My friend, the inexplicable Thomas Truax will be performing this Monday night at CB's Gallery in NYC with Revue Noir. Expect to be enchanted, delighted and slightly disturbed by his array of mechanical sound sculptures and dark, romantic lullabies and lively rock melodramas.

Thomas recently performed a sold out show in Boston with one of my current infatuations, punk cabaret duo The Dresden Dolls - who happen to be on tour with Nine Inch Nails as we speak.
