Part Time and Gary WILSON PLAY 529 ON JULY 23 W/ Improvement Movement
PART TIME
Over a decade old with a discography reaching double figures across
several different labels (Loglady, Mexican Summer, Buger, Lollipop,
Plastic Response, Mother of Pearl, Sweaters & Pearls, Voice Academy,
Sixteen Tambourines, Fuzz City, Volar, Volcom) David Loca’s work
under the Part Time moniker really shouldn’t require any
introduction. Nonetheless, David Loca crafted a lo-fi bedroom-recorded
sound that is equal parts psychedelic pop, soft rock and primitive
synth pop. He has cranked out many records. Mexican Summers’ What
Would You Say, Burger Records’ Double-LP Virgo’s Maze, Mother of
Pearls ‘Return to Cherry’ and the Lollipop/Plastic Response
co-release Double-LP H.F.M. are definite must listen highlights.
Joined on stage by a full band, and using them on his first studio
album of newly written songs, old songs, and some written on the spot,
-- and Ariel Pink on one track – polished up the wobbly ‘80s psych
pop and soft rock sound without losing any of its inherent oddness.
Spell #6 was released in late 2018 by Burger.

GARY WILSON is an internationally renowned experimental music
composer, recording artist, and performer. As a teenager, Wilson
studied composition privately with John Cage, and since his 1977 self-
released classic You Think You Really Know Me, he has spent a lifetime
building a fervent underground audience around the world. Esteemed
artists Beck, Tyler the Creator, Ariel Pink, Questlove, Earl
Sweatshirt, Peanut Butter Wolf, Foxygen, and Dam Funk have all cited
Gary Wilson as a source of inspiration. He is the subject of the 2005
documentary, You Think You Really Know Me: The Gary Wilson Story, and
is mentioned by name in Beck’s 1996 classic “Where It’s At”.
In the summer of 2013, the Metropolitan Museum of Art included Gary in
the exhibition PUNK: Chaos to Couture, and the underground legend has
graced the pages of The New York Times, The New Yorker, and Record
Collector Magazine. Wilson’s music has been featured in an episode
of Narcos (2015) as well as during the Golden Globes (2017), and his
track “You Were Too Good to Be True” appears as a sample on Earl
Sweatshirt’s track “Grief”” (2015). In recent years, Wilson
has shared the bill at live performances with Todd Rundgren, Ariel
Pink, Foxygen, Colin Caulfield (Diiv), Crush, and Black Lips.
Gary Wilson has performed on national TV on both The Tonight Show with
Jimmy Fallon and Jimmy Kimmel Live! He continues to diligently
compose, record, and release new music, including 2019’s The King of
Endicott (Cleopatra Records) and his summer 2019 collaborative album
with home recording legend R. Stevie Moore, titled Fake News Trending
(O Genesis, Burger Records).
