Bush Tetras with Crazy Déjà Vu

About This Event

Widely influential underground post-punk legends Bush Tetras, a crucial part of the New York No Wave scene of the ’70s and ’80s, make a once-in-a-lifetime appearance at SPACE. The Bush Tetras have made punk music for over four decades. Flashes of reggae, bursts of noise, guitars that rattle, shake and snake, born out of a gutter behind CBGBs. The band’s first iteration lasted just a few years, from 1979 through the early ‘80s. But they respawned time and time again, contorting their sound, tweaking the vision, remaining completely singular and indispensable along the way. In the late 2010s the group—Pat Place, Cynthia Sley, and Dee Pop—reformed again, releasing an EP, Take the Fall, in 2018. It was their first offering of new music in over a decade. A few years later in, 2021, they released a career-spanning box set called Rhythm and Paranoia. They Live in My Head was the band’s third full-length record since their formation in 1979, released in 2022 produced by Sonic Youth’s Steve Shelley, who also played drums with Bush Tetras. This fall, they will be playing with Felice Rosser (Faith) on bass and Clem Waldmann (Ui) on drums.
