Flier for Citay + P.G. Six + Trummors WGXC Benefit

Flier for Citay + P.G. Six + Trummors WGXC Benefit . Designed by Jess Puglisi. (Apr 11, 2012)

The Spotty Dog will host a benefit concert featuring Citay (Dead Oceans), P.G. Six (Drag City) and Trummors.

P.G. Six is one of the monikers used by Patrick Gubler, a New York singer/guitar player whose debut solo album, Parlor Tricks and Porch Favorites, was released in 2001 by the Amish label to much critical acclaim. Having released an out of print single under the same moniker in the '90s, his style developed from the lo-fi aesthetic into a sophisticated songcraft akin to Bert Jansch or John Renbourn. As a multi-instrumentalist, he worked in the group Tower Recordings, which released albums on the Siltbreeze and Audible Hiss labels. They were somewhat cult icons of the downtown New York scene during the '90s, with performances that included British folk revival styles meeting Sun Ra-inspired jamming, to all-out noise and improvisation. For his debut album, he worked with percussionist Tim Barnes, and the two created a wonder world of psychedelia and pop sensibility with the inflection of all manner of instruments performed by Gubler, including harp, flutes, and keyboards to accent his electric and acoustic guitars. Slightly Sorry arrived in 2007 on Drag City Records. Gubler kept a low profile over the next four years, playing out only sporadically, while working on another set of songs and in other project settings. In August of 2011, Drag City released P.G. Six's sophomore effort for the label, the very electric, full band effort Starry Mind.

A primarily acoustic classic rock, folk, and psychedelic-inspired outfit, Citay feature Piano Magic multi-instrumentalist Ezra Feinberg and Fucking Champs guitarist Tim Green. Begun as a studio collaboration, Citay have grown into a live ensemble that also includes members of such similarly minded stoner rock ensembles as Land and Sea, Tussle, Horn of Dagoth, and others. Citay released their debut self-titled album on Important in 2006. Little Kingdom followed on Dead Oceans in 2007.

Trummors is Anne Cunningham and David Lerner. As a vocalists and songwriter, Anne has collaborated with members of The Ladybug Transistor and Great Lakes, among others. David has played in many bands, most notably Ted Leo & The Pharmacists. As Trummors, Dave and Anne write songs featuring close harmonies set over spare, acoustic arrangements. The duo live in West Saugerties, NY where they are currently at work on their first record.
