Jounce @ NYCUG Launch Party 10/12

Jounce is the definition of a party Band – with DJ like precision, they read the crowd, reach into their deep library of tunes and play exactly what the crowd needs at that very moment. The foursome has spent the greater part of the past 7 years jamming in basements, parties, and local bars – honing in on a style of music that can best be described as Experimental Jazz/Rock.

These guys are an extremely talented, hard working, and close-knit bunch. NYCUG is proud to have them join us in kicking off a new movement in NYC Underground Music.

JAMIE LIDELL w/ Of Montreal, Tuesday 9/26, Irving Plaza

Compared by many to a "21st century Little Richard," Jamie Lidell is a throwback in every sense of the word, while still managing to sound fresh, and not the least bit contrived. And I will say this, if you haven't had a chance to see Lidell in person yet, this dude's a must-see. With long, rambling improvisations and enough energy to knock you back to 1957, Jamie Lidell makes damn sure no one leaves without feeling that SOUL power. While still hugely impressive, his 2005 release, Multiply, doesn't really do his live show justice; you just can't bottle all that soul up into a single Pro Tools session. Just can't be done. That said, Lidell's in New York for one night only at Irving Plaza this Tuesday with Of Montreal. Definitely worth checking out.
