If there are any constants in the musical universe, surely one of them is the Three Lobed / WXDU day show (dubbed the “Annual Ritual of Summoning” during the last few go-rounds) at Kings during the Hopscotch Music Festival. So abundant are this show’s riches that you almost have to remind yourself that, no, it’s not common for one five-hour span to feature insane one-off collaborations, unusual guest appearances, new act debuts, avant-garde soundscapes and visceral fucking noise.
This year’s day show checked a couple of those boxes right away, as the Omaha musician David Nance and his current touring trio teamed up with Tyler Damon (currently of Circuit des Yeux among many projects) to flay us with dual-drummer versions of “Amethyst” and “Prophet’s Profit” from Nance’s 2018 record Peaced and Slightly Pulverized, which introduced the prolific Nance to perhaps his widest audience yet. Suffice it to say he’s taking full advantage with his performances, as Nance takes the best of classic rock n’ roll and supercharges it with the intensity of these times. From the energy onstage, you wouldn’t know that not only had Nance played a late show the night before, but that it was only noon in Raleigh, North Carolina. By the last note of “Prophet’s Profit” the tone for the day had been set. Check back at this site to see more of what this annual jam had to offer.
I recorded this set with Schoeps MK5 mics onstage, a soundboard feed, and MBHO microphones into the warm n’ fuzzy Aerco preamp back at the soundboard. The sound quality is excellent. Enjoy!
