As a member of Baltimore's eccentric artist collective Wham City, Ed Schrader is a pretty productive guy. He's a critic, comedian, and talk show host, and tonight his band, Ed Schrader's Music Beat, will be stopping in Buffalo in the midst of an East Coast tour.
Music Beat is a simple and stripped down project, with Schrader typically just chanting and hammering away at a floor tom. The result is Beat Happening-esque basement pop with a touch of Bowie bravado. And the recent addition of accompanist Devlin Rice on bass guitar lends the group a thicker, Young Widows/Shellac noise-punk edge.
Tonight's show will also feature Buffalo's 5-piece answer to Dan Deacon, Wooden Waves, along with some pleasantly deranged and glitchy synth-pop from UVB-76 and Kid On Purpose. $6. Soundlab. 8pm.
