Kyle Jarrow and Lauren Worsham's Sky-Pony Comes to Joe's Pub
Cult-hit Brooklyn band Sky-Pony is led by the husband-and-wife team of Tony nominated writer Kyle Jarrow (bookwriter of Broadway's SpongeBob SquarePants, also creator of the CW television series Valor) and Tony nominated actress-singer Lauren Worsham (Gentleman's Guide to Love and Murder). Sky-Pony have been called "indie-pop aces" (New York Times) and "a beautiful mash-up of music, choreography, costumes, projections and drama" (Village Voice).
This June, the band will hit the stage at Joe's Pub for a summery extraganza they're calling Sky-Pony's Fabulous Beach Blanket Bingo. Expect a healthy dose of lush, lyrical, theatrical indie-pop with a blast of summer sunshine -- there will be beach balls -- and a few surprise guests. Rock concert meets performance art meets burlesque, you might say. Or "tight, fierce, hilarious and out of their minds" according to The Wall Street Journal.
Date: Saturday June 30 - Doors 9, Show 9:30Location: Joe's Pub at The Public Theater, 425 Lafayette St, NYC
Tickets: $20 at https://tinyurl.com/y8a9dlw6
Sky-Pony is an art-pop band with theatrical roots. Based in Brooklyn, they've built a cult following for their lushly-orchestrated, darkly ironic songs and their shows which blur the lines between rock concert and performance art. In the past they've collaborated with circus artists, burlesque performers, monologists, even a fortune teller - as well as for creating the original theater piece The Wildness at Ars Nova in 2016 (nominated for a Lortel Award for Outstanding Musical). In 2016, the band released their debut LP Beautiful Monster on Knitting Factory Records, to strong reviews. That same year they also premiered their rock-theater hybrid piece The Wildness, presented by Ars Nova in collaboration with The Play Company. That too received strong reviews, and the show was nominated for a Lucille Lortel Award for Outstanding Musical. Alongside Worsham and Jarrow, the Sky-Pony lineup also features David Blasher (cello), Eric Day (bass), Kevin Wunderlich (guitar), Perry Silver (drums) plus Katie Lee Hill & Jessi Suzuki (backup vocals).
