Did you see the Gavin Bryant's performance of the Sinking of the Titanic/Jesus Blood Never Failed Me Yet?

"Bryars"
Just two of a whole slew of concerts and talks we went to - absolutely exhausting number of things to do and see. "Jesus' Blood..." was Sunday afternoon and "...Titanic" was later that night (right after Henry Threadgill's Zooid). Also, at the launch party on Thursday, Bryars said that his ensemble has never played in North America (!) I was shocked by this (even tho, I think he has some kind of professorship in Canada these days). |

It's pretty incredible each year.
Here's a PBS Newshour segment about the 2015 one (Kronos, Terry Riley, et al.) - and you can see highlights and street scenes of others on YT too. Still a bit early for more '17 highlights, I think. Spoiler for PBS Newshour 2015:
Spoiler for Xiu Xiu Twin Peaks:
Spoiler for Beiser Zepp Black Dog:
the guy on the left is Terry Riley's son Gyan and the drummer is Glenn Kotche from Wilco. ...and a short vid of Henry Grimes who had Nicole Mitchell (!), Tomeka Reid (!!), and Warren Smith (!!!) with him. Spoiler for Henry Grimes:
I'm sure there'll be more as the days pass... Last edited by rostasi; 03-30-2017 at 11:54 AM. |

Most of what I experience is usually out of the country (Denmark this summer/fall). I'm tempted to go see The Damned 40th Anniversary tour coming up in mid-May at House of Blues, but other than that I can't really say. Also, I used to be a regular member of the two local Indian music organizations that have their occasional great concerts here, but I just haven't had the time lately. |
