75 Dollar Bill Che Chen - guitar Rick Brown - percussion
75 Dollar Bill, the duo of Che Chen and Rick Brown, have been playing together for about four years releasing a string of cassettes and LPs. With glowing reviews from around the world and at home in NYC, 75 Dollar Bill has shown itself to be adaptable, between playing house shows, concert halls and festivals, returning to Europe at the invitation of Wilco for Le Guess Who.

“75 Dollar Bill performances are rich in the ways a moiré pattern is rich. Pit small differences in phrasing and meter against each other, wait, and waves of detail follow. You are not likely to hear a traditional solo in a 75 Dollar Bill song. It is a sound that conjures the old in the specific sense of music that is suitable for various kinds of social activity: dancing, mourning, commemorating, or simply beginning again.”
– Sasha Frere-Jones in The Village Voice
