Thrill to the electrifying guitar wizardry of Jimmy Jumpjump! Gasp at the audacity of the legendary Ariella Stok aka Starmaiden to whom shame is but a word in the dictionary! Grope to the exotic jungle rhythms of Bill the Drummer! In one of their sought after East Coast appearances since the release of their second album, Sometimes Just One Second on Shrimper Records. Bop on down to see them perform live in concert, where anything can happen and usually does. Fun for kids from 2 to 82. Chris Forsyth’s WHAT IS NOW is a new collaborative project from Philadelphia guitarist Chris Forsyth (BASIC, Solar Motel Band) featuring double bassist John Moran (Bark Culture, Daniel Villareal Trio) and drummer Joey Sullivan (Florry, Bark Culture). Together they create spontaneous song forms exploring lyrically ambient moods, repetition, rhythmic interplay, and a mindful leaderless-ness. As suggested by the players’ pedigrees, elements or motorik propulsion, trance jazz, and deconstructed rock moves abound. The Bandcamp- and merch table-only CD “Both / And” is the debut release, about which Laura Snapes wrote this in the Guardian: “The Philadelphia guitarist swaps his usual Television-indebted questing riffage for 25 minutes of tingly, exploratory improv alongside double bassist John Moran and drummer Joey Sullivan: imagine a scruffier Necks.” WET TUNA was formed for all beings. Legendary DJ/HEAD Jeff Conklin says “revel in the earth/space magic!” Their new record is called “VAST”. Matt “MV” Valentine with Jim Bliss & Erika Elder are the triad. They specialize in homegrown dubwise song exploration. The kaleidoscopic sonic agriculture of Wet Tuna has long inhabited its own universe. Over the past five years, they have established themselves as one of the most forward thinking and anarchic of the many groups rethinking and reconceptualizing the notion of the “jam band,” all the while frustrating critical attempts to slot the group’s music into any scene, sound, or easily classifiable genre fad. There remains a beautiful simplicity at the core of MV’s workbench alchemy; as with the music of Can, there is in his productions almost always a lodestar fixed within the eye of whatever maelstrom or fragmented primal abstractions surround it. On Warping All By Yourself, funk and soul are both the unifying principles and the unlikely bedrocks upon which everything else orbits and rests, resulting in a concoction of iconoclastic, free-dancing music that has as much in common with Funkadelic as it does Crazy Horse.
