Magic Beans Sprout at the Rook

Saturday, Oct. 6

Baked to damn fine goodness in the illustrious test kitchens of Colorado's jam-heavy live music scene, Magic Beans have really started bouncing up and blowing minds all over the place.

And they'll pop a buncha sprouts of jazz/funk/soul-heavy improv jam on local grounds when they return to the King's Rook Club on Saturday, Oct. 6.

Word is the last time Beans were about Erie earlier this year, they brought it on heavy, giving a crusher of a performance -- after having played until 4 a.m. at the Bedford-based Domefast the night (er, morning) before. For the past year, they've been touring the country in support of their latest full-length, Casino Cabaret, which bloomed this March. So if you fancy yourself a bean-stalker, the fellows have plenty of dates lined up from the Rockies to the Appalachians, until their New Year's Eve appearance with Pigeons Playing Ping Pong at Stage AE.

Exciting to ponder what, this time around, the flavor of Beans may be.
