“"...from the silence of unpitched air and soundless bowing…plateaued at a
kind of song by avant-garde whales and climaxed in a wall of sound."” -

A fusion of NYC and European musicians, SKAKK ROCKET melds new music oddities with jazz compulsion and improvisational beautification. Tonight we'll be presenting two differing sets: the first will be SKAKK ROCKET alone, and then we're going to have some special guests join us for a second set of unique and demented music. We suggest that you treat the hallway leading to the backroom of Monkeytown as an airlock to our imaginary tendencies, and come join us for a fun filled evening of musical exploration.
