Ashes in Order

Ashes in Order was formed in the Spring of 2007 out of a mutual interest in pulse minimalism, genre hopping, and anything-goes-improvisation.
"Asheville guitarist Shane Perlowin makes more musics — plural — after 9 p.m. than most people do all day. When he’s not riffin’ it with the likes of Ahleuchatistas, Doom Robbins or Mind vs. Target!, he’s doing the duo thing with musicians such as Trevor Stoia, Joe Burkett and, for Friday night’s gig at the ever-hip Hunter Gatherer, accordionist August Hoerr. And Hoerr’s just as busy as Perlowin — the painter-by-day also plays spike fiddle in Asheville’s most ethnic of trios, Soora Gameela. Put together though, Perlowin and Hoerr manage to shed their respective “other responsibilities” and create something rather unique in the process. That’s all well and good, you say, but what does it sound like? Think Guy Klucevsek meets Pat Metheny playing Nino Rota."
