Description
In The Williamsburg Avant-Garde Cisco Bradley chronicles the rise and fall of the underground
music and art scene in the Williamsburg neighborhood of Brooklyn between the late 1980s and the
early 2010s. Drawing on interviews, archival collections, musical recordings, videos, photos, and
other ephemera, Bradley explores the scene’s social, cultural, and economic dynamics. Building
on the neighborhood’s punk DIY approach and aesthetic, Williamsburg's free jazz, postpunk, and
noise musicians and groups---from Mary Halvorson, Zs, and Nate Wooley to Matana Roberts,
Peter Evans, and Darius Jones---produced shows in a variety of unlicensed venues as well as in
clubs and cafes. At the same time, pirate radio station free103point9 and music festivals made
Williamsburg an epicenter of New York’s experimental culture. In 2005, New York’s rezoning act
devastated the community as gentrification displaced its participants farther afield in Brooklyn and
in Queens. With this portrait of Williamsburg, Bradley not only documents some of the most vital
music of the late twentieth and early twenty-first centuries; he helps readers better understand the
formation, vibrancy, and life span of experimental music and art scenes everywhere.
