Basher is back at The Broadside for a Mardi Gras Dance Party. Basher plays highly improvisational dance music with the energy of a punk band and a free jazz spirit, propelled by two drum sets, analog synthesizers and two saxophones. Doors 7pm. Show 8pm (Mardi Gras Standard Time)Led by saxophonist and composer Byron Asher, Basher has garnered the adoration of the New Orleans creative music scene with its combination of danceable grooves, anthemic melodies, and wild clash of avant garde leaning acoustic and electronic textures. They've been playing listening rooms, dive bars, train tunnels, and arenas across the South since 2017. In 2022, they released their LP "Doubles" on Sinking City Records, which Downbeat gave 4 stars, claiming it "slaps," and Pitchfork called "unbearably beautiful." In 2024, they released their newest LP “May Day” on Sinking City Records, which WeJazz Magazine called a “euphoric release.”
