"I kept playing it over and over," said Boo
about La Cerca's last release, and he wasn't alone. Andy Gardner's
ongoing, mutating band has its own aesthetic, evident even in a
town full of good players. Often called eclectic, the trio (and
guests) deliver solid songwriting in a mix with texture. I asked
songwriter Andy Gardner if I could photograph him recently at Club
la Nuit, where he stages shows. "I'd rather you photographed
me with my band," he replied. The low light at Plush
made that a tough order, but we'll be back for more. The band was
having fun and so were we.
