See You There: Six Organs of Admittance

Monday, October 10

Six organs of admittance

If there is any doubt on the subject, fans of Ben Chasny’s group Six Organs of Admittance can rest assured that their prolific hero is in no danger of losing his muse anytime soon. In the past year alone, Chasny has written and recorded one of the year’s most critically hailed CDs, Six Organ's experimental folk opus School of the Flower (Drag City), worked in the studio and on the road with riff rockers Comets on Fire, and recently issued a recording with Japanese underground music stalwart Hiroyuki Usui under the moniker August Born. For Six Organ’s upcoming show at Soundlab, the band will focus on some of the heavier aspects of its soon-to-be-released new album while also performing the quieter material from past recordings. While that new album is scheduled for release in early 2006, there is still three months left on the calendar. Who knows, perhaps Chasny will have more to say before the year is done. For this tour, Chasny is joined by Sunburned Hand of the Man drummer John Moloney and Hush Arbors bassist Keith Woods. Hush Arbors and Bare Flames share the stage.

9pm. Soundlab, 110 Pearl St. (440-5907). $7.
