DOOM DOGS, a genre-free Improvising super group with REEVES GABRELS of The Cure, JONATHAN KANE and JAIR-ROHM PARKER WELLS, will play an intimate show at Troy Savings Bank Music Hall on Jan 8th. The trio (guitar, bass, drums) inaugurate this season's Lift Series, which seats the audience on stage with the musicians for an unforgettable 90-minute concert experience in the historic upstate New York hall, built in 1875 and known for perfect acoustics.Doom Dogs is a convergence of three brilliant musical minds:
REEVES GABRELS is an electric guitar virtuoso recognized by musicians and audiences alike for his expressive range and power. A member since 2012 of iconic band The Cure, Gabrels is heard on their brand-new album Songs of a Lost World, released on Nov 1st and celebrated by a London show that live-streamed globally He is also known for his creative collaborations with David Bowie during the '80s and '90s, co-writing, co-producing and adding his imaginative guitar work to a half-dozen studio albums in addition to extensive touring. With Reeves Gabrels on lead guitar for Doom Dogs, sonic brilliance is a hallmark of the band's performances.
Drummer JONATHAN KANE, the heartbeat of Doom Dogs, was a founding member of the influential band The Swans, has worked extensively with Minimalist godfather La Monte Young, was the only drummer for Rhys Chatham's orchestra of 100 electric guitars, and leads his own trance-blues band Jonathan Kane's February. His drumming style is powerful and hypnotic, driving the band's improvisations with precision and intensity. Jonathan's vast experience as a drummer and composer contributes to the band's ability to create spontaneous and enthralling musical moments that leave audiences in awe.
Bass player JAIR-ROHM PARKER WELLS lays the foundation for Doom Dogs' mesmerizing sound. Parker Wells is a legend in the world of experimental rock and jazz. A founding member of the avant-rock band Machine Gun, he was also a member of seminal German experimental Rock band Embryo during the 1970s. His NS Design electric upright and bass guitar prowess adds richness and dynamic depth to the spontaneous compositions Doom Dogs create on stage; no two performances are alike. Jair-Rohm's artistic sensitivity and expertise make him an indispensable part of Doom Dogs' sonic exploration.
