"Marc Ribot's rawest band in ages."--Time Out New York
Ceramic Dog
1. chien du faience: expression: frozen with emotion, as in the perfectly still moment before a fight breaks out.
2. Ultimate kitsch object.
3. A free/punk/funk/experimental/psychedelic/post electronica collective, featuring Marc (Cubanos Postizos, John Zorn, Tom Waits, etc etc), plus two young players on the New York/California underground improv/experimental rock scene, Shahzad Ismaily (Two Foot Yard, Secret Chiefs 3) on bass/electronics and Ches Smith (Good for Cows, Trevor Dunn's Trio-Convulsant, Ben Goldberg) on drums/electronics.
4. Not a 'project': a real band.

It's now available as a free download or can be streamed in real time:
