'60's-rock-revival fans might've caught on to Los Angeles's Foxygen in the past, but this time they're reloaded with lush orchestral arrangements by S-Town podcast composer Trey Pollard and Spacebomb Records founder Matthew E. White. Foxygen's live shows were already notoriously intense nostalgia spectacles, and now they're fueled by a more mature, consistent sound. This Central Park Sessions concert would be a great way to get acquainted with the park if you haven't been yet. Opening is zany Samantha Fish and 22-time MAMA winner Beth Kille.
"Follow the Leader" by Foxygen
The Central Park Sessions have been incorporated as Madison Central Park Sessions, Inc and will have a new look for 2017. The Sessions will be configured as Wednesday- Thursday pairs or clusters. Wednesday evenings will be The Sessions Select Concerts and will have a fine local band opening for a terrific touring band that will do two one hour sets. The Thursdays will be the Sessions as we have grown to love with a fine local band opening and followed by two great touring bands connected by a somewhat loose theme. The clusters will be August 2, 3; 9, 10 and 16, 17. There will also be a back to school special on Thursday, September 7. We will be partnering in this endeavor with these non-profits: Centro Hispano; The Omega School; WORT-FM; The Literacy Network; The Friends of The Stoughton Opera House; The River Alliance and The Urban League. More details to come!
