The “experimental punk jazz trio" The Dead Kenny Gs (pictured) are coming to St. Louis to perform at 9:00 p.m. Saturday, May 26 at 2720 Cherokee.

According to their official bio, saxophonist and keyboardist Skerik, bassist/baritone saxophonist Brad Houser, and drummer and percussionist Mike Dillon are “committed to musical subversion of the highest order." The New York Times said they “pinball between styles: Afro-pop, Balkan, Klezmer, pocket funk lashed to Middle Eastern modality."

You can hear a sample track, “Black Truman (Harry The Hottentot)" in the embededded audio player below. Tickets for The Dead Kenny Gs at 2720 Cherokee are $10 at the door.
