Thee Silver Mt. Zion Orchestra + Cedar Cultural Center

This is probably going to be the closest thing to me ever seeing Godspeed You! Black Emperor. Efrim Menuck Had a Q&A between songs which talked of politics, bad jokes from the audience and random wonderings of the band. The SMZ’s dynamic arrangements seemed to quiet the crowd and Menucks amazing vocals could be the only thing heard at times during the performance. I would love to see these guys again soon.

Cloak Ox + Cedar Cultural Center

I was fortunate enough to shoot three nights at Cedar Cultural Center this weekend and what a great way to end, then with friends Cloak Ox. These guys have been in the recording studio working on some new material and I heard that there are some horns on the new album. They had time to set up a show with Thee Silver Mt. Zion Orchestra and played some new material.
