Bodies Electric: — William Anderson, John Chang, Adam Negrin, Kyle Miller - electric guitars

My Guitar Wants To Kill Your Mama: — Bruce Arnold, Greg Baker, Jane Getter, @genenoizepunkpritsker - electric guitars

The event takes its name from the historic St. Mark's Place venue The Electric Circus (1967-1971). Experimental bands such as The Velvet Underground, jam bands such as The Grateful Dead, soul acts such as Ike & Tina Turner, and avant-garde composers such as minimalists Terry Riley, Steve Reich, and Philip Glass, and electronic music pioneer Morton Subotnick, played at the club.

Other bands played there before they were famous, such as Deep Purple, The Allman Brothers Band, and Sly & the Family Stone. The site was also the venue for Andy Warhol's infamous "Exploding Plastic Inevitable."

Chamber music by Village composers
September 23 @ 7:30 pm
The celebrated @horszowski_trio presents music from composers who have lived in and around Greenwich Village over the past six decades.

The Horszowski Trio (Jesse Mills, Ole Akahoshi and Rieko Aizawa) has been described as "eloquent and enthralling" by the Boston Globe and heralded as "the most compelling group to come on the scene" (The New Yorker). The Trio made its London debut in 2019 at a sold-out concert at Wigmore Hall, and has toured throughout America, Europe and the Far East.
