Burnt Sugar the Arkestra Chamber -- the band conducted by longtime Village Voice writer Greg Tate -- will perform at P.S.1 Contemporary Art Center on Tuesday, Dec. 16 at 7pm. The performance is organized in conjunction with the exhibition "NeoHooDoo: Art for a Forgotten Faith," which is on view through January 26, 2009. See Issue 109 of ...might be good for my review of the exhibition.
Burnt Sugar describes themselves as "a territory band, a neo-tribal thang, a community hang, a society music guild aspiring to the condition of all that is molten, glacial, racial, spacial, oceanic, mythic, antiphonal and telepathic." They bridge digital music making and live orchestral performance.
Guests of the P.S.1 event will receive an exclusive limited-edition print by Brooklyn-based artist Susanne Cerha.
