The Ghost was formed by saxophonist Michael Foster as both a tribute to his disparate influences in free jazz, harsh noise, and the gay underground community, and as a middle finger to the suffocating heteronormative establishment of improvised music. Their new CD "Vanished Pleasures" stands as a new direction for this project, utilizing overt compositional frameworks to convey the anxieties of aging, sexual freedom, and the power relations inherent in the sax-bass-drums format. The band features John Moran on bass and Joey Sullivan on drums, both of whom are also in Philadelphia trio Bark Culture. For this special concert, The Ghost are joined by Poughkeepsie legend Joe McPhee, a multi-instrumentalist whose first appearance on record was cut the day after John Coltrane's funeral and whose work and sound are still evolving 57 years later.

Damon Krukowski and Naomi Yang began playing music together as the rhythm section, co-songwriters, and sometime singers in Galaxie 500. The band’s influential albums (Today, On fire, and This Is Our Music) were genre-defying landmarks of atmospheric post-punk, inspiring countless other artists who followed in their wake. Since the demise of Galaxie 500, Damon and Naomi have worked as a duo, exploring folk music, psychedelia, and collaborations with other like-minded musicians.

One of my favorite acts to ever bless the Tubby's stage returns! DO NOT MISS THIS! For Patrick Flegel, Cindy Lee is more than just a recording music project. "Singers like Patsy Cline and The Supremes carried me through the hardest times of my life," explains Flegel, "and also provided the soundtrack to the best times."
Following the dissolution of Canadian experimental indie band Women, Flegel would delve deeper into songwriting that bends further toward high atmospherics and bracing melodies – a unique space where splendor naturally collides with experimentation. Delivering moments of sheer beauty through somber reflections on longing and loneliness, Cindy Lee is something to hold onto in a world of disorder.

Part Chimp, a noise rock band from the UK https://partchimp.bandcamp.com/
Terry Gross is an engrossing trio composed of guitarist Phil Manley (Trans Am/Fucking Champs), bassist Donny Newenhouse, and drummer Phil Becker. The trio are also connected as owners and engineers at Bay Area recording spot El Studio, where they began improvising together as a way to test the boundaries and gear of the studio. Their loose, organic chemistry burgeoned into a deep camaraderie and a sound both expansive and exacting. The three experienced musicians crafted their first full-length album through the pure joy of playing together with no expectations. With the tapes rolling on their rehearsals, the band captures the exuberance of live performance and elevates those recordings through a deft use of the studio as their collective instrument. On their debut LP Soft Opening, Terry Gross channels their cosmic powers and considerable chops into a gleefully mesmerizing odyssey fit for an arena.

Cumbia vallenato legend from Colombia hits Kingston! This band brings the cumbia fire bigtime!
TICKETS
Alberto “Beto” Jamaica is one of the leading vallenato and cumbia players in Colombia. Since winning the prestigious Leyenda Vallenata Festival competition in 2006 he has become known as Rey Vallenato Colombia (“The Vallenato King”). His music is a vibrant mix of cumbia, paseo, and porro all wrapped into his infectious accordion driven vallenato.
Vallenato is one of Colombia's most popular forms of folk music. Native to Colombia's Caribbean Coast it literally translates as “born in the valley”, the valley being the one found between Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta and Serranía de Perijá.
Originally the music of herders who combined the tradition of Spanish juglares or minstrels with the griot tradition of West Africa, vallenato historically served a dual purpose. As they traveled from village to village the herders would entertain themselves by singing and playing guitars or the indigenous gaita flutes.
They would also use song to deliver news and messages to the villages. In the late 1800s accordion was introduced replacing the gaita. Vallenato encompasses a variety of rhythms: paseo vallenato, merengue, puya, son and tambora. Beto Jamaica contemporised the vallenato tradition by adding electric bass, congas and timbales to the traditional lineup of accordion, guacharaca (a tube-shaped percussion instrument scraped with a metal “fork”) and caja vallenata (small goat leather drum) while never losing sight of the music's roots.

