Thu 12/22@ 8PM
Old Home Night has become an annual tradition at the Beachland Tavern, headlined by Home & Garden, a long-running project of former Pere Ubu drummer Scott Krauss.
With roots back in into the ’80, the experimental band has had some members changes, but the core of it has always been Krauss and his fellow former Pere Ubu rhythm section member, bassist Tony Maimone. Lately, vocalist Keith Kornajcik and former Ubu members, guitarist Tom Herman and synth player Robert Wheeler, have rounded out the group. Their wailing, open-ended sound often resembles classic Ubu, pointing out just how much of that beloved band’s sound was attributable to the musicians and not just to legendary crank/face-of-the-band David “Crocus Behemoth” Thomas.
Also on the bill are the Kidney Brothers, Jack and Bob, of the long-running and still very active Numbers Band; the nick Riley All-Stars and Nicholas Deveny. Admission is $5.
