Description
After a decade of visionary innovation in the 90s as part of the NYC “free folk” collective that was Tower Recordings and another decade of refinement to their individual sounds, Matt Valentine (as half of MV & EE with Erika Elder) and Pat Gubler (P.G. Six) will have a reunion of sorts, sharing the bill on August 18th. Since the demise of Tower, Valentine and Elder have approached folk and psychedelia with a maximalist, “more-is-more” glee, playing effects-soaked ragas and coloring the fabric of their unique brand of Americana in the most unlikely tie-dyed hues with nods to Neil Young, the Grateful Dead and Sun Ra at their free-ranging bests. By contrast, Pat Gubler who plays under the name P.G. Six, whether solo or with band in tow, has followed a more introspective path, one first charted by the troubadours of Britain’s 1960s folk revival, while maintaining his identity from Tower days as an explorer of rare and delicate atmospheres.
