Featuring music by Gutbucket & Zentropy

About Gutbucket -
Destroying walls between art-rock, avant-squonk, and mathed-out prog, Gutbucket's through-composed charts enter a place of pure sound. The decade-old New York quartet is not only equally comfortable playing in front of 900 sweatily pogo-ing teenage skate-punks, a crowd of cosmic indie-psych freaks, or on an anarchist German art collective houseboat, but most importantly, their music fits right in. Called “stomprovisors” by the Village Voice, the band has spent the past 10 years injecting a shot of glorious spazmitude into the minimalist cool of the New York downtown scene.

About Zentropy -
One day, a prog-geek keyboard guy, Allen Welty-Green (of Z-Axis) decided he was tired of all the prog snobs and decided to try something different. Something with no rules. Something that thread the fine line between chaos and catharsis. So he found a sympatico bassist, Jim Cotton (veteran of a thousand Eyedrum Open Improv Nights), and drummer, Davis Petterson (of dp3 and The Ghosts Project), and dove right in.
It's improv but is it jazz? It's spacey but is it jam? Decide for yourself.

• - "The story goes that the Krampus accompany St. Nikolaus and while St. Nikolaus rewards the good kids with treats and presents, the Krampus punish the bad kids by hitting them with brooms and chasing them. It is an old Austrian tradition that has spread to most of Europe. Basically, men get dresed up in hairy outfits and scary masks, run wildly around the town, and scare the living daylights out of both children and adults."
