I am a relative newcomer to Emma Ruth Rundle’s music but I have been playing her songs almost non-stop since 2022 when I became hooked on Electric Guitar: One which is her first solo album. That led me down the Rundle rabbit hole and I quickly purchased all her oeuvre as well as the albums she made with Thou, Nocturnes, Red Sparowes and Marriages. I was tempted to go see her play live in Toronto and Boston earlier this month, but those shows just didn’t jive with my teaching schedule at Rutgers University. So, it was with great anticipation that I headed to Rundle’s Easter gig at Le Poisson Rouge in Greenwich Village. This show was originally planned to be the Tour’s finale, but she added another Boston show due to great demand.

"Correct! I actually performed on The Totally Tubular Festival two years ago. I was playing solo that night and they asked me to come back, so I thought I'd do something a bit different and so I decided to reform my backing band from 1988, The Lost Toy People. The last show we played together was with Depeche Mode and OMD at the Rose Bowl for the legendary 101 Concert and the other night in Phoenix was our first show in 38 years; how about that?"
Even those who don't know very much about visual art are familiar with the Cubist approach to the human body. Pablo Picasso liked to present a person from many angles at once, and compress three-dimensional form into a two-dimensional frame. No matter what step she's on, that nude descending a staircase comes at us all at once. We know we're looking at an individual person, even if it's never clear which of those fields of color represent the present moment and which are afterimages, projections, and vapor trails. Representing human beings like this guarantees that there’ll be distortions: facial features in strange places, unexpected angles, duplicates and odd subtractions, clashes between heads, necks, and torsos, the shuffling of expressions, and the surprise and disquiet that comes when an obviously human figure doesn't look much like a human at all.
Here is a look at shows taking place this week along with our featured listings and a look at some upcoming shows. New Jersey Stage offers previews of concerts throughout the Garden State as well as select shows in New York City and Philadelphia areas
