Mike Baggetta Trio, Dan Phelps @ The Royal Room Seattle

Mike Baggetta Trio, Dan Phelps @ The Royal Room Seattle

I’ll be opening for the brilliant Mike Baggetta, who is on an album release tour with an INSANE band. Check it out:

A truly one-of-a-kind trio led by guitarist MIKE BAGGETTA, featuring punk legend bassist MIKE WATT (Minutemen, Iggy Pop and the Stooges, fIREHOSE) and drummer STEPHEN HODGES (Tom Waits, Mavis Staples, David Lynch). The music they play is utterly unclassifiable. Referencing it as post-genre-improv-jazz-rock may come close, but still doesn't even begin to touch on the wild electric textures Baggetta's guitar alone brings to the table.

This performance is part of the album release tour for WALL OF FLOWERS, out March 2019, Baggetta's latest work issued on the BIG EGO record label featuring MIKE WATT & JIM KELTNER.
