The Brant Bjork Trio Announces US Tour; Playing Desertfest NYC, Ripplefest Texas and More
The first The Brant Bjork Trio live dates were announced when the band’s existence was revealed this past Spring, the new-ish project branching off from guitarist/vocalist Brant Bjork and drummer Ryan Güt‘s run with Stöner — which, in turn, was branched off their work together in Bjork‘s touring solo band — with desert mainstay Mario Lalli, also of Fatso Jetson and Yawning Man, on bass. Lalli‘s bonus-extra jammy Mario Lalli and the Rubber Snake Charmers outfit toured alongside Stöner last year, and of course none of these guys are strangers to each other.
Lalli shines playing bass in a three-piece, as Yawning Man‘s legacy in desert rock can attest, and Bjork and Güt are an established commodity when it comes to heavy rolling mellow groove. You can see the trio in action from the recent Burque Rock City Fest in New Mexico. In addition to Desertfest New York next month, they’ll be at Ripplefest Texas, then meet up with Hippie Death Cult on the way to the Kyuss World reunion in Palm Desert, which I’d imagine will be a trip of a thing. This is how it starts. Kyusscon.
