    About This Event

    Jo Passed, Maneka and Beck Zegans share a bill at the Knitting Factory, bringing together Canadian songwriter-producer approaches to rock and experimental pop, rhythm-forward Hip-Hop/R&B, and Brooklyn-based collaborative work. Jo Passed leans on songcraft and production; Maneka favors rhythm and vocal phrasing in near-room settings; Beck Zegans contributes a timing- and group-dynamics–focused practice familiar from Union Pool and local project networks.
