Actual/Actual on tour in spring 2025 on behalf of our new album, "Dimensionality" on Edgetone Records. This is our 2nd full length album and features special guests Melvin Cortez Jackson on French Horn and percussionist Aaron Putnam. The album shows the band's varied inclinations and versatility, traversing energy/fire music to chamber improv to musique concrete, modal jazz jams, Latin and New Orleans music, and more. ACTUAL/ACTUAL features Bay Area saxophonist Rent Romus with Ohio improvisers Josh Strange on vibraphone & trumpet, Gerard Cox on keys & synth bass, and Troy Kunkler on drums.
Multi-instrumentalist Nick Weckman will be our special guest for this concert! He'll appear in the second half of the show.
We'll start at 8 and there will be food and drink on hand. Doors open 7 pm. Come celebrate with us! We'll raffle off a few cds and t-shirts. Admission is $10-20 suggested, NOTAFLOF.

"Spectral moments surface throughout as a bit of other-worldliness emerging from brassy cacophony. Raucous, delicately haunting, and most definitely coy, the album has a kind of nonchalant majesty to it." - Elise Mills, White Crate
"Baptismal is the group's debut and presents a band with high energy, lots of creativity, close interplay, subtlety, and plenty of fire" - Richard Gilman-Opalsky, Activator Magazine
"This is free jazz - you might think, well yeah, 70s style Milt Jackson - but somehow these chaps keep an edge to things. There is a continuous presence of free improvisation lurking around the corner, as well as a more 'rock' style approach to playing..." RSW, Vital Weekly
