The triumphant return of GONGZILLA -
“Plugged in, powered up and brimming with health. Gongzilla proffers a hirsute, heterodox take on electric jazz spiced with hashish ambiance and eastern percolation. Anchored by Hansford Rowe‘s undulating basstasstics, Gongzilla marries Gary Husband‘s muscular drumming with the lighter touch of percussionist Phil Kester, the tintinabulous marimba and vibes of Benoit Moerlen and the guitar and loops of Bon Lozaga””
Saturday September 22-
Greensky Bluegrass “Winners of the 2006 Telluride Bluegrass Festival Band Competition, Michigan’s own Greensky Bluegrass is earning recognition nationwide as a growing force in acoustic roots music…
Performing at festivals, theaters, clubs and listening rooms all over the US, their rare traditional sound is piquing the interests of not only bluegrass enthusiasts, but lovers of music of all genres. It is their unique “fusion of tradition and enthusiasm for improvisation” that has come to define the band’s creative and tangible compositional style.”
