Sunday August 19th, 2018 with Dav Fot
Action Friend! Much Miscellany!

Only one feature tonight! New on Chant Records, Action Friend! After that, a grab-bag of favourites and obscurities!
Formed in 2005 in Denver, CO, this is Action Friend's 3rd release, their 1st n Chant Rec's. Action Friend are now based in LA, and original members Jeremy McLean and Paul Alexander have initiated John Schuller (Master Musicians of Bukkake, Earth, Asva, The Youngs) and Mark G. Thornton (God Of Shamisen) into the fold. ‘bon•ho•mie,’ is a genre-hopping romp, from Super-heaviness to avante-garde to downhome rock.

XOL has toured extensively with the legendary Peter Brötzmann, and members have worked with other luminaries including Derek Bailey, Cecil Taylor, Gerry Hemingway and Tiger Okoshi.
