Burning Star Core
Cincinnati native C. Spencer Yeh has been performing under the Burning Star Core moniker since 1993. A classically trained violinist, Yeh is the center of the amorphous free noise group whose past collaborators have included: Comets on Fire, Hotogisu, Chris Corsano and Thurston Moore.

Spencer Yeh has unleashed a mighty torrent of today's most curious, beautiful, humane, expansive, generous and spacious (in so many ways) electroacoustic psychedelia.
