Space Walk + Deth Perception @ Temescal Arts Center

Incendiary sounds at Oakland's Temescal Arts Center, featuring only the second performance by all-star free jazz agglomeration Space Walk and a new project (Deth Perception) helmed by guitarist/composer Alex Cohen. Karl Evangelista may arrange themes from Rocky for the occasion.

Theo Padouvas, trumpet

Assembled from the raw materials contemporary jazz, free improvisation, and third world dance music, Karl Evangelista's Space Walk features a muderers' row of Bay Area experimentalists, including members of art rock trio Grex, Evangelista's garage jazz Song & Dance trio, and local saxophone legend Lewis Jordan. This new ensemble seeks to amalgamate bold, danceable structures with heavy abstraction and vocalistic mayhem--and when the tether comes unraveled, the band will be (as guitarist Sonny Sharrock famously described it) "walking in space."
