Beyond excited for this month's guest on MISSIVES TO THE ETHER, Jared Ashdown @_ashdowner who is is a Kingston NY based musician who fronts the art punk ensemble Open Head @openheadltd . Their first record "What Is Success" was released by Wharf Cat Records in 2025 and his solo record of ambient compositions "Shape Unto Itself" came out the same year. Open Head is literally the most exciting band in the Hudson Valley region for a lot of reasons but for me personally, I think this is true by their refusal to stay in one lane. It doesn't really matter what discipline you are in, the only artists that interest me are the ones who are committed to evolve and I can attest from our pre-interview, Jared is an artist in that category. This is a going to be a really cool conversation and I can't wait to read his tarot.

The second free show in November features my old pal @brettnaucke stopping by for a rare upstate NY show! Brett is an electronic composer whose work sounds great in both an art museum or at a nasty ass basement show. It’s a family affair with Tubby’s own @_ashdowner ripping a set and dropping a new solo release as well! Local sound manipulator @trunkfullofmemories kicks it off.DJ duties from @djibrilanddjazz & @drewcpirainoThanks once again to the legends @livemusicsociety for making this show possible.Free tickets at 7pm day of the show
