The Incredible Casuals to Play Hangar on the Hudson June 20th
Written by Staff on June 11, 2024
The Incredible Casuals (aka the Incredible Casuals; recent vid here) will play our first Troy-area show in at least a decade on Thursday, June 20, at the Hangar, co-billed with the wondrous Deke Dickerson!
You may know the Casuals as longtime New England favorites, lauded in People, Rolling Stone, etc., for their albums on Rounder, Demon, and Sonic Trout; we’re particularly known for rocking the Wellfleet Beachcomber on the cape of cod for a decade or three, but we also toured nationally and internationally for years before hanging up our spurs for a while, and now we’re back as a trio with two out of three founding members back on board, plus the legendary Steve “Woo Woo” Wood (also a longtime Casual), all looking forward to scorching your hairdos again.
In other news, the next day my brand new band, the Buttercups, a noisy duo featuring myself and longtime Casuals/Philharmonic drummist Rikki Bates (live vid here; bandcamp EP here), is hellbent on showing exactly how much is possible with only two peoples by playing a little show for free outside the River St. Beat Shop in Troy, along with the legendary Paulette Humanbeing from Oakland Ca. (renowned author of “Where’s My Horse?”), who will be making her only official northeast appearance of 2024!
So give us a mention if you can, and come on down if you’re in the neighborhood, because, y’know, it’s kind of a summer thing…
Thanks!
Fri., June 21- Deke Dickerson with the Invincible Casuals at the Hangar (675 River St., Troy, NY; 518 272-9740), 8pm.
Sat., June 22- the Buttercups with Paulette Humanbeing at the River St. Beat Shop (197 River St, Troy, NY; 518 272 0433), outdoors, 2pm. (WEATHER ALLOWING)
