SLUGish Ensemble

On Friday, November 3, 2017 at 8pm, Arts + Literature Laboratory presents SLUGish Ensemble, an amoeba-like musical gathering under the direction of composer Steven Lugerner. Their music utilizes traditional acoustic instruments to create layers of pocketed-grooves and melodies that blur the lines between pop, rhythm & blues, jazz improvisation and minimalism. Tickets are $10 in advance at slugish.bpt.me or $15 at the door. (Advance sales end 1 hour before the show. Tickets available at the door starting at 7:30pm.)

As a band leader, Steven Lugerner /// aka SLUGish has released multiple albums to critical acclaim - Gravitations Vol 1-3 (2016), For We Have Heard (2014) Live at the Bunker (2012) Narratives (2010) & These Are The Words (2010). In his short career, Lugerner has already worked with a heavy weight cast of artists including pianists Fred Hersch & Myra Melford, trumpeter Ralph Alessi and composer/band-leaders Allison Miller, John Hollenbeck & Jamie Baum.
