2017 Festival dates set

Seaprog will be happening on first weekend of June, 2017. As usual, it will kick off with a night at the Royal Room – Friday, June 2. Then we’ll have two full days of music at the Columbia City Theater, Saturday June 3 and Sunday June 4. The festival will feature the established formula of nationally and internationally known artists and local Northwest performers.

As more information, like artists and times, becomes available, it will be announced here and on Facebook. We’re looking forward to another successful event!

2017 is only months away

We realize that it’s been rather quiet on the Seaprog front for a while now, but very happily, a crucial dependency has just fallen into place that ensures that Seaprog 2017 will indeed take place. Dates and details will remain fuzzy for a bit, but rest assured that planning has begun in earnest. (Do note that we are not yet ready to field submissions from hopefuls, though.) Greatly looking forward to another magic weekend!

Artist profile: Super Z Attack Team

Super Z Attack Team started as a spin-off from the band Zhongyu, a studio-oriented project formed by multi-instrumentalist and composer Jon Davis. With the unusual instrumentation of Stick, bari sax, and drums, the trio incorporates electronics into music that straddles rock energy and the jazzy spirit of improvisation. They relish the intersection of planning and chance, always focusing on maintaining a groove, regardless of what meter they use.

Personnel:

  • James DeJoie — Woodwinds, voice, electronics
  • Randy Doak — Acoustic and electronic percussion
  • Jon Davis — Chapman Stick, electronics
