About ¡FIASCO!
FIASCO group biography
Washington DC-based FIASCO began as a collaboration between saxophonist Andrew Frankhouse and guitarist Nelson Dougherty in 2016. The group was first assembled in quintet format with a two-tenor front line, to perform a pair of concerts honoring Paul Motian at the historic Twins Jazz Club in Washington. After an enthusiastically received initial run, the group expanded its repertoire inspired by a variety of sounds and colors, ranging from droning folk songs, to jittery hip-hop grooves, bluesy explorations, and all-out teenage garage rock. Drawing upon many sources and traditions, FIASCO looks to explore the widest possible spectrum of sound – soft, borderline fragile at one moment, screaming with distortions and multiphonics the next. Their musicianship and range creates a sound experience unlike any other – keeping audiences’ ears open, and taking them in all sorts of unexpected directions.
