Last night I caught a *sick* Simulacrum set at Roulette. Simulacrum being a Zorn project featuring Medeski, Hollenberg, and Grohowski playing the heaviest shit imaginable. Bonkers how much range Zorn has.

Tonight: somehow saw my 2nd of 3 "play the full album" shows in a single week. How is that possible? This one was Grandaddy playing Sophtware Slump in full in celebration of its 25th anniversary. 25?? How is that possible? Holds up pretty well! Then a short second set of other stuff. Pretty strong show, good not great, but good is good!, at Brooklyn Steel.
Opener Greg Freeman had a cool indie rock thing, band included both sax and pedal steel which gave it some interesting sonic avenues. Will seek him out for sure (his newest album is not bad!).

Tonight: wasn't sure I was going to get into LunÀtico tonight, always tough, so when the host says I got a seat for you, you take it. Ends up being an inch from the front of center stage. A little close for comfort, but for Yacouba Sissoko, like a deep cleansing breath of fresh air. Nothing but positive vibes, serious West African grooves, and some of the best kora playing this side of the Atlantic. Thank god for livemusic.

And now, playing to an absolutely thrilled packed house, the rather excellent La LOM.

Tonight: easing back into some livemusic. Couldn't resist a set from a new band from some friends playing in a club directly across the street from the building I used to live in 24ish years ago. Needless to say, this place and pretty much everything else around it was NOT here when I lived here.
Music is great, though, and cool spot. Tasca playing organ trio mixed with jam and 80's vibes at Brooklyn Music Kitchen in Fort Greene.

Short stop at home to charge the phone a little and then a late night CitiBike to Red Hook...
One of the cooler livemusic happenings I know of is Ragas Live: 24 hours straight of ragas and the raga-inspired. The middle-of-the-night scene here is wild. Like a sleepover party for drone-loving music nerds.
We'll see how long I last.

LunÀtico maybe one of the best music rooms in town, but it's inconvenient to get to and now there's a good chance they turn you away when you get there, so don't go as often as I used to. Shame!
But took a chance on a short-week Tuesday late set and rewarded with a gorgeous set of finger-plucked folk from Lau Noah. Her new/debut album is a treat, check it out.

Tonight: first saw/heard of Arooj Aftab when she played in a duo for about 20 in a backyard in deep BK during the pandemic. Every time has been magical and now she's headlining Central Park Summerstage with a fabulous band on a mild summer's night. Lush and lovely, what could be bad?

Tonight: holiday spirit via Mali with the joyous kora wizardry of Yacouba Sissoko and his band Siya. Packed house at LunÀtico, and why not? He's pure liquid musical sunshine every dang time with an irresistible groove. Delicious!
