Got some great background history, as well as some theoretical back and forth, with @robmadore3 and @isaacmyoung of @px3px3 . Still have yet to go see this project live, but soon! #linkinbio #px3 #musicalduo #organfunk #funkduo #electronicmusic #jazz #jazztronica #musicinterview #interviewwithmusician #livemusic #musicarticle #thepokearound

1 day ago A picture of @glass_pony_band ’s sweet late night #twiddle after show a few weekends ago, and a picture of the magnificent @elliottmpeck performing with @rgenauer this past Sunday. I won’t be able to see these two share the stage when Glass Pony opens up for @midnightnorth this Friday at @thehollowalbany , but if you can, you should! Because both of these bands will rock your world. #glasspony #glassponyband #midnightnorth #hollowbaralbany #albany #ny #upstateny #upstatenymusic #nysmusic #thepokearound #rockmusic #jambands #folkrock #psychedelicrock #livebands #jamflow #music #livemusic #musicphotography #livemusicphotography
