As part of March’s ICA Live!, the downtown modern art gallery hosts a performance by Lux Interna—a group that goes beyond the concept of alternative country by gathering the most vibrant parts of traditional folk music and distilling them into a truly haunting, American Gothic experience. With their dark guitar riffs and galloping banjo melodies, this San Francisco quintet channels a mystical, almost occult, Americana through ominous lyrics told in the voice of droning cowboy. Billed as a “multimedia narrative in film and music,” the work will be presented as an audiovisual exhibition. (SP)