Gwenifer Raymond began playing guitar at the age of eight shortly after having been first exposed to punk and grunge. After years of playing around the Welsh valleys in various punk outfits she began listening more to pre-war blues musicians as well as Appalachian folk players, eventually leading into the guitar players of the American Primitive genre.
She released her sophomore LP ‘Strange Lights Over Garth Mountain’ at the end of 2020 to a rapturous response. Her debut ‘You Never Were Much Of A Dancer’ emerged on Tompkins Square to the same response in 2018. She has found herself equally embraced by fans of old-west and equally, by left field/experimental audiences.
Appearances throughout the UK and the EU have established her as one of the leading lights of the scene, and not to be missed under any circumstances.

Los Angeles-based musician Charles Moothart (Fuzz, Goggs, Ty Segall’s Freedom Band) released previous solo work under the moniker CFM. Change is the only universal truth, and now it is time to brandish the full name. Moothart's new album Black Holes Don't Choke (In The Red) is his the most self-assured solo release to date. Heavy riffs alternating with spacious tunes, and a live set that vacillates from fast and loose to groovy and heady. Moothart is now touring with the Fast Band, which is comprised of 4 veterans of the Los Angeles music scene with too many credentials to list. This lineup brings a new sense of dynamic while holding on to grit and drive. All of these factors crack open a new chapter for the Californian multi-instrumentalist.
Marisa Anderson channels the history of the guitar and stretches the boundaries of tradition. Her deeply original work applies elements of minimalism, electronic music, drone and 20th century classical music to compositions based on blues, jazz, gospel and country music, re-imagining the landscape of American music. The New Yorker calls Anderson ‘one of the most distinctive guitar players of her generation’, while NPR refers to her as among ‘this era’s most powerful players’ . Her work has been featured in Billboard, Rolling Stone, NPR, SPIN, Pitchfork, the BBC and The Wire. Festival appearances include Big Ears, Pitchfork Midwinter, Le Guess Who and the Copenhagen Jazz Festival. Her latest solo album, Still, Here, is out now on Thrill Jockey Records.
Pete Bernhard is the singer and main songwriter for the band The Devil Makes Three and has been touring the US, Canada and Europe for nearly 20 years.

Immersed in music at a young age, he was drawn to older, traditional finger picking blues and folk music.

For singer/songwriter Al Olender, facing her fear of the truth has been a cleansing, often cathartic process that’s led to the kind of revelations she had previously thought unobtainable. On her debut full-length album Easy Crier, the Upstate New York based artist asks: what happens if we vow to never tell a lie, ever again? Charting the daunting territories of staring your demons right in the face and prodding at the ugly parts of your reflection, Olender pieces together her most vulnerable moments to produce a celebratory and beautiful rumination on grief, and reminds us of the power that comes in really getting to know yourself.
The Brother Moves On (TBMO) is a South African performance art ensemble based in Johannesburg, Gauteng.

Container is the project of American noise veteran Ren Schofield, originally from Providence, Rhode Island, and now based in London. Container first appeared at the turn of the decade with a slew of freakish tapes for various small labels. In wake of these releases, Editions Mego offshoot Spectrum Spools – run by old friend John Elliott of the band Emeralds – took the punt to release his debut LP, a collection of mutated Techno tracks simply titled ‘LP’. The record gained attention quickly in the Electronic music scene largely thanks to Schofield’s unique production style that separates him from forms of conventional dance music. Whilst the music of Container sits perfectly fine within the genre and is functional enough to blow apart the walls of any club, years on the US noise circuit have given Schofield’s brand of techno a rawness and direct intensity that stands out in the club and crosses over into other sub-sections of the underground.

While we wait for the fruits of those sessions, dig Emergency Group’s first Lagniappe Session — it’s a doozy.

