Worried that the New Times Summer of Sound: Experimental/Eclectic show is no bang for your five bucks? Then let us break it down for you:
Black Carl: White kids playing super-awesome and authentic soul/funk.
Andrew Jackson Jihad: Once before a gig at a family bookstore, lead singer Sean Bonnette nearly took the stage while wearing a Sharpie’d T-shirt that read, “Fuck you, cokehead.”
Janis Joplin Crap N Vomit: Punk rock showtunes. Awesome.
When news happens, Phoenix New Times is there —
Your support strengthens our coverage.
We’re aiming to raise $30,000 by December 31, so we can continue covering what matters most to you. If New Times matters to you, please take action and contribute today, so when news happens, our reporters can be there.
Yourchestra: A doing-shrooms-sounding ensemble that plays 1920s-style jug-band music before suddenly breaking out into psychedelic hippie dances.
And then there’s the headlining act, Estradasphere Trio, an all-over-the-map group named after (yes) Erik Estrada/”Ponch” from CHiPs. The band’s song titles include “The Trials and Tribulations of Parking on Your Front Lawn,” “Rise N’ Shine (Epic Doobie Nightmare #1),” and “Burnt Corpse.”
Save us a seat, please.
