SKY
HIGH
Popular and internationally known Eugene post-rock sextet This Patch of
Sky will premiere new music April 21 at Hi-Fi Music Hall. TPOS lead-guitarist
and bandleader Kit Day tells EW: “We’ll be playing three or four songs from our
new album,” featuring horns and guest vocalists.
Day says his band’s next release is slated for September on a mid-major
record label.
Post-rock — an instrumental genre popularized by bands like Explosions
in the Sky, Sigur Ros and Mogwai — is known for transposing traditional
rock instrumentation like drum kits and electric guitars onto emotive song
arrangements and structures more akin to chamber music than rock ’n’ roll.
TPOS has built a large following within the genre and, Day says, fans frequently
travel great distances to see his band play live.
Appearing with TPOS on the Hi-Fi bill is a full slate of Eugene-based
instrumental acts: Childspeak, Spectrum Lake and Gazelle(s).
The instrumental rock genre, Day says, is “picking up,” and all the bands
on the bill are sponsored by Ninkasi Brewing Company. Day says a Ninkasi
sponsorship gives bands access to the brewery’s recording studio as well
as inclusion in the brewery’s overall marketing. Gazelle(s) recently finished
recording with Ninkasi down in California.
TPOS doesn’t play locally very often, but when they do, they want to make
it special. Day says the April 21 show will be recorded for possible release as
a live album and will also be the premiere local performance with the band’s
new drummer, T.J. Martin Lokey, who pulls double duty elsewhere on the bill
drumming with Childspeak.
This Patch of Sky performs with Childspeak, Spectrum Lake and Gazelle(s)
8 pm Friday, April 21, at Hi-Fi Music Hall; $10 advance, $12 door, all-ages.
