Camp Street + Sun Thief + The Sky Captains of Industry + Dalton Deschain @ The Way Station

8pm- Camp Street

Genre: 1920s & 30s Jazz

For fans of: The Boswell Sisters, The Andrews Sisters, Tommy Dorsey, Benny Goodman, Django Reinhardt

Camp Street is Brooklyn’s premier close harmony singing group, steeped in the vocal jazz traditions of the 1920s and early 1930s. Their repertoire leans heavily on cuts from the Boswell Sisters, but also various selections from the 1950s and 60s. Regardless of the song’s era, every note is faithfully representative of the swing and boogie-woogie generation.

Camp Street plays music old enough that transcriptions do not exist. For that reason, the band painstakingly transcribes much of their repertoire from period recordings. While tedious, the process produces changes and alterations to the originals - as rich, intricate, and unexpected as the original composers intended.

Their performance, though anachronistic, invokes the joy and romance of ALL eras. Camp Street pays homage to music that was the punk rock of its time - unconventional, youthful, and most significantly, rebellious.

9pm- Sun Thief

Genre: Folk Rock

For fans of: Fleet Foxes, Elliott Smith, Radiohead, Avett Brothers

The dulcet harmonies of Sun Thief have been lauded by many a listener from the far reaches of Crown Heights to the stony rows of Park Slope. Formed in the Spring of 2014, Sun Thief consists of Nathaniel Riehl (vox/guitars), Patrick Cochrane (vox/guitars), and John Matson (vox/drums). All members contribute to the band’s catalogue of original music which can be described as folky, sometimes ethereal, and always introspective. The band plans to release their first EP this fall.
