Begun as a weekly residency at Brooklyn’s Manhattan Inn during the summer of 2013, Adam Schatz & Friends is an event where new music is tried for the first time, where other people’s songs are rearranged and explored, and where the family of amazing musicians Adam Schatz has come to call his close friends can gather and unleash a dynamic performance that feels inclusive to every person in the room. A counterpart to Schatz’s acclaimed bands Landlady and Father Figures and an extension of his pursuit of improvisation (both as a performer and organizer), the format of Adam Schatz & Friends is fluid and, by design, entirely different every time a show happens. In the crystal ball for May 3: the premiere of a handful of brand new Landlady songs, reinterpretations of Harry Belafonte and the Kinks, improvisations, and more....

Zula is a New York-based psych pop outfit led by cousins Henry and Nate Terepka. On their debut album, “This Hopeful,” listeners were introduced to Zula’s hypnotic and rhythmic brand of pop, which has been called “Pointillistic…with a mainspring of Minimalism” by The New York Times. Taking inspiration from ’90s UK indie-dance, krautrock and funk, they create something raw and spontaneous, yet meticulously detailed. The four-piece, featuring Noga Shefi on bass and Pablo Eluchans on drums, has built a reputation for energetic performances and constantly pushing their heavily rhythmic sound. Expect an electronic EP, in addition to Zula’s sophomore LP, before the end of 2015.

Palm is four-piece band from upstate New York. Founded as a trio in 2011, the first songs were all instrumental and focused on the interplay between Kasra Sarikhani and Eve Alpert’s thick, mechanical guitar parts against Hugo Stanley’s sparse, loose drum phrases. The band has refined its sound over the last few years with the addition of Gerasimos Livitsanos on bass, but retains a compositional focus on detail, density, and heaviness. The songs are experiments that playfully handle aspects of music you might recognize, with a palette of sound informed by punk, metal and noise as well as jazz, bossa nova, etc. Palm trashes the listeners expectations with moments of dissonance that are reigned in and precise; by comparison the pretty moments are often where the chaos is. Amid these constant and rapid changes, the band sneaks in a deeper unrelenting repetition. The contradiction makes sense.
