Karina Rykman went from NYU to Marco Benevento's band to headlining Webster Hall under her own name, and this is the night her second album Late Checkout arrives. She cut it at Trey Anastasio's Barn and at DFA Studios, and she has promised a bigger band, guests and extra production for the hometown show. Guerilla Toss are the special guests, which pairs her improvisation with real art-punk chaos.
What to expect
A jam-leaning set built on Rykman's bass and loop-driven arrangements, with an expanded band and guest players for the release night. Guerilla Toss play a dance-punk set of their own first. The floor is standing general admission, and this is a crowd that treats long instrumental passages as the point rather than as the interlude between songs.
Good to know
- The show is sixteen and over, and everyone needs valid photo identification at the door.
- Doors open an hour before the set, and the main floor is standing general admission.
- Guerilla Toss are billed as special guests rather than a conventional opener, so the two sets are meant to connect.
- Webster Hall is on East Eleventh Street, a short walk from the Union Square and Astor Place subway stops.
- Rykman has said to expect a larger band and more production than her usual touring setup.
