In April, CuriousWorks welcomes four solo artists, each with their own unique sound. Michael Beach is a San Francisco-based musician. The formative years of his musical career were spent in Melbourne, Australia where he released several EPs with Electric Jellyfish (Ecstatic Yod, Twin Lakes) as well as his debut LP, Blood Courses (2008). He will be launching his 7" single "A Horse" on the night. Expect sparse electric guitar and compelling singing: .

"Somehow these songs seem to exist outside the framework of popular music, their structures both classic and completely individual." - messandnoise.com
