Their work spans genres, from jazz to noise to avant-rock to delicate songs; their performances span venues, from international festivals to intimate basements. Though often working solo as both a songwriter and improviser, they also perform in the rock band \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003eEditrix\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e, and in endless other combinations of their heroes and peers including \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003eBill Orcutt\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003eCaroline Davis\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003eRyan Sawyer\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e, and \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003eJohn Zorn\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e.
