Best. Name. Ever.
Even if i find these guys, at times, a little too "experimental" (its funny how that adjective can apply to anyone from Jack White and his projects to Shpongle's insane blend of african tribal rhythms, double-bass and jazz flute) they are always good for a mind-warping show that demands hallucinogenic substances, sort of like the flaming lips meets that time we did mushrooms and watched Dark Side of Oz. Or something like that.
Anyway, Simon Posford (AKA Hallucinogen - see, toldja) and his flautist partner in crime Raja Ram will return to Canada on their Masquerade tour for a gig in Vancouver (Shpongcouver?) on September 30. Pre-sale tix are on sale now, if your interested. I got to see these guys at Ottawa Bluesfest last summer and it was a real experience, to say the least. Yknow how sometimes people say you have to see something to believe it? Check it out: Shpongle is one of those things. Definitely worth the price of admission.
