Maggie Cox, bass
Jennifer Gersten, violin
"“Keep Telling Yourself That” is the debut album of the New York City-based experimental bass-violin duo of Jennifer Gersten and Maggie Cox. It is a collection of improvised songs testifying to a frisky, impish, no-holds-barred imagination for acoustic string playing. Bassist Maggie Cox exploits her titanic expressive and dynamic range on an instrument outfitted with gut strings, and violinist Jennifer Gersten transforms a beater violin through object preparations into an engine of ghastly twangs. Jabbing and indistinct, abrasive and sweet, their magnetic language originates in a shared body of musical references that span the centuries, as well as an indomitable sense of humor about the indignities of downtown girlhood in our unprecedented times."
