Ben Seretan Release Party
Friday, July 26, 8pm
The Avalon Lounge
29 Church St,
Catskill, NY
Greene County musician Ben Seretan wrote his undergraduate thesis on the late experimentalist Arthur Russell, which should give you an idea of the unfettered approach he brings to his own songs and audio art. This packed local evening at the Avalon Lounge is being touted by the club as a record release party to celebrate Seretan’s new “insane Italian album,” Allora. The bill finds him joined by Boston-based experimental folk stylist Jackie West, Maui singer-songwriter Lea Thomas, and Brooklyn DJ Max Mellman.
