David Moore of Bing & Ruth’s New Single “Pointe Nimbus”
Today, we welcome David Moore back to the RVNG family with “Pointe Nimbus,” his first widely shared piece of solo piano music in a score.
Known and revered for his atmospheric works with Bing & Ruth, and his collaborations with Steve Gunn and Cowboy Sadness, Moore’s live ensemble compositions helped reshape America’s musical landscape from the early aughts with their sublime spaciousness. Now, his new solo piano offering marks a full circle moment, a coming home to the radiant core of his artistry.
Moore describes “Pointe Nimbus” as a “simple song that gets stretched and pulled apart and put back together a few times – like a plastic Satie someone left melting and spinning in the microwave.” Its mythic title, alluding to both the graceful tip-toe practices of classical ballet and the divine halos of light seen in religious icons, captures the work’s serenely buoyant atmosphere, a space in which one can always take refuge.
Keep your head in the clouds of “Pointe Nimbus” now, and keep an eye out for more from Moore on the horizon. We’re so happy to have you home, David.
