    About This Event

    SMIRK, Bedridden, and Michael Younker appear together at Union Pool. Younker is a New York City–based performer who moves between garage rock roots and open-ended, free-form structures and has treated familiar song frameworks as flexible material for improvisation at Cassette’s KARAOKE NIGHT. He has collaborated with Carlos Truly, Dhemo, Key Hutch, Miles Hewitt, Andy Nicholl, Drawl, Slow Down Sunny, and Untitled Freak, and his sets favor pacing and room awareness over fixed arrangements.
