The Tubs: October 15, 2026 Tubby’s

October 20, 2026
By

The Tubs at Tubby’s.  It was inevitable.  It was also WELL worth the wait.

This was the first show on The Tub’s tour supporting their truly excellent “Hard Life” (Merge). For the next month, they will be crisscrossing the US and Canada, bringing their high-energy blend of hook-laden jangle pop to venues east and west. Lucky for us, this didn’t feel like a tour opener.  The band was tight and high-energy from the jump.

The set started, just as the record does, with the one – two punch of “Hard Life” and “Who’s Gonna Love You Now,” which had the crowd fully invested and singing along immediately.  They played a good chunk of the new record as well as choice cuts from the previous two albums. The set closed with the no bullshit Rock of “Wretched Lie” off their first record,  “Dead Meat”. This evening was definitely on the short list of best shows I’ve seen this year. It was so much fun, I’m considering going down to NYC for the tour closing set at LPR on 11/11. I even bought a T-Shirt.  I haven’t even bought a Tubby’s T-Shirt yet.

In the days since the show, I’ve struggled to explain to people exactly why I loved it so much. While I was working on mixing it, it finally came into focus. There is something about The Tubs sound that hits me in a very primal way.   It pulls the same type of emotions I had as a kid when I was first really discovering my own music.  Lying in my room listening to WLIR/WDRE and hearing these absolutely perfect songs from bands like REM and Teenage Fanclub. Back when all I cared about was if a song registered with me directly and immediately. Back when my only criterion for enjoyment was whether it elicited an emotional response beyond my control, and before I complicated things by trying to quantify or explain those feelings. When this was over, I wasn’t trying to explain to my son that the band is “a sort of harsh noise project inspired by minimal techno and Indian drone”.  None of those pretenses.  It’s four guys playing instruments and one guy singing about what he sees and feels. I was able to access the core memories of simply hearing and loving music without having to intellectualize it. I could just be in it.

I recorded this from the usual spot in the back with the MK22’s and a board feed from Tubby’s FOH engineer, Wil.  This was a rocker, so play it loud!

Speaking of Wil, shout out to him for pulling off some truly Herculean sound guy shit when the board essentially crashed after the opener, and he had to rebuild the band’s presets from memory. Buy this guy a beer next time you see him!

Silk Fence: October 7, 2026 Tubby’s

October 9, 2026
By

Silk Fence’s debut album was released less than a week ago and they got to celebrate by playing a 3 show run with Horse Lords and we were lucky enough to catch one!

Silk Fence is a project that fuses minimalism, jazz, kosmische repetition into a tightly coherent package of electroacoustic instrumentals.  I’d been listening to the album while working throughout the week and often found myself lost in the textures of sounds and floating blissfully through multiple relistens. It makes the passage of time seem inconsequential.

A trio consisting of Arian Shafiee (Guerilla Toss), Booker Stardrum (SML), and Justin Frye (PC Worship) Silk Fence are old friends finding new ways to explore sound.  Across the 30+ minute set they played through their entire new self titled album.  I found a personal connection to the album’s closing track “Statue of Liberty” so I was really excited to see that close out the set with a ten minute march towards bliss.

Sadly, Silk Fence doesn’t have any more dates lined up so for now, you’ll enjoy this recording as a taste of what’s to come. I recorded this from the usual spot in the back with Scheops MK22’s and a really nice board feed from Tubby’s ace FOH engineer, Wil.  Also, shout out to Reed Jackson for coining the term “Tubby’s Core” which got some good laughs from the staff while chatting prior to the show.

Hour: September 11, 2026 Tubby’s

September 28, 2026
By

I had never heard of Hour before this performance.  I came to see Thor & Friends and was greeted with what seemed to be an unusually large band setting up.  The woodwind player, Keith, came over and we got chatting. He explained that the ensemble was the brainchild of composer Michael Cormier-O’Leary.  This mostly-Philly-based instrumental ensemble was not only our opening act for the evening, but would also be providing the bulk of the “friends” for headliner Thor Harris & Friends.

Hour was a pleasure to listen to. Despite the size of the band, or maybe because of it, this is a group of musicians that understands how to listen to each other.  While mixing, I was shocked at how much space they each allowed. Nothing stepped on anything else, which really allows the listener to enjoy the huge dynamic range they play in.

I’ll lazily describe this ensemble as playing library music, but every piece feels more purposeful than what you usually find in those library comps. It also had interesting moments that somehow made me think of The Glands, a compliment I very, very rarely throw around.  

