Monday June 1 * doors at 6:30, music at 7 * $15-20 * TICKETSThe Early is Alex Lewis (guitars, synthesizers) and Jake Nussbaum (drums, electronics). The two began playing music together in high school during the apex of post-rock, fixated on acts like Do Make Say Think, Jim O’Rourke, and Tortoise. Reunited in Philadelphia in 2019, the two have spent the past seven years reinventing their shared musical language, infusing the textural grandeur of post-rock with the communicational intimacy of jazz improvisation, the patient grooves of minimalism, electronica, and drone. Their 2026 release, I Want To Be Ready (Island House Recordings) was described by Record Crates United as “drifty, minimalist jazz fusion soundscapes that hum, drone and rumble like the atmosphere of a clockwork city.”
Bent Light is the duo of Michael Slyne and Russel Linder. 2 punk rockers and less volume. Two guitars. Millions of pedals. Busted tape machines sing too. Sometimes beautiful, sometimes harsh. They say it feels like a dream.
Raven Bauer Durham is an experimental guitar-based performer from Virginia, incorporating electric and acoustic ambient textures, voice, and song layers. Previously a member of the improvisational group Phoenix Auto Group.
