Music's Future? It's In the Stars

CosmologicIT'S FITTING THAT the Silver Spring label Cuneiform Records derived its name from cryptic ancient script. Appearing out of nowhere in 1984 to release home recording artist R. Stevie Moore's "What's the Point?!!,"Cuneiform has since become renown for releasing new music by unusual artists in any style and for unearthing lost treasures by progressive-rock and jazz-fusion fossils. To celebrate 25 years in the music business, Cuneiform is bringing San Diego-based improvisational four-piece band Cosmologic — the label's latest signing — to Silver Spring art space Pyramid Atlantic this weekend. Cosmologic is perhaps the quintessential Cuneiform group: virtually unknown but gifted with limitless musical potential (and improvisational expertise).

» Pyramid Atlantic Art Center, 8230 Georgia Ave., Silver Spring; Fri. Feb. 20, 7:30 p.m., $15, $10 students; 301-608-9101. (Silver Spring)
