Joshua Redman, Lyrics Born, and More: A Night of Improved Round Robin Duets

Red Bull Music Academy Radio is celebrating a full-on decade of broadcasting with a fairly overwhelming spate of events around the city this week. But this imaginative format caught our eye most of all, not to mention a lineup that reads like a who's-who in East Bay music: Berkeley jazz saxophone great Joshua Redman, hip-hop veterans Lyrics Born and Gift of Gab, Tommy Capell of the livetronica group Beats Antique, violinist Jenny Scheinman, and more than a dozen others will take turns riffing off each other for five-minute improvisations, all in duos. Talk about your genre-blending. If you have musical ADD (and who doesn't?) this is the place to be.

  • clipping at Brava Theater Sept. 11
    Sub Pop recording artists 'clipping.' brought their brand of noise-driven experimental hip hop to the closing night of 2016's San Francisco Electronic Music Fest this past Sunday. The packed Brava Theater hosted an initially seated crowd that ended the night jumping and dancing against the front of the stage. The trio performed a set focused on their recently released Sci-Fi Horror concept album, 'Splendor & Misery', then delved into their dancier and more aggressive back catalogue, and recent single 'Wriggle'. Opening performances included local experimental electronic duo 'Tujurikkuja' and computer music artist 'Madalyn Merkey.'"
