"Keyboardist Marco Benevento takes a crack at covering rock acts both old (Led Zeppelin, George
Harrison) and new (Deerhoof, My Morning Jacket). The results are often arresting."
—The New York Times
Marco Benevento initially garnered national attention playing Hammond B-3 organ and Wurlitzer in The Benevento-Russo Duo, but he shifts the focus to acoustic piano with his own trio. Throughout his latest album Me Not Me, featuring interpretations of songs by artists including My Morning Jacket, Leonard Cohen and Deerhoof among others, he proves himself one of the most compelling sonic innovators of his generation, re-imagining the instrument by running it through pickups, delay and distortion pedals and a Fender Super Reverb Amp.
Nathan Moore wraps his boundary-stretching songs in an infectious indie-folk sound that takes listeners on a thrilling flight into the vastness of musical and emotional possibility. Nathan has been called “…one of the finest singer/songwriters of our generation" (Joe Adler, Glide Magazine) and is frequently compared to literary greats Dylan, Waits, Prine and Cohen, but never without an impressed nod to his uniqueness.
$12 advance, $15 Day Of Show.
