NEXT GATHERING
Looking forward to showcasing the Polyrhythmics this Sunday, October 23rd in Albany, CA at the awesome sauce Ivy Room.
Now on their sixth full-length album and twelfth year performing, Seattle's Polyrhythmics take the sonic exploration of past albums, combined with mad scientist experiments testing the tunes on the road, and rolled them into 2020 releases Man from the Future and the companion EP Fondue Party.
Rich with bold brass and hypnotic percussion, Polyrhythmics' latest studio work continues to showcase the instrumental eight-piece's impossibly tight grooves and virtuosic musicianship as they tear through a singular blend of funk, soul, psychedelic rock, R&B, progressive jazz, and Afrobeat.
Now, the band emerges from the pandemic to return to the road with a new arsenal of original songs in their diverse catalog to conjure up the next chapter of fiery and infectious live performances as they embark on a 2nd decade as a touring collective.
Polyrhythmics are:
Ben Bloom: Guitars, Grant Schroff: Drums, Nathan Spicer: Keyboards, Jason Gray: Bass, Scott Morning: Trumpet, Elijah Clark: Trombone, Art Brown: Sax and Flute, Karl Olson: Percussion.
OTHER UPCOMING GATHERINGS
Achilles Wheel Trio (one of our beloved house concert alumni bands who last performed in 2017) will be returning for an indoor house concert performance in Oakland, CA on Sunday, November 13th at 4:30pm.
Paul Kamm, Jonny Mojo and Shelby Snow are singer/ songwriters and front men of the Northern California Roots and World music/Rock and Roll jam band, Achilles Wheel. As an acoustic trio they bring the same high energy and engaging stage presence to a quieter place, combining a bit of Country and Bluegrass to the band’s famously hard driving sound.
This will be a private party with limited capacity so please email Winter directly if you would like to attend.
The 2022 Montclair Village Holiday Stroll will be held in Oakland, CA on Thursday, December 8, 2022 from 5:30 to 8:30pm.
