BCR (Black Crack Revue)

BCR, the Afro-Nuclear Wavabilly Funk Swing Reggae Turska band, is back on Earth from their 40th anniversary tour of the Outer Worlds. From live gigs with the Kronos Quartet to the delighted ears of Dementians tuning in to the Dr. Demento Show, the unfazeable BCR never sleeps.

Through appearances on stage with media-Medusoids like Sun Ra, Ronald Shannon Jackson or Wavy Gravy, satellite uplinks with Don Cherry and Alvin Curran, or stints with Ziggy Marley’s band, BCR has remained true to their roots in swirling black holes, time-travel, and the endless dance of cosmo-love.
