Advance album listening · Artist talk · DJ sets by Loum + Proudfoot
(Pique-nique) International Anthem and Pique-nique invite you to a
special evening with composer, improviser, instrumentalist, and
musical folklorist **Ben LaMar Gay** to celebrate his forthcoming
album **Yowzers** — a joyfully irreverent psychedelic fantasia of
folklore, free jazz, and avant-garde blues, out June 6 on
International Anthem. On Monday, May 5th, be among the first to hear
the full album in an immersive setting at Light and Sound Design, a
private loft in Greenpoint outfitted with a vintage 4-point Klipschorn
sound system. Following the listening, Ben LaMar Gay will join us in
conversation to share insights behind the music: his process,
collaborators, and the poetic duality behind the title, “yowzers”,
as both a sigh of absurdity and a cry of amazement. DJ sets before and
after by Loum + Proudfoot (Pique-nique) will frame the night. **RSVP
does not garantee entry:** seating is very limited and first come,
first serve. Early arrival is encouraged ? Secret location in
Greenpoint will be shared in the confirmation email. Accessibility:
not wheelchair accessible (stairs only). Presented by International
Anthem & Pique-nique. This is a 21+ event.
