarity and conceptual precision.
This is a standing room-only performance. If you require accessibility accommodations, please email boxoffice@nationalsawdust.org.
ABOUT JONATHAN SCHENKE
Leftfield musician and producer Jonathan Schenke invites you into the surreal and immersive world of sound on ‘Passages’, his debut solo album out now on No Gold. ‘Passages’ draws deeply from Schenke’s previous musical endeavors, as well as his background in classical & jazz recording and sound design. Synthesizers share space with piano, strings, voice, and wind instruments - some performed live, others resampled. The resulting album is its own sonic realm, blurring the lines between electronic and acoustic, composition and collage, and definition and abstraction.As a producer and mix engineer, Jonathan Schenke has worked on hundreds of records (for the likes of Parquet Courts, Liars, Dougie Poole, and many more). As a musician, he has released dozens of records with his various groups (including P.E., Eaters, and Gift Horse). ‘Passages’, however, is the first solo outing from this prolific collaborator.
