Dave Nelson at The Goat Farm, Atlanta, December 18, 2013

"Last night’s show at The Goat Farm Arts Center was amazing. It is such a special place and we are glad to have had the opportunity to perform there. Atlanta is lucky to have a place so dedicated to new and experimental art of all kinds." - Dave Nelson 

I couldn't agree more.  Nelson's music is hard to categorize, but why bother?  Here's a sample video, composed of great tracking shots filmed from a moving car driving through south Georgia, for his moving song Southbound, which he performed last night.

As if further evidence of the diversity of Atlanta's music scene was necessary, loop-crazed Brooklyn-based trombonist Dave Nelson will be performing with Atlanta drummer Marlon Patton at The Goat Farm on December 18.  Video artist Lana Vogestad will be contributing to the performance.

We last saw Dave Nelson as part of the David Byrne-St. Vincent Love This Giant brass band.  But to help prepare us for what the evening may hold in store, here are some examples of Nelson's solo work.

Video artist Lana Vogestad has been an artist in residence in Greece and Iceland and has collaborated with musicians in the past, most recently at the Atlanta Film Festival's Sound + Vision event.
