Lubber Kitchen Gig - Venediktos Templeboom w/ Destrian's Yond

The final Kitchen gig of the year. The perfect Sunday returns for one final time this year with Belgian gunslinger and 12 string virtuoso Venediktos Templeboom and local temple acolytes Destrian's Yond on support. These gigs have been a great amalgamation of the programming at the venue, with the food and vibe of the Kitchen. You can get yourself a ticket for just the music or you can do the right thing, the sensible thing and get some food as well. Venediktos Tempelboom is the alias of Gentenaar Benwa Meneers. Using the 12-string guitar as his main instrument, the self-taught musician takes fingerpicking Americana and Eastern transcendence into the Flanders fields with spiraling compositions that distill the essence of giants like John Fahey, Robbie Basho and Jack Rose and folds them into the dark drone melancholia of Funeral Folk/KRAAK stalwarts like Silvester Anfang, Helvete and Ignatz. The results are ringing meditations of awe and terror, flamboyant and grotesque yet utterly mesmerizing in their unrooted sonic imagery.
