THURS NOV 21 - Quasi take the stage with Blues Control QUASI is Janet Weiss (previously of Wild Flag, Sleater-Kinney) and Sam Coomes (Heatmiser). The band are on tour to support Mole City, their first Quasi album since 2010s American Gong. BLUES CONTROL make instrumental music that defies easy categorization. Check out this bit of Pitchforks review of their last album, Valley Tangents: Suggesting Vince Guaraldi leading an acid-jazz workshop, the tune bounces on springs, Cho dancing above Nakatanis groove with nimble variations. Around it all, Waterhouse applies a generously kaleidoscopic sound-- pastel synthesizers and neon guitar, saturating the scene with weird light. Especially for a pair of musicians who emerged from a crowd and moment known more for sonic intrigue than technical skills, the playing here is astonishing. Cho and Waterhouse parallel and counter each others themes in the last 90 seconds as though they were the Dead operating on a strict timetable. Doors 8pm Tickets at Red Cat Records.
