    Thinguma*jigSaw

    Thinguma*jigSaw is a duo from Norway. He, The Severed Headmaster, plays banjo and sings in falsetto. She, Little Myth Epiphanymph, plays musical saw, flute, and melodica. Together they make what they call "splatter-folk"--songs (in English) inspired by old murder ballads, horror movies, musical minimalism, beautiful acoustic sounds, and Norwegian fjords and Irish landscapes. Joining host David Garland in the WNYC Studio, Thinguma*jigSaw performs and talks about their music.

    I thought this group was so creative and unusual. I was moved by some of their songs and drawn into the mood they create with their original simple and beautiful woeful sounds. I plan to purchase their CD
