The cotnplete Decetnber schedule follows. , • ca e IV8 mort! ... l BAA1cafe 2 Friday, December 2 at 9pm Kneebody Kneebody i an exciting group of young musician meshing the improvi ational skills of modern jazz and the wagger of hip-hop with the conviction of rock. The result is an organic instrumental sound that has, as one mu ic reviewer wrote, "an epic, tran -generational gravity." Educated at the Eastman School of Music and the California In titute of the Arts, Kneebody's five members have backed figures from an astonishing range of arti tic ensibilitie , including Ani DiFranco, Snoop Dogg, Daedelus, Chaka Khan, David Murray, Jimmy Chamberlin, and Ravi Coltrane. As New York trumpeter Dave Douglas says of the band-having signed them to hi new Greenleaf Mu ic label-"this is everything jazz should be, and so much more." Saturday, December 3 at 9pm The New Cookers The New Cookers are young lions on today' s New York City jazz scene who formed to celebrate the jazz sound of Brooklyn. Their name derives from the legendary album by the great trumpeter Freddie Hubbard, Night of the Cookers, recorded live at the seminal Club La Marchal in Brooklyn in 1965. This performance will feature the music of several of Brooklyn's own, including Kenny Dorham, as well as original pieces by the band. The audience will be treated to a blow off of dueling trumpets between Kenyatta Beasley and Maurice Brown during the playing of "Pensativa," recalling the classic locking of the horns between Hubbard and Lee Morgan during the legendary Club La Marchal gig. Friday, December 9 at 9pm Haale ('Haale ... underscores the evolution and transforn1ation of centuries-old artfornis as they adapt to the new realities of a n1ultiethnic city ... ,_ TheNew York Times New York-born vocalist Haale and her band create a swirling, hypnotic, and exhilarating experience onstage, weaving Persian melodies and poetry through a lush soundscape that pays homage to Sufi musical traditions and psychedelic rock. Though she sings mostly in Persian, the music speaks all languages, loudly, passionately, and defiantly. Haale incorporates the lyrics of Iranian poets such as Rumi into her songs, as well as more contemporary poets like Forugh Farrokhzad and Kadkani to form a blend of ageless, wondrous music. Saturday, December 10 at 9pm Edison Woods Strange and mischievous, haunting and romantic, Edison Woods is a band possessing a soft spot for luscious, sad songs. They tell their tales with strings and piano, baritone sax, silver guitars, drums, and singer Julia Frodahl 's heavenly vocal harmonies. Described as "a beautiful cross between the sounds of Elysian Fields and the sentiments of David Lynch" by Flavorpill NYC, their music stands as testament to the exquisite power of mysterious, poignant melody. Live, their musical passages, spoken word, and discreet gestures sweep the audience along into a dreamlike world created by an ensemble of remarkably talented musicians. Friday, December 16 & Saturday, December 17 at 9pm EtheVGutbucket This weekend BAMcafe Live presents a double bill featuring New York quartet Gutbucket and experimental chamber ensemble Ethel. Flitting from Latin to polka to klezmer, often within the space of a few bar , Gutbucket attacks their music with a ferocity usually reserved for punk rock, despite possessing assured jazz bona fide . They share the bill with Ethel, a string quartet that has quickly emerged as a powerful musical voice in New more ... BAJ\1cafe 3 York City's ever-evolving concert scene. The all-star foursome stretches itself far past the limits of convention, genre, and style. Members of Ethel have performed and/or recorded with Bang On A Can, the New York Chamber Symphony, Steve Reich Ensemble, and Yo-Yo Ma, among many others, owing to an eclectic, genre exploring musical perspective. Friday, Dec. 23 at 9pm African Blue Note Led by guitarist and vocalist Martino Atangana from Cameroon, African Blue Note heats up a mix of African musical styles, including "juju" from Nigeria, "soukous" from Congo, " bikutsi" and "makossa" from Cameroon, "high life" from Ghana, and more.

  • Press Release
    Theo Bleckmann Performs Hello Earth! – The Music of Kate Bush Presented by Bang on a Can and the Jewish Museum Photo by Lynne Harty available in high resolution upon request Thursday, November 14, 2019 at 7:30pm Scheuer Auditorium at the Jewish Museum | 1109 5th Ave at 92nd Street | New York, NY Tickets: $20 General; $16 Students and Seniors; $12 Jewish Museum Members Available at www.thejewishmuseum.org. Includes museum admission. New York, NY – Bang on a Can and the Jewish Museum’s 2019-2020 concert season continues on Thursday, November 14, 2019 at 7:30pm at the Jewish Museum (1109 Fifth Avenue at 92nd Street). Grammy-nominated jazz singer, new music composer, and long time collaborator with Bang on a Can, Theo Bleckmann takes on the mysterious songbook of British pop icon Kate Bush in a project entitled Hello Earth! – The Music of Kate Bush that goes beyond re-creating her music to further realms of sound and interpretation. Joining him on this performance are long-time collaborators percussionist Ben Wittman, bassist Chris Tarry, and keyboardist Henry Hey, along with special guest, multi-instrumentalist Caleb Burhans on viola, guitar, and laptop. Of his 2011 recording for Winter & Winter, The New York Times writes, “Bleckmann treats Bush's music as he would that of Charles Ives, Thelonious Monk, George Gershwin, Guillaume de Machaut, Joni Mitchell or any other composer he takes on: with love, respect and an insatiable curiosity for new possibilities.” Bleckmann says of Kate Bush, "Her music has this thing that I love in art: you're instantly drawn into someone's universe without really knowing why but somehow understanding everything in your heart …I now realize that the way she layered sound, speech and music became a major influence for my live electronic looping aesthetic.” The 2019-2020 season marks the sixth year of the Jewish Museum and Bang on a Can’s partnership.

  • BIO KNEEBODY Kneebody's Sound Is Explosive Rock Energy Paralleled
    BIO KNEEBODY Kneebody’s sound is explosive rock energy paralleled with high-level nuanced chamber ensemble playing, with highly wrought compositions that are balanced with adventurous no-holds-barred improvising. All “sounds-like” references can be set aside; this band has created a genre and style all its own. Kneebody is keyboardist Adam Benjamin, trumpeter Shane Endsley, saxophonist Ben Wendel and drummer Nate Wood. The band has no leader or rather, each member is the leader; they’ve developed their own musical language, inventing a unique cueing system that allows them each to change the tempo, key, style, and more in an instant. The quintet met in their late teens while at The Eastman School of Music and Cal Arts, became fast friends, and converged together as Kneebody amid the vibrant and eclectic music scene of Los Angeles in 2001. Since then, each band member has amassed an impressive list of credits and accomplishments over the years all while the band has continued to thrive and grow in reputation, solidifying a fan base around the world. “We are a democratic, equally owned-and-operated band with shared leadership,” says Shane Endsley. “Everyone brings in music and everyone votes on everything”. Kneebody draws upon influences spanning D’Angelo’s Voodoo to music by Elliot Smith, Bill Frisell, and Miles Davis. Their live shows are known for intense sonic landscapes of the Radiohead ilk, for the rhythmic bombast of a Squarepusher or Queens of the Stone Age show, and the harmonic depth and improvisational freedom experienced at a Brad Mehldau concert. In 2005, Kneebody released their debut self-titled album Kneebody on Dave Douglas’ Greenleaf Music Label.
