Squanderers are the glowingly new-2024 vintage-trio of guitarists Wendy Eisenberg and David Grubbs alongside multi-instrumentalist and legendary producer Kramer. The group sprung into action as the duo of Kramer and Grubbs with the single ""Congress of Poodles"" b/w ""Lendrick Muir Bible Study Weekend,"" part of Kramer's 2023 Shimmy-Disc box set Rings of Saturn. Squanderers now enter the arena of live performance with the addition of bona-fide guitar slayer Eisenberg, a dream of a foil to Grubbs's grubbslike guitarisms, setting the scene for Kramer to follow his musical divining rod. Divining urges not dirges. In Grubbs's book-length poem, The Voice in the Headphones, ""Squanderer"" is the nickname that most deeply troubles of the book's unnamed protagonist: ""Hang your head, Squanderer. You'll never darken the doorway of Studio A."" Will this trio of inveterate Squanderers redeem themselves?
