A collective of sonic pioneers, defying convention and transcending boundaries with their esoteric blend of cosmic blues, psychedelic noise and free jazz at Ramsgate Music Hall!
Doors Open: 7:30 PM
Following his initial explorations as Jonny Halifax and The Howling Truth, the multi-instrumentalist unearthed his latest chapter back in 2024, The Jonny Halifax Invocation. Whilst bringing other musicians along the way (including Duke Garwood and Rick Jensen), the collaborative element of the project has added layer upon layer to the cosmic blues odyssey that is essentially tailor-made for the outsider.
Just by looking at the artwork of Acid Blüüs Räägs : Vol. 1 will tell you a story, as Halifax finds himself immersed in the sun-cracked desert blues; an array of humid drones and scorching twangs forming an apocalyptic backdrop that hits all the right emotional frequencies.
At the beginning of 2024, the collective followed it up with …Vol. 2, and whilst enveloped in moody, meditative raga blues that possesses slightly darker undercurrents, this subtle shift showcases the ensemble’s constant evolution in personnel. A commune of musical voices based on shifting sands.
Pure, scuzzed-out garage psych, and while on one hand it’s surprising, on the other it underlines what this project is all about. Always moving, always transcendental. The mission: to guide the listener through portals both leading to the past, the present, and the future.
