Dear Listeners,Â
Happy 2024 to you, in all its weirdness.Â
I’m working on NEW MUSIC and will be sharing little bits of it and my process with you as I go along. For now, I’m putting the videos on Instagram and my Facebook Page and will link to them on my blog (sorry I let that lapse, somehow I managed to forget blogging existed). Here’s the first, a snippet of a song with the working title “Supernumerary”
What else? There are a few concerts in the immediate future:
March 15 - ArtYard - Frenchtown, NJ
March 16 - Underground Arts - Philadelphia, PA
March 17 - Le Poisson Rouge - NYC, NY
March 21 - Big Ears Festival - Knoxville, TN
The show in Philadelphia is opening up for my old friends, the Sleepytime Gorilla Museum. My connections to members of that band go back 20+ years to my 964 Natoma days. I first encountered Nils Frykdahl in the previous millennium while he was playing amplified flute in the rafters of the warehouse along with Dan Rathburn making noise and sparks with an arc welder that illuminated butoh performer Shinichi Moma Koga contorting himself on a metal grate. Anyway, Sleepytime is a delightful group of very talented avant garde art rockers and this year needs more of their unfiltered catharsis. I immediately said yes when they asked if I would play for one of their East Coast dates to support their new album.
The Big Ears festival is something I’ve wanted to play at for almost a decade, so I am beyond thrilled to be added this year. I’ll be sticking around for the festival to hear as many of the other artists as possible, it’s off the hook, check it out https://bigearsfestival.org/
Pass Alert Passes of all kinds were selling briskly during the holidays, with the Premier single-day and Tier 1 price allotments for Saturda
More concerts dates are coming in the autumn. East, west, middle, as many as I can fit in ;-)
Thank you for listening!
celloly yours, Z
