Holy Junk! This show is sure to be one of the greatest in the world. Better than the show where U2 played on top of that building. Here is the bio from Akron / Family’s website:
“Akron/Family are four extremely nice, sincere and well-mannered young men from rural America who came to NYC (in 2002) to make music, hoping to find a thread of real magic still winding through this city’s music scene. They certainly did just that, but they did it by retreating into a tiny Brooklyn apartment, where they made their own world instead, in complete and stubborn isolation. They proceeded (while simultaneously growing alarmingly long beards and developing a playful but hermetic quasi-religious/sonic worldview/creed known as ‘AK’ to make several albums worth of recordings on crude home equipment the material compulsively chopped, spliced, and orchestrated into fractal jewels of song and schismatically opposed atmospheres.”
Along with akron/family will be Greg Davis and Megafaun. CHECK THEM OUT:
