Guthrie Bell Productions Presents: Oobleck & Black Mountain Symphony
Two of the Capital Districts best bands join together for a night of Funk and Progressive Folk Rock
Oobleck is a high-octane, five-piece funk band that’s been playing around the Capital Region, Hudson Valley, and Vermont’s Burlington area since 2008. They play grungy original horn funk inspired by New Orleans street music. It’s a melee of horns, super heavy drums and bass, and your favorite type of chunky guitar riffing that leaves your bum shaking and your face grinning.
“Sometimes they pump out the stone-cold soul-funk of the JBs. Sometimes they veer into the Afro-funk of Fela Kuti. And sometimes…they head off into Frank Zappa’s Grand Wazoo territory.”
Black Mountain Symphony is a six-piece progressive folk band from the hill country outside Albany, New York. Multi-instrumentalists, singers and songwriters all, BMS has toured their original compositions throughout New York State, around the Northeast, and across the US, performing alongside acts ranging from Rusted Root to the Young Dubliners to Days of the New. Their live sets showcase a limitless range of influences, blending genres to create a unique emotional experience with every show. “No one’s out there like Black Mountain Symphony…the champagne of eclectic music” – Stephanie Fisher, New Voice, NY TalkRadio.net
