[DID NOT ATTEND: March 16, 2024] Sleepytime Gorilla Museum / Stinking Lizaveta / Zoë Keating
Underground Arts had a special year-end sale. 12 future shows for $18 each. It’s a good deal if you plan to go to a lot of shows there. And I find myself wanting to go to more and more shows there.
Well, my cost per show went up a bit because I wound up not going to this show. My son was home from college, and that more important that checking out this strange band, although I would still like to see them sometime.
I actually only even paid any attention to this show because Stinking Lizaveta was opening for them. They are a local Philly band that I have yet to see, but who I have missed now about six times.
This lineup was pretty fascinating.
Zoë Keating opened the show. I have discovered that she recently played at ArtYard in Frenchtown and I’m going to want to check her out live. Here’s her bio
I am a cellist and composer, born in Canada and currently based in Vermont. I use live sampling and repetition to layer the sound of my cello and create rhythmically dense, immersive music. I’m known for both my use of technology – which I use to sample my cello onstage – and for my DIY approach, releasing my music without the help of a record label. In addition to performing, I also write music for TV, film and dance.
