Jandek

Born: October 26, 1945. Strange, reclusive, yet prolific artist operating from Houston, Texas since 1978. Little is known about him. Music ranges from blues and electric boogie music to spoken word and avant-garde chamber music. Runs the [l=Corwood Industries] label for his own releases, the first of which was credited to [a3021165] and appeared in 1978. All subsequent recordings have been credited to Jandek (including all reissues of the Units album). Jandek performed his first concert unannounced in 2004, 26 years after he released his debut. He has gone on to perform a handful of concerts every year since, slowly releasing them in their entirety on Corwood.
