Speakeasy Tiger appear to have fractured for the second time this year, but here’s a throwback to the old days with Kyle Simmons fronting the group.  This was the Meadowlark show where rain destroyed much of the PA system, so most sound is in the right channel.  Constant rain also added a unique vibe of the evening, resulting in a show noteworthy enough to post despite the technical problems.

In contrast to the full-band set posted a few weeks ago, Erin Roberts of Porlolo toned the things down for Surfacing #9 at the Meadowlark by inviting long-time collaborator Roger Green on-stage for a duo show.  Erin and Roger apparently released a split album back in 2004, but I’ve yet to stumble upon or hear a copy of it.

Formed on-the-fly for a set at Surfacing #9, The New Allante! (guitar/drums duo) served up some nice improvisational textures.
