CITY OF THE SUN w/ Feverkin – 21+
The music of City of the Sun is essentially a genre of its own – experimental, yet accessible, filled with tension, yet still joyful. Theirs is a sound which you can neither pinpoint, nor stop listening. The NYC powerhouse group flipped the perception of instrumental music on its head, attracting a new generation of young people to the genre, many of whom had not previously listened to instrumental music. City of the Sun cut their teeth on the streets of NYC busking for large crowds in places like Union Square, Washington Square Park and Central Park, gaining attention as “that band you need to check out.” Word got out quickly and it grew to a huge online presence, then to tens of millions of views on YouTube and over 120 million-plus streams, as well as sold out shows nationwide and throughout Europe and the UK. At its core are founding members John Pita, lead guitarist and frontman, who was raised in Ecuador with all its influences, and percussionist/drummer Zach Para, a Seattle native who made his way in the jazz world and studied at the Boston Conservatory before connecting with John in NYC. Rounding out the quartet are bassist Matt Fasano and guitarist Marco Bolfelli. The band’s sound has an array of influences that include everything from Indie Rock to American Folk, Flamenco, and Blues. At the beginning, they bonded over everything from Dire Straits to Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin to Santana and The War on Drugs to Coldplay. They would mine the inspirations and introduce a melodic joy through virtuosic chops. As John says, “The good thing about being an instrumental band and having played on the streets for so long is that we had a bunch of colors to work with and could use them as we pleased to create something new and paint our own picture.” In 2016, City Of The Sun released their debut album, To The Sun And All The Cities In Between, which included the fan favorite “Everything.” That song went on to amass over 20 million Spotify streams and the album over 42 million. A year later, from their Untitled EP, “Perfect Instance” scored over 25 million-plus streams and the 2018 single, “Ventura,” another 15-plus million, bringing the total EP streams to over 47 million. In 2019, the band worked with producer Damien Taylor (Bjork, Arcade Fire, The Killers, Robyn) for three weeks, distilling their various inspirations into a bold body of work with the scope of a Sergio Leone soundtrack. Most of those tracks were released over the course of many months and brought in over 25 million streams for the album. City of the Sun has sold out some of NYC’s most prestigious venues, including Brooklyn Steel, Irving Plaza, Bowery Ballroom and Gramercy Theater. They’ve toured with Thievery Corporation, Peter Bjorn & John, G. Love, STS9 and others, and were featured artists at Panorama NYC, Billboard’s Hot 100, Firefly, BottleRock Napa music festivals; and also scored “The C Word” documentary soundtrack (directed by Meghan O’Hara and narrated by Morgan Freeman.) In December 2019, they made a splash in Europe and the UK, selling out 17 out of their 19 shows, first time in nearly every market. This continued when they returned in 2022 and will again as they return with Thievery Corporation (and other shows) in June/July 2024. City of the Sun will return to the studio in 2024 with a roster of new songs and a well of renewed energy after some of their best-ever received shows throughout the West Coast 2023 and Northeast in early 2024. Expect to start hearing some new music hitting by the end of the year.
Brooke Candy w/ BbyAfricka & Tash Blake – 21+
An undisputed icon of the underground music, fashion, and queer art scenes, Brooke Candy is a sex-positive pop idol whose wide-ranging creative output revels in defiant glamour, embodying both speculative futures and über-romantic nostalgia. Born and raised in Los Angeles, Candy first gained notoriety from her work on Grimes’ 2012 music video “Genesis,” followed quickly by high-profile collaborations with such fellow iconoclasts as Charli XCX, Sia, Diplo, Lizzo, Pussy Riot, Sophie, Mykki Blanco, and countless more. The multi-faceted, infinitely talented Candy has explored an array of inspired possibilities throughout her career, from styling music videos (including Lizzo’s “Truth Hurts” and David Guetta & Afrojack Ft. Charli XCX & French Montana’s “Dirty Sexy Money”) and teaching performing arts classes at New York University to collaborations with the Brooklyn Museum and Los Angeles’ Museum of Contemporary Art (MOCA) and brand partnerships with MAC Cosmetics and Diesel. Though Candy does give us amazing visuals, her work runs deeper. It also led her to dive deeper into feminism and advocating for sex workers. Candy is not only transparent about her sex-industry past, but also about her previous issues with drugs and mental health, topics she addresses in her first studio album Sexcorcism’s single and video, “Happy. Now, with a decade of experience under Candy’s belt, she has a newfound zen-like perspective of independence as an artist and is excited to create more music dedicated to her femme/LGBTQ community. Hailing from Inglewood, CA, Bbyafricka has been an iconic staple in the music and fashion culture for years. Her raw and authentic energy garnered the attention of many, including Saweetie and Lil Yachty, who have both hopped on tracks with her, as well as on the fashion side, as she was featured in magazines such as GALORE, Office, and PAPER. She has steadily increased her loyal fanbase, reaching into the dance world where her EDM song “Biggest Regret” has over 4M streams, and she has performed at Rolling Loud LA. Tash Blake, a 21-year-old LA-based singer-songwriter, captivates with her sultry, provocativemusic inspired by Madonna, Lady Gaga, and Kurt Cobain. Known for her bold performances,she explores themes of loneliness and the “villain” persona. Tash’s debut single “Mannequin”garnered over 3.4 million views, and her latest EP, Poster Girl, includes the single “LATEX,”created in collaboration with producers Jenna Andrews and Stephen Kirk.

Theirs is an extremely tight-knit collective — at their inception, most of them lived together in a haunted mansion in North Portland’s Portsmouth neighborhood (several still keep an address there, and they continue to use its basement as band headquarters) — and that intense closeness is clear in both their writing and performance.

Zauberer: A Klaus Schulze Birthday Celebration feat. Pulse Emitter, Arkham Sunset, FunSize Renegade- 21+
One of modern electronic music’s undisputed founders, Klaus Schulze conjured intuitive paths to otherworldly places. His emotive improvisation resulted in a warmth and charm often absent in the music of his peers. From his inventive drumming on Tangerine Dream’s first album to the gorgeous brilliance of the posthumously released Dune-themed Deus Arrakis, Schulze ’s legacy continues to expand minds and inspire new generations of aural explorers. Join us as we celebrate Der Zauberer Klaus Schulze with live tribute performances from three very different musicians: Pulse Emitter (Daryl Groetsch) began experimenting with electronic music in the late 1990’s, progressing from from creating noisy dronescapes on a self-built modular synthesizer to incorporating melodic, sequencer-driven arrangements with layered vintage synths, to implementing acoustic world instruments and software synthesis. Groetsch has released albums on Hausu Mountain, Constellation Tatsu, Aguirre, Beer On The Rug, and Ultra Eczema, and has toured dates and festivals in Europe and North America. A classically trained musician, Pulse Emitter constantly finds new way to develop expansive tapestries of sound. https://darylgroetsch.com/ Electronic producer Arkham Sunset (Gerry Hathaway) has been creating cinematic Industrial, Synthpop, krautrock, and Dark Ambient textures in PDX for five years, with three full length records and half a dozen EP’s to his credit. Arkham Sunset brings an intense visual aesthetic to live shows built around futuristic lighting techniques and a wide array of both analog and digital synthesizers & drum machines. https://arkhamsunset.bandcamp.com/ FunSize Renegade is the solo project of Christopher Read (Manta, Quiet!, Time Grenade). His DIY recordings are informed by an organic Berlin School approach, the eerie film scores of John Carpenter and electro’s joyful pulse. For Zauberer, Read will be accompanied by Time Grenade collaborators Jennifer Beck and Andy Harmsen on electric viola and drums. https://funsizerenegade.bandcamp.com/
