 n Gano was the voice and pen at the center of the Violent Femmes' stark an
 d seething musical storm. Fast-forward a couple of decades\, when Gano and
  the Ryan brothers found themselves living in the same New York City neigh
 borhood and hanging out in some of the same places. When the three would g
 et together\, there was much talk of music and musicians\, with discussion
  topics ranging from Leonard Cohen\, Television\, and Frank Black to Jacki
 e Mittoo\, Jimmy McGriff\, and Mose Allison. After Brendan ended up playin
 g keys on Gano's 2002 solo release Hitting the Ground and between major st
 udio film score projects (Fever Pitch\, The Heartbreak Kid)\, the Ryans st
 arted handing off instrumentals to Gordon\, who'd come up with lyrics and 
 ideas for the music. Thus began a mailbox-centered collaboration that woul
 d last\, literally\, for years.\nGano is thrilled with the results and the
  collaboration. 'The different strengths that we have really come together
  in a very good way with this record and these songs\,' he says. 'This is 
 not a side project\, because Violent Femmes are over\, so it's not like th
 is is the other thing for connoisseurs or somebody who really wants to dig
  into it. This is what I'm doing\, as far as singing and writing and playi
 ng music. This is what I'm doing.'\n\nStart time: 7:30 pm
