Momenta Art and the Outpost present
Dismantling Rock Traditions for the Holidays
Friday, December 20th at 8pm
Soldier Kane (Jonathan Kane and Dave Soldier) and Platinum Vision (Matt Mottel of Talibam’s new project) will present a concert of dismantled Americana at the neighborhood artist joint, The Outpost, in Ridegwood (Brooklyn/Queens border, on the Halsey stop of the L train).
Soldier Kane
Jonathan Kane (February, Swans, La Monte Young) and Dave Soldier ( Soldier String Quartet, John Cale, Thai Elephant Orchestra), and both of the cult punk Delta group the Kropotkins, perform a set of Uprooted Americana.
With Soldier on violin and Kane on drums and guitar, they dismantle the Blues, the Great American Songbook and R&B dance hits.
“Any self-respecting fan of downtown music could tell you that a project involving drummer Jonathan Kane and multi-instrumentalist David Soldier is bound to be both intensely eclectic and a whole lot of fun.
“Somewhere between Sonic Youth and Steve Reich is the drummer Jonathan Kane – interested in the crossroads of new music iconoclasm and experimental rock. Virtuosic.”
New York Times
“One thing about having an approach as idiosyncratic as Dave Soldier’s is that once listeners know your work at all, they realize that coming to new works with any expectations about style, form or language is fruitless.”
