Califone's music is full of layers and textures, offering endless depth, entire universes to lose yourself in—and beyond the thick spectrum of sound, they do something even more important: They write great songs. Primary songwriter and vocalist Tim Rutili's artistic endeavors stretch beyond music and include the creation of surreal short documentaries, music videos and experimental films.
At 92YTribeca, Califone will perform a live, interactive soundtrack to the NYC premiere screening of Rutili's first feature-length film, All My Friends Are Funeral Singers. It will be a truly special event, unlike anything Califone has done to date and will celebrate the release of their newest CD of the same name. The screenplay for the film and the songs on the new album were written at the same time and incorporate many of the same images and characters. The movie was shot in an old, rickety house in Indiana in the spring of 2009 and stars the respected cult actress Angela Bettis (Girl, Interrupted , May, Carrie).