There is a lot of action coming up for Hour. A new record titled “Ghost Bridge” (Dear Life Records) is due out on October 9.  They will be playing two shows to celebrate the release: one in Philly on February 12th and one in NYC on February 13th. Both will feature a 13-piece ensemble and opening sets from the incredible Bridget St. John. You can find tickets and more info HERE.

I recorded this from our usual spot by the soundboard with the MK22’s and a really nice board feed from Tubby’s FOH engineer Nic Panken.  I think this is one of the best mixes I’ve heard Nic do in this room, and it makes for a fantastic listen with a glass of wine as we watch the Hudson Valley fall settle in.

Silver Triplets of the Rio Hondo: June 2, 2026 Tubby’s Kingston, NY

July 27, 2026
By

One of my least favorite things about being the “music guy” in various circles is when I have to try to explain what something sounds like. When you talk with other obsessives, it’s easier; you can talk about specific moments on obscure records or eras of labels to evoke an idea or feeling. But for people without that vocabulary, I generally find myself trying to lean on broad terms or genres, and it always feels like I’m short-changing someone’s vision. Portland’s Silver Triplets of the Rio Hondo seem to recognize this problem and have saved me the hassle by referring to themselves as “ranch house exotica” or “Sci-fi roadhouse for dissociatives.” Both of which feel accurate. 

I was unfamiliar with this band prior to looking over Tubby’s schedule for June. It took all of about 45 seconds of previewing their 2022 record, “Luminous Dial” to know I wanted to catch this show. The listener is immediately dropped into a very stylized and psychedelic version of a western film score. The recordings have the required drench of reverb but are made all the more interesting with curious samples and found sounds that seem to come from nowhere and everywhere and make for a very enjoyable headphone ride. 

The live show was similar. Reverb-soaked vocals courtesy of William Slater that invoke the spookiest version of Mexican poncho-wearing Clint Eastwood backed with Christopher Cook’s superb Tele playing. Big shout out to drummer Haven Multz Matthews for keeping the train on the tracks; there is a lot going on in these songs, and with no traditional rhythm section he is solely responsible for keeping it organized. It’s not easy to have things sound equally appropriate for Bakersfield or a basement avant-garde show. 

The Triplets mentioned they have new studio material on the horizon. You can get a taste via the lead single “Your Love” at their Bandcamp, as well as a version played this evening below. And while you’re over at their Bandcamp, why not grab their 2022 debut, “Luminous Dial? Keep an eye on their instagram for updates on the new record! 

I recorded this front eh usual spot in the back with the Scheops MK22’s and board feed from FOH engineer Wil.  I had to make some decisions while mixing to feature the room mic or the samples which came from the board feed more heavily. My default is always to lean towards the room sound which I did here.  The result is a stronger presence of vocals, drums and telecaster over some of the sampling but overall I think the sound is very good. Enjoy

M. Geddes Gengras: July 2, 2026 Tubby’s Kinston, NY

July 6, 2026
By

M. Geddes Gengras is a musical polymath.  Maybe you know him from his time with Akron/Family.  Or maybe from his work with The Congos. Or maybe you’ve seen him DJing. Or maybe…you get the idea.  He is always around doing something. But tonight we got to see him just be Ged.

This show was the release party for his excellent new record “Guest List” which was just released on the also excellent Hausu Mountain records. This album finds Ged accepting the role of “leader” in as much as anything this cosmic can be led.  A stacked line up of musicians take Ged’s compositions and filter it through their own lens before being fully assembled, and synthesized, by Ged himself. The result is a deeply personal excursion through all realms of psychedelic music.

For the live show he assembled a serious wrecking crew of Hudson Valley regulars.  Nick Malken and Ben Seretan on guitar, Jared Ashdown on sax, Otto Hauser and John Thayer on Drums. This ensemble was given extreme freedom to take these compositions to the headiest places possible.  You can find traces of the psychedelic tonal perfection of Tortoise living inside the deep weirdness of a ‘73 “Darkstar” giving way to something that could have been a B side on “ The Orb’s Adventures beyond the Ultraworld”. Like I said, heady shit.  I dare you to make it through “Motore” while maintaining a firm grasp on space and time.

This was recorded from my usual spot by the soundboard with Scheops MK22s and a really great mix by FOH engineer Wil. The separation on the synths is a pretty wild ride with headphones.  Highly recommended. However you listen to it, do it loud!

