GREAT CIRCLES PRESENTS: ERASERHEAD REMIXED
LIVE MUSIC BY APOLOGIST & PHILTH SPECTOR / VISUALS BY LUMINOUS ABSTRACT
Eraserhead Remixed" is a Great Circles tribute to the late David Lynch and his early film "Eraserhead." Lynch lived in Philly between 1965 and 1970, while attending the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts. He lived in the Callowhill neighborhood, which was later dubbed The Eraserhood by local Lynch fans. In interviews, Lynch cited Philadelphia as a major inspiration for "Eraserhead."
