ISSUE 14 / “Magic Passage”
This issue explores magic, mystery, music, and death through three American artists. First we meet forgotten 20th century musical magician Evans Brown, whose occult magic would inspire the corniest and “most nonsensical” band in American history, The Korn Kobblers. On the heels of their latest album, Bearings: Soundtracks to the Bardo, I spoke with sonic mage Ka Baird in April of 2024. They share their early childhood influences and perspectives on their performance practice. Ka also offers insightful reflections on caring for their mother through the dying process. While we unpack how this powerful experience and the Tibetan Book of the Dead informed their creative process when making Bearings. Finally, the AMP shares a rare biographic pamphlet by Waldemar Tonner, which celebrates his lifelong partner, psychic pianist Francis Grierson. Following the final chord of his last concert, Grierson passed away on May 29th, 1927.
