The Curhachestra: Groove-based instrumental music with Curtis Hasselbring (tbn/guitar), Raphael McGregor (lap steel), Adam Minkoff (bass) and Dan Rieser (drums)

CLAK! : Brooklyn based band that is all about the intersection of songs, and improvisation. Clak is also an onomatopoeia. Think high heels, tapping fingernails, the satisfying sound an idol of victory makes when you present said object to a detractor with a confident 'clak' on the surface in front of them. etc.
