About This Event
At the Knitting Factory Dogs on Shady Lane, Why Bonnie and Laveda form a lineup that spans open-form free music, hazy shoegaze-tinged pop, and indie dream-rock. Dogs on Shady Lane bring room-shaped, risk-oriented improvisation often heard at Cassette; Why Bonnie — Blair Howerton’s Brooklyn-based project, with the 2022 album 90 in November and Wish on the Bone scheduled for 2024 — favors cohesive, melody-forward performances, while Laveda supplies dreamy soundscapes and introspective lyrics.
