PAT'S PUB 403 E Hastings
SATURDAY AUGUST 26
CASBAH!
presents
WOODHANDS w/ special guest GENTLEMEN REG
"Woodhands deftly combines the flinty, abstract minimalism you'd expect of artists with no capital letters in their names with a wonky organic psychedelia reminiscent of Chocolate Weasel or even Pink Floyd. Fat, phasing, acid-porn synthesizers melt effortlessly with twisted samples about sales, marketing, truth and aging on my fave cut, Honest Broker. Obviously a pianist of great skill, Werb's biggest talent lies in his ability to mould synth sounds into bubbling stabs of pure funk. Remember the dope keyboards on Stevie Wonder's Very Superstitious? If the 1970s had happened in the 23rd century, this is what it would sound like." Montreal Hour
Joining the Woodhands boys will be Three Gut recording artist Gentlemen Reg who will be singing on some new, secret collaboration tracks.