Doug Shaw: January 14, 2023 Tubby’s (Kingston, NY)

June 8, 2026
By

I first met Doug Shaw on May 13, 2022, when he played Tubby’s on a bill with Prison and Weak Signal. It takes something special to play solo, introspective acoustic guitar music in a room full of people there to see massive, overdriven, electric guitar music from the likes of Paul Major and Mike Bones. But that’s what this set was, captivating and transporting. He came up to me after the show and asked about getting a copy of the recording. He said he had felt really good on stage and was really happy with the performance, and that he might want to do something with it, so I gave him my email address and never heard from him again.

Eight months later, Doug was back at Tubby’s.  This time, he was opening for Garcia Peoples.  Tom introduced us, and he immediately started talking about the recording from back in May, and I promised to reach out to him again. From that point on, for the rest of the night, Doug was basically my best friend.  It was like we had spent decades hanging out in bars and venues together.

After the show, I gave him my cell phone number. I had a feeling email wasn’t present enough for him, and that the immediacy of text might be more effective. And for the next four months, we exchanged texts – a lot of texts. They were alternatively hilarious, sweet, and frustrating. He was hesitant about releasing it for reasons I didn’t fully understand. I had mixed the set back in May and found it incredibly powerful. There were vague concerns about the amount of reverb on the vocal, whether anyone would listen, and whether it was worth it.

Somewhere in here, I recognized a pattern I’ve known in other artist friends. Undeniable talent that had a hard time getting out of its own way to let people see it. I stuck with it and kept texting him. I even remixed it at least 3 different times and, full disclosure, one of the mixes had no changes, just to see if it mattered.  I don’t remember which version of what mix finally stuck, but on May 5, 2023, he released it as “Sleepy At Tubby’s”.

And then I never heard from Doug again.

In the past few days, as memories of Doug have poured in, I have come to realize that in similar situations with friends I’ve known a long time, I wouldn’t have been as persistent about seeing this recording released.  I would have prompted them a couple of times, then moved on, assuming they were “just not into it”. It saddens me to think of the things the world has been denied just because a friend didn’t try a little harder. 

It’s clear that Doug didn’t lack for people who loved him. But no one is immune to wanting to feel loved.  Maybe I should have sent a random text to say hi or see if he was going to be coming back up to Kingston to play. Maybe I should do that now, with all the people I love who I haven’t spoken to in a while.  Maybe we all should.

The recording below is the set Doug played on January 14, 2023, opening for Garcia Peoples. This is the first time anyone not in the room that night will have heard it.  I present it to all of Doug’s friends and family with love and gratitude for the art he shared with the world, and as a lasting document for future generations to discover.

Safe travels, Doug.

Yr Knives: May 4, 2026 Tubby’s

May 8, 2026
By

Yr Knives are the best band you’ve never heard of. You’ve definitely heard of the players in the band, but unless you’re a Chicago-area native, you’ve probably never heard the music. They haven’t played much outside of the Chicago area and, aside from a tour-only CD at the merch desk, currently have no recorded output. But when a band like The Messthetics hand-selects a group to open an East Coast run, you should probably pay attention.

Yr Knives is essentially a supergroup made up of a few of Chicago’s best: Andrew Trim and Brian Sulpizio on guitars, Douglas McCombs on bass, and Quin Kirchner on drums. Readers of this site may recognize Quin and Brian from their work with Ryley Walker, and everyone knows Doug’s work. This project, however, is truly better than the sum of its parts.

I had never heard of these guys before this show and, honestly, didn’t even know there was going to be an opening band for The Messthetics. It’s always a good sign when venue staff start telling you the opening band is good—but when the sound guy tells you the opening band is really good, you’d better pay attention. Opening with “Double A (Start Yr Singing),” the band’s thesis became apparent: tightly orchestrated guitar parts layered over a wide-reaching, free-roaming rhythm section. Did I mention the guitars sound HUGE, too? Giant and overdriven, with interwoven parts that had people bobbing their heads immediately. The set closed with a ripping version of Sonny Sharrock’s “Many Mansions.” Unbelievable.

While speaking with the guys after the set, I was happy to learn they have a debut record finished that will be coming out on Western Vinyl later this year. I’m super excited to see what these compositions turn into with full studio treatment. Sadly, this run of shows is over, but maybe this recording will get them on your radar for the next one.

I recorded this from my normal spot in the back with the Schoeps MK22s and an excellent board feed from Tubby’s FOH engineer Wil, who had the room sounding great all night. If you listen real closely at the end of the recording, you might even hear me turn to Wil and say, “That was fucking good!”; followed by Wil replying, “Yeah, I told you it would be.” Always trust the sound guy.

Bitchin Bajas: December 9, 2025 Tubby’s

December 12, 2025
By

Once a year, the Bajas come to Tubby’s, and every time, it’s one of the best nights of the year.

