10pm Nate Rappole: A street musician known for his percussion project that involves the simultaneous playing of the drums and guitar. Through his travels, Nate has come to see the importance of street music as a public display of emotion and how it can be used to break down social barriers and constraints. “It’s some of the best music I’ve ever seen” TJ Huff http://www.youtube.com/watch?
11pm Sinking Ship: Sinking Ship is a 3-piece improvisation band. Bodily based out of Brooklyn but mentally somewhere half-sunk in the east river. The trio of Adam Hopkins (bass), Nathan Ellman-Bell (drums) & TJ Huff (guitars) play compositions based loosely out of early jazz standards but bent with energy.
