SLUG BEAT & PAMELA & HER SONS - LIVE AT L&SD TAPE NOW AVAILABLE DIRECT FROM @slug_zone@pamela__ahs@kiernanlaveaux@johnnyzoloft
SLUG BEAT & Pamela & her sons are proud to present an audio document of the performance they shared at @lightandsounddesign in NYC March 2025, alongside a stellar lineup of Matthew Regula & Bookworms + Alex Zhang Hungtai duo
Side A contains 38minutes of arcane material from SLUG BEAT - the psychedelic fusion ensemble brought to life here by SUG on guitar, JOHNNY ZOLOFT on drums, & KIERNAN LAVEAUX on samples/vocals/FX
Performing smash hits such as “Slug Beat”, “Pleasure Center”, “Sensory Leakage”, & “This One’s For The Lovers In the House” plus more to also be heard on their forthcoming SLUG BEAT: THE ALBUM to be released later in 2026, this performance found the trio at the height of their manifestation abilities concluding a Northeast tour, & set a new chapter towards exploring the beguiling essence of what SLUG BEAT can be 🐌🌀✨
SLUG BEAT live set also now streaming on soundcloud for any previewing & listening pleasures!!! Check out audio previews in slides
SIDE B contains Pamela & her sons closing set from the night, with their supple & entrancing dreamscapes punctuated by ever-evolving inspirations, breakbeat sciences, & cloudlike nimbostratus kinetics. More of what you’ve come to know & love from PAHS decade+ as a vagabond synthesist serenading the masses that are willing to listen. 🌤️💫😎

Slug Was Here tour slithers into Providence next week. Classic music. Fresh perspectives. Back to back DJing. Fun outside area for smoking cigarettes. Last time I played this spot a bunch of Zoomers did some sort of ritual dance, bet it’s gonna happen again.

SUG + SLUG BEAT BAND (feat. @slug_zone + @johnnyzoloft + @kiernanlaveaux ) making their debut live performance at Sweet Abyss, performing material from Sug’s album “Slug Beat” on @lizard_label LIVE & enhanced with experiential energetics, irreverent freeform ballads, & evocative realms of soft body mollusk dancing 🐌 check out Slug Beat: the album on bandcamp for a sneak peek of some music to expect, BUT remember: the unexpected is right around the corner… 🤓😉
Check them out alongside Carrie Sours & @formosa.exe + catch them on tour end of Feb in Buffalo, Providence, & NYC
Thursday! Liz Pelly is coming to Providence to talk about her book Mood Machine at Lost Bag. We’ll also have some live music *and* a local streaming server only accessible at the venue. Incredible book by an incredibly cool DIY lifer. And if you want music on the server, please send files!
Made an hour of dance tunes for Diane’s Hunting Club a couple weeks back, gonna be giving that a whirl Sunday at AS220. Would be fun if you came to hang.
Can’t wait to play the FIREHOUSE in Worcester next Saturday. Love that place, haven’t been there in years, and the bill is stacked with some of my absolute favorite jammers in Massachusetts. Going up there with deep Providence heads SS/NN, told them we’re *in the car* at 6 AM sharp so we make it on time, especially since I just know we’re gonna have to stop a couple of times on the way.
