Bea Labikova & Vennie Tu - [excerpt 2]
With musicians and audience gathering together in Wenona's basement for the first time since March 2020, this was not precisely like old times, mostly because as a safety precauution we kept the room from getting too crowded and not all the peeps that could have been there were sitting in the room. But it's a start, and a reminder that there's something magical about being in a cozy space and hearing people trying out new sounds.
The last time I'd invited Bea Labikova to TCB she leaped at the chance to use it to explore new techniques, bringing an electronic rig to expand the sounds of her sax and voice. Pushing further in that direction this time around, she also brought along guitarist Vennie Tu, who added both shimmery textures and Pocket Operator-generated beats to add structure, moving from etherial drift to some sort of free jazz disco explorations.
To try and make up for the limited realtime access, I'm going to keep documenting TCB's performances on video, so you can check out the vibe on youtube:
