TRICKY DILEMMA,
led by multi-instrumentalist Bruce Mack (of Burnt Sugar) is a trio of abstract-expressionists
that also features guitarists Muata25/Thomas Blast Murray (Eurhythmics, Terrence
Trent D'Arby) and Marvin Sewell (formerly of Cassandra Wilson).
The Howling Necessity, conceptualized by Bruce Mack, is an exploration in
addressing human desire and 'calling out' when in need, using aural landscapes
to describe the human condition as the 13th century Persian poet/philosopher
Rumi did with words. Mack, is expressing experience without words or melodies,
by playing freely, responding to his mood changes and the effects of those
changes
on his and the playing of fellows Thomas Murray and Marvin Sewell
(who obviously have their own demons to expel). With instruments being used
like neurological telegraph writers, The Howling Necessity is an emotionally
honest body of work featuring 9 tracks that were improvised and recorded
live using a combination of acoustic, electric and exotic instruments such
as Udo drum and Greek Bouzouki. The Howling Necessity is the metamorphosis
of Mack from the days of his punk-funk-r&b-rock bands PBR StreetGang
and Rebels Be Phuncky.
The Howling Necessity can be purchased at Downtown
Music Gallery, Kim's Mediapolis &
Other Music in NYC.
