sunday zones at union pool in #brooklyn. heady, dense #improv by emergency group, like the moody & conversational parts of jambands minus the goofiness & face-scrunching peaks. debut gig by heat manager, choogle-adjacent alt-wryness, with only the barest hints that their members used to be in a primal dead cover band. rare side set by danny arakaki of #GarciaPeoples, feat. nice fat leads by mike bones of weak signal.

and, being a #GarciaPeoples show, i naturally scored this sweet #RobertHunter shirt from my friend matt, who only has a flipphone & hasn't been on the open internet since 2003ish (yes, even email), look for him on tour this summer.

back for night 2 at #UnionPool with #GarciaPeoples (big peak was the "short" version of "one step behind"; wish there was more jammin'), #ChrisForsyth (love hearing him with tom malach from the garcias as fingerpicking foil, most jams got to faraway places), & #PurlingHiss (sunday evening dino jr.-core).

guitar noises & big peaks at #UnionPool in #brooklyn by the tour-freshened #GarciaPeoples (including "tough freaks"/"stray cats") & #ChrisForsyth & co. (including through-the-roof joyous version of television's "friction"). got sucked into conversation & missed purling hiss. they're all back tomorrow.

psychedelic sangha is back! friday, june 16th at the former williamsburg savings bank in #brooklyn, with interlocking zones by #GarciaPeoples, #RyleyWalker & #JRBohannon duo, #lightshow by #macrodose, & more that we haven't figured out just yet. i'll be doing my usual chance operations & providing disorganization assistance. no early/late tickets this time, just one long evening. https://withfriends.co/event/16037848/bardo_bath_deep_dive

One of my photos from 4 years ago tonight at #Nublu when #GarciaPeoples & #ChrisForsyth played live together for the first time.

Attempting, perhaps in vain, to get my head and mood straight on a Friday morning. #GarciaPeoples #PsychedelicRock #Improvisation #Vinyl

#NowPlaying - planet earth rock & roll orchestra vibes in both spirit & sound on the solo debut of danny arakaki of #GarciaPeoples but, even better, feels like the big garciaverse songwriting breakthrough & hope some of these feels (& even the songs) carry back to the peeps. great sounding/looking pressing from husky pants, too. https://huskypantsrecords.bandcamp.com/album/tumble-in-shade-2

The state of the Garcia Peoples Union is strong
#GarciaPeoples OBriens N1

More #tourdates being released daily now. Here's the #GarciaPeoples & #ChrisForsyth dates & Chicago's own The FACS too.

not nearly enough musicians/bands on this site, gonna try to get in the habit of spreading tourdates over here. some of my fave #nyc area live acts will be on the road next month & beyond. mask up & go see #WeakSignal (with cass mccombs), #GarciaPeoples, and/or #YoLaTengo. no-fee tix info on YLT's site: http://yolatengo.com/schedule/

danny arakaki of #GarciaPeoples celebrates the release of his beautiful solo debut "tumble in shade," leading a division of the planet union pool rock & roll orchestra with guitarist mike bones from #WeakSignal, freelance drummer #RyanJewell, #pedalsteel player dan iead, & more. big band with lotsa space. dig danny's album: https://huskypantsrecords.bandcamp.com/album/tumble-in-shade-2
great sets, too, by out-of-towners kendraplex (hypnotic dream songs) & jake acosta (solo cartoon guitar symphonies).

Finally got to drop a needle on the new album, “Tumble In Shade” from Danny Arakaki (#GarciaPeoples ). It features a killer cast of players and, midway through side A I’m pretty well invested.
Shout out to #HuskyPantsRecords for delivering the goods as usual.

#NowPlaying the new Tumble In Shade album by #GarciaPeoples guitarist/singer Danny Arakaki, out Friday on Husky Pants Records. First listen and I am fully smitten.

This confirms my belief that any album featuring Ryan Jewell on #drums with #art by D Norsen is worth buying on the spot. #IndieRock #vinyl #NewMusic @vinylrecords
