Thursday Morning Music: Chris Knox Tribute
I got a sad yesterday when I found out the New Zealand’s do-it-yourself musical mastermind Chris Knox had a stroke this summer (via Pitchfork). I’ve really got to get my priorities straight when I know useless things like who Bart Septak’s fucking barber is but I find out several months late that one of my favorite musicians of all-time was taken down by a terrible malady. Gack.
Here are a few videos featuring Knox and his epic two-man band the Tall Dwarfs to honor a great man. Here’s to a very speedy recovery.
Chris Knox—“Not Given Lightly”
An amazing live performance by the Tall Dwarfs doing “All My Hollowness To You.”
Chris Knox—“Half Man, Half Mole”
Tall Dwarfs—“Nothing’s Gonna Happen”