Every Bitchin’ Bajas track carries the chance of being lost forever inside its all-encompassing tones and zones. There are many reasons for this. Part of it is the illusion of time all of their compositions take on; it’s not a question of “has this been a minute or an hour?” It’s a question of “does that matter?” Another reason is the impossible pure tones that their synths ensconce the listener in. Yet another reason, and one that’s not often discussed, is the sound system.

Anyone who has seen Bitchin’ Bajas is familiar with the mad scientist’s tangle of cables and tables full of gear. What you may not realize is that they run this through their own sound system, which they carry on tour and operate live from the stage while playing. It seems like a wholly impossible task. I once asked Cooper how they manage it, and he said, “You just do it.”

I’m happy to report that the Bajas sound system is sounding better than I’ve ever heard it. After the show, Cooper mentioned that they had done significant work on it before this tour. Cracking things open and really putting in the solder time. It is incredibly loud and impossibly crystal clear. Absolutely no sound is out of place or unpleasant, with zero unintentional distortion or buzzing. When they stop playing, it’s dead quiet. The results of their modification would make Owsley proud.

This East Coast run finds them fresh off tour dates with kindred spirits Stereolab and supporting their excellent new record, “Inland Sea.” They played the entirety of the album as well as a few classics from “Baja Fresh”. They also played a new song, “Ajami,” which is currently only available on “Live! Grout?“, a tour-only 12” recorded with an entirely analog signal chain.

East Coast heads have three more tour dates to catch the Bajas before they take a short break and then head to the West Coast in February, followed by a trip to Europe in April. Don’t miss a chance to have your temporal load rearranged by this sound system!

I recorded this from my usual spot in the back with Scheops MK22s. The sound is incredible!

Minami Deutsch: October 1, 2025 Tubby’s

November 13, 2025
By

It’s been nearly six years to the day since I last saw Minami Deutsch. That night, they were opening for Kikagaku Moyo at the wonderful—but now sadly closed—Burlington, VT venue, Arts Riot. The band’s name translates to “South Germany,” so the krautrock analogies were impossible to avoid. But what I found then, and what still holds true now, is that this is much more than Neu! worship; this is a band that has drunk deeply from all corners of German avant-psychedelia and found ways to keep its 60+ years of tradition fresh.

Regardless of subgenre, when you speak about this musical movement, it always comes back to the motorik beat and its undeniable propulsion of both the music and the listener. Try listening to this recording without significant head-nodding—I dare you. For reference, check out the moment around 3:30 on “I’ve Seen a U.F.O.” when, after a significant build-up, the band drops into the beat with intention. The collective release was palpable. A fun bonus game: listen to the crowd reactions and meltdowns when they finally bring that monster of a jam to a close.

The band was also jamming on some new material during this tour, two of which we’ve captured here. I particularly enjoyed the first of those (track 4 on this recording), which finds them deep inside the soaring dual-guitar harmonies you may remember from Agitation Free. We need more bands influenced by Agitation Free.

Reviews from everyone I know who saw this tour are the same: this was one of the best sets of the year. They have some Euro dates coming up, so hopefully our friends on the other side of the pond have a chance to catch them soon.

I recorded this from the back with Schoeps MK22s and a nice board mix from Tubby’s FOH engineer, Wil. The sound is excellent!

Bonny Doon: August 21, 2025 Tubby’s

October 13, 2025
By

Unfortunately, I was unable to make Bonny Doon’s set last year when they came through with John Andrews, so I made sure the calendar was clear when this date was announced. “Let There Be Music” was a big sing-along favorite in the backyard, and I was hoping Tubby’s back room would be the same.

From the start, the obvious chemistry between principal songwriters Bill Lennox and Bobby Colombo is evident. They are relaxed and confident, easily displaying the folk-fused psychedelia they have become known for. These songs are made for spending time with, for learning their nuances. They are perfect tunes for a summer evening, inside or out.

About halfway through the set, they mentioned they were working on new songs and were kind enough to play a number of them for us. While new, these are still very unmistakably Bonny Doon songs. You can even hear some well-placed claps and “yeahs!” from the crowd, with people reacting like they already knew them.  A particular highlight of this section was the introduction of Anna St. Louis, to sing on “Thunder and Lightning”.  Aside from the beautiful harmonies, Anna’s inclusion highlighted the point that this show was absolutely loaded with other musicians. Anna aside, I recall seeing members of Woods, Real Estate, and Slow Fawn, among others. 

I recorded this from the usual spot with the MK22s and board feed from Tubby’s FOH engineer, Wil.  It sounds wonderful and intimate, just like ti did in the room. Enjoy!
