Yeah! From 15-21 September Tilburg is the place! We’ve just booked the mighty mighty mighty Sun Ra Arkestra and this really feels like a dream coming true. It’s the full Arkestra, including Marshall Allen. They will play EVERY day (except Friday) at ZXZW as our own Arkestra In Residence.

For those who don’t know: Sun Ra was one of the true innovators of contemporary music. Different artists, from Sonic Youth to Moodyman to the whole jazz scene see him as their main influence. To us he’s important because he created totally different music. Some records are totally hardcore experimental, sometimes he’s very smooth and sometimes it’s everything in between. He has been one of the true innovators of independent culture. Yeah! Yeah!