Snõõper (the Project) began as a collaboration between local Nashville punk mainstay Connor Cummins and Blair Tramel, an early education teacher with a sideline in wickedly funny animation and art. As their cassette tapes and homemade videos began to find scattered fans around the world, the duo brought the Project to the live stage in late 2021 and Snõõper (the Band) was born.
Featuring one of the wildest live shows out there, as well a maelstrom of puppets, 8 bit animation, papier-mâché, whistles, flashing lights and a whirling dervish of bodies, Snõõper commits the live act to a studio setting and sets the stage for one of the most promising punk debut albums in decades.
But don’t take our word for it; here’s Henry Rollins, at-length on the magic of Snõõper:
In the briefest of descriptions, Snõõper is a band who, in a 33 1/3 rpm world, make 45 rpm music they play at 78 and it completely works.

Simple put one of the greatest diy american bands of all time. Naturally, they are from Detroit.
Tyvek is an evolving meditation on the bizarre world we’ve created. While the format of a blistering punk group might not scream subtlety, the introspective lyrics and recurring themes of the group provide a far greater dividend than one might initially expect. Laying down the defensive wall of distorted guitars and building on a dream-like narrative with a request for human decency, Tyvek continues and puts down another album leaving much to think upon.

Six Organs of Admittance is the project of Ben Chasny. The original inspiration for the band came from wanting to merge the styles of finger-style acoustic guitar with more improvisational drone elements. A copy of Hans Peter Duerr’s Dreamtime book (a gift from Ben’s friend Rob Fisk) provided the early blueprint for the analogy of fingerstyle = civilization vs. noise = wilderness that was to dominate the first few releases. Early records were recorded on a Tascam 424 mkII four-track and self-released while Ben still lived in Humboldt County. A new record "Time Is Glass" is out on Drag City April 26th
Chasny is also a member of the psychedelic band Comets on Fire, and has working relationships with Badgerlore, Current 93, and Magik Markers.
Tashi Dorji is a Bhutanese guitarist and improvisational musician known for his avant-garde and experimental (read: deeply gnarly, finely arty) approach to music.

"A Little Touch of Schleicher in the Night is an excellent attestation to von Schleicher and collaborator Sam Griffin Owens’ direction: Every song sounds textured and multifaceted, with steady builds and decrescendos that juxtapose joy with the comedown. The arrangements—a menagerie of saxophones, clarinets, and violins with the jaunty bounce of guitar chords—walk a tightrope between the schmaltz of a Herb Alpert record and the evocative swell of Brenda Lee’s 'Emotions.' It succeeds as party music, the kind that starts jubilantly and lapses into wine-drunk silence." —Pitchfork

"On Fire Island" is Saapato's introspective journey into the heart of one of New York's most unique and vulnerable landscapes. Born from a residency with the National Park Service on the island, this album diverges from Principato's initial expectations of capturing avian melodies to instead embrace the raw, unyielding forces of wind, waves, and the whispering grasses that define Fire Island's rare and rapidly disappearing ecosystems.
The album is a testament to Principato's encounter with the island's beauty and its precarious future. Amidst the omnipresent hums, whirs, and whooshing of the natural world, "On Fire Island" weaves a narrative of contrast—celebrating the untouched wilderness while lamenting the scars left by human encroachment. From the pollution that threatens the marsh ecosystems to the steady retreat of the shoreline, the album serves as an aural snapshot of a biodiverse jewel on the brink of transformation.
Through a delicate balance of field recordings made on the island and synthesizer compositions crafted by night inside a beachside bungalow, Saapato offers a slow, gentle exploration of this dichotomy. The sonic terrain of "On Fire Island" is an immersive experience that reveals the eerie fragility of our natural world and echoes a plea for conservation. It invites listeners to feel the undercurrents of urgency, to recognize the beauty that surrounds us, and to acknowledge the impact of our actions on the environment. With "On Fire Island," Saapato continues to challenge us to listen more deeply, not just to the music, but to the world around us.
John Thayer is a New York-based musician and engineer whose experiential compositions are inspired by a deep attention to the sounds of the natural world. His recordings, centered around a hybrid of studio techniques and improvisatory performance, range from long-form, multilayered ambience to polyrhythmic electro-acoustic collage.

