Tonight, one of the best improvisational and inventive keyboard players in the music industry right now will be stopping by Nietzsches for an amazing show. You may know Marco Benevento from his work with the Benevento/Russo Duo, Garage e Trois or GRAB (a jamband super group featuring Trey Anastasio and Mike Gordon of Phish). He has been making records and touring for the past several years, building a great reputation in the jam band and jazz community. He tours with many different bands and musicians but tonights show features Dave Dreiwitz from WEEN and Andy Borger of the Tom Waits/ Norah Jones band. I personally have seen him perform live several times and I am so excited to see him in such an intimate venue. He performs a combination of original songs, as well as inventive covers from bands from everywhere from The Knife to My Morning Jacket to Thelonious Monk.
This tour is in support of his newly released 7-inch Single titled Escape Horse and Fireworks. If you are fortunate enough to be able to attend tonight's show then you are in for an impressive display of music talent to say the least. Admission is $15, Doors at 8 pm, show starts at 9 pm. Supporting Marco Benevento tonight is local funk band Logo City and the MK Groove Trio from Brooklyn. I'm getting chills right now just listening to the tracks I posted below, its going to be truly great. I hope you can make it!
Don't miss this --- Marco's trio is some of the best shit out there right now!!!
