Fun!

Jeff and pianist David Witham will also be playing MONA in an evening of electronic and acoustic soundscapes inspired by neon art. On Friday, June 6th at 8PM, these two wacky fellows will take inspiration from MONA's extensive collection of rare and unusual neon art, and use it as a launching pad for electronic and acoustic duo-improvisations. The concert will take place at the Museum of Neon Art (136 W. 4th St., in Downtown LA's burgeoning arts district). Parking is available on the street, and in adjacent parking lots. Tickets are $10 at the door.
