Long Play: Body/Head + Emptyset + Foodman + Salamanda

Public Records and Bang on a Can present a bill of some our favorite artists ever to walk this green earth: the iconic duo of Body/Head [guitarists Kim Gordon and Bill Nace]; the physical, envelope-pushing sounds of Britain's emptyset; and a live hardware performance by Japan’s one and only Foodman. South Korean production wizards Salamanda take over from the live show kicking off the club night in the Sound Room with a rare DJ set. This performance is part of the Long Play festival.
