Garcia Peoples with Mike Bones at the Bur Oak in Madison on October 17, 2021

In October 2021, Garcia Peoples came to the Bur Oak in Madison to perform with Weak Signal opening. For their final piece they invited the legendary guitarist of Weak Signal, Mike Bones, on the stage for a 20-minute jam. It's a really excellent thundering performance that I have enjoyed listening to many times since.

Unfortunately, onstage equipment issues on prompted a member of the band to request that the rest of my recording of the GP's performance be withheld from circulation, so this is what we have to enjoy.

Weak Signal at the Bur Oak in Madison on October 17, 2021

Weak Signal is a trio consisting from New York consisting of guitarist Mike Bones, bassist and violinist Sasha Vine, and drummer Tran Huynh. Their songs combine the grittiness of American punk and porto-punk (think Iggy Pop and Lou Reed) along with lyrics elements with a gothic, sometimes surreal atmosphere. They came to Madison in October 2021 as part of a tour with Garcia Peoples to perform at the Bur Oak.
