NYC-by-way-of-Israel guitarist Yonatan Gat performs and records as a power trio. The band’s unworldly instrumentals are unleashed live with a rare combination of energy and precision, so much so that the group’s performances have garnered a semi-legendary reputation, in particular in the DIY circuit, always welcome to artists that push the creative envelop without giving up punch. This year the band is literally taking over SXSW (list of shows here), but those who are not headed to Austin can catch them live at Webster Hall on March 11.
We asked the Gat are a few thoughts on being a nu-New Yorker and being psychedelic – or something. Read the Q&A with Yanatan Gat here.
