THIS SHOW IS POSTPONED
The Third Mind regrets to announce that we will need to postpone our Denver and Fort Collins shows. Jesse’s mother has gone into a hospice situation, and Jesse is flying to be by her side as soon as possible. Jesse, Dave, Victor, Michael and Mark all send their deepest apologies for not being able to share their music with you this time around. We will reschedule for as soon as we can, to be announced soon. Thank you so much for all of your support during a very difficult time for Jesse.
Please note we are working on rescheduling this date. Existing tickets will be honored to the rescheduled show. The Armory will reach out once the new date is confirmed with further information; please keep an eye on your spam folder.
“I had a crazy idea and was looking for musicians who perhaps didn’t think it was so insane”. – Dave Alvin
What began as a free-form studio experiment between Dave Alvin and Victor Krummenacher (Camper Van Beethoven, Cracker, Monks of Doom), inspired by the spontaneity of Miles Davis’ improvisational work, The Third Mind morphed into a supergroup enlisting guitarist David Immerglück (Counting Crows, John Hiatt, Monks of Doom), drummer Michael Jerome (Richard Thompson, Better Than Ezra, John Cale), and singer/songwriter Jesse Sykes (Jesse Sykes & The Sweeter Hereafter), whose mesmerizing vocal presence Alvin credits as the band’s anchor. “To me, Jesse’s vocals are the glue that holds this whole thing together,” says Alvin. “Her voice is so unique, and she sings with such intense introspection that it just sucks you in.”
LIVE – The Third Mind present their psychedelic improv performances with the addition of guitarist Mark Karan (Bob Weir’s Ratdog, Phil Lesh, Delaney Bramlett) in place of Immerglück.
Hailed as a “must-see” performance by the San Francisco Chronicle after The Third Mind’s live debut performance at Hardly Strictly Bluegrass’ 2023 festival in San Francisco’s legendary Golden Gate Park, where CBS News Bay Area proclaimed the show “a spectacular performance.” The now legendary 10-date West Coast tour that followed garnered rave reviews including Twangville who noted, “if you want to experience a set of musicians at the top of their game improvising down a psychedelic rabbit hole, go catch The Third Mind.”