Writhing Squares bring no disappointment, slump or stumble. The band is as restless and as ragged as ever on the new LP. Built from the embers of space rock and punk while chasing the same fevered hallucinations that haunted the ‘70s German Progressive set, Out Of The Ether imagines a less meditative method than the rhythmic wranglers that came before them. Storming through the halls of Hawkwind’s leather n’ lather vibes with whiffs of Amon Düül II piped in one speaker and The Contortions piped in the other, Writhing Squares aren’t here to get Kosmiche. - Raven Sings the Blues
Tendrils of atmospheric synths and hallucinatory textures draw the listener into Cultural Payout, the debut album from Brooklyn’s Gift Horse. Comprised of Jonathan Schenke (P.E., Eaters) and Matthew Hord (Pop. 1280, Fine Place), the duo dive deep into leftfield beats and hardware electronics across the span of six sprawling songs. Shadowy melodies, cracked rhythms, and nostalgic bliss swirl together, transporting their audience through potent memories and unfamiliar landscapes alike.
Schenke and Hord trace their connections back to the smoke-stained Chicago experimental scene (where Hord started the beloved band Running), and reconnected years later in Brooklyn. After repeatedly crossing paths both onstage and in the studio, the two decided to experiment writing together, setting up their synths and drum machines for an extended weekend in early 2022 at Schenke’s Studio Windows. That fruitful session laid the foundations for their debut, and – in between other projects, tours, and a debut sold out show at Union Pool – the duo wrote and refined the album over the course of the year. Cultural Payout is out this summer on Ryley Walker’s Husky Pants Records.

Glockabelle is a Casio VL-Tone and glockenspiel shredder who sings in both French and English. Her frenetic sound stems from a combination of inspiration and circumstance. Born to Francophone parents, Glockabelle received an education stateside and in France.

She also invented a unique technique for playing the glockenspiel: not with mallets but with eight sewing thimbles.

Songwriter, vocalist, and producer Opal Hoyt is a conjurer and Zenizen is the result. On record P.O.C. (Proof of Concept), from 2022, is the first full-length, preceded by a handful of singles. Hoyt’s dry, lilting vocals, battery of electronics, and sampled field recordings are supplanted by a flowery ensemble brilliance, arrangements that fold in choral backing, saxophone burbles, and emphatically slinky rhythms. Despite all of these elements the output is tight and unfussy, emerging with natural, conversational grooves. It takes a lot of continual work for music to sound this effortless.

In the late 1980s, the world experienced a second Summer of Love, when the spirit of freedom—and hedonism—once shared by psychedelic San Francisco hippies in 1967 was revitalized in the United Kingdom, fostered in illegal underground raves fueled by MDMA and acid house imported from the shores of Ibiza. Rave culture spread around the world like wildfire, and few places embraced it like Florida, where scenes coalesced in places like Miami, Tampa, Orlando, and Gainesville, making the state a rave capital for much of the ’90s. They Hate Change, a rap duo from Tampa steeped in the myriad electronic subgenres that permeated their home state, represent the latest stage in the evolution of sounds that traveled from Chicago to Ibiza, from London to Miami. On their latest LP, Finally, New, they spit aggressive, East Coast-flavored braggadocio raps over UK breaks and drum’n’bass beats filtered through local styles like Tampa jook and Miami bass. Even amid a deluge of rap music made with sounds from the club, little else sounds like this.

The duo originally started out with the moniker “10” but since the birth of their son RAAI (who joins them on tour and often on stage) in 2012, have called themselves TENGGER (meaning ‘unlimited expanse of sky’ in Mongolian) to mark the expansion of the family. It also means ‘huge sea’ in Hungarian.
Mike Newman introduced me to Tengger. The label he ran called Beyond Beyond is Beyond Records released a couple Tengger records. Seems appropriate to have him DJ!
tickets at the door! music at 8!!
Country Westerns is a three-piece rock band from Nashville that sounds nothing like its name. Drummer Brian Kotzur (Trash Humpers, Silver Jews) and singer-songwriter-guitarist Joseph Plunket (The Weight, Gentleman Jesse) began working on songs together in 2016, after bonding over the shared desire to be in a band in a town full of solo artists and guns-for-hire. Smoking live band.
I'm assuming most of the patrons of Tubby's are quite familiar with Garcia Peoples. The homies!
