Thurston Moore in Conversation with Anthony DeCurtis: Sonic Life

Thurston Moore and Anthony DeCurtis
Sonic Life

Join Thurston Moore, founding member of Sonic Youth, for a conversation with Rolling Stone’s Anthony DeCurtis on his new memoir, Sonic Life, followed by a special performance.

Defining the relentless innovation and raw power of post-punk rock and roll for three decades, Sonic Youth remains a profoundly influential force. Since its inception and after its breakup, Moore has been an inveterate experimentalist, ranked by Rolling Stone as among the greatest guitarists of all time. In his characteristically candid and intellectually heterodox memoir, he guides readers through his long, distinguished, boundary-breaking career. Hear him and DeCurtis discuss his life in music, his early years on the downtown New York scene, and Sonic Youth’s consistently unpredictable creative twists and turns — followed by an intimate performance.
