About KZSC PRESENTS: SUNWATCHERS, BEAT TAPE, YOSHREDYO
“Hard to pin down, harder to hold onto. Bent circuit board snake charmers unfurl across hexagonal grids. A seemingly familiar sound but then you realize you have your ear pressed against a reflection. Sunwatchers are a distorted prism to so many past greats. Reminiscent of Ethiopiques, John Handy Band, Terry Riley, Art Ensemble meets Laddio Bolocko...Forever swirling saxophone blended belly to belly with elastic guitar and tin foil thin phin (a thai instrument not unlike an electrified tenor guitar or sitar). A whirlpool of repetitious interpretations. Militaristic marches ascend into meditations. These songs map out great pyramids and deep buried labyrinths. They are massive. They are leviathans.
The band is comprised of NYC improv heavy hitters:
Jim McHugh: Guitar, Electric Phin - Peter Kerlin: Bass - Jeff Tobias: Alto Sax - Cory Bracken: Vibes, Percussion - Jason Robira: Drums - and sitting in are: Dave Harrington: Guitar, Synth - Ben Greenberg: Guitar - Dave Kadden: Keyboard - Jonah Rapino: Fiddle
Notable previous projects include Dark Meat, Arthur Doyle’s New Quiet Screamers, NYMPH, and Chris Forsyth's Solar Motel Band AND comes with an amazing cover painting of Handsome Jimmy Valiant by artist Scott Lenhardt. A strange but somehow sensible match made in heaven. Dream machinery. Just plain far out. Look for traces of this one in your brain jelly afterwards... cheers” - John Dwyer
