SUMMARY:Mendoza Hoff Revels  with Nik Francis + Mark Cisneros @ Black Cat
DESCRIPTION:The trailblazing\, critically acclaimed Mendoza Hoff Revels will touch down in D.C. for the first time on Saturday\, Dec. 21\, for a special show at the Black Cat presented by CapitalBop. (CB can’t wait to bring Revels to D.C. for their first-ever show in the nation’s capital.) \nTickets start at $25. More info can be found at capitalbop.com/cbshows. \nOn Echolocation and in the live shows they’ve been playing over the past year-plus\, Mendoza Hoff Revels embody a quintessential fusion of punk-rock spirit and avant-garde exploration. With guitarist Ava Mendoza and bassist Devra Hoff at the helm\, this New York-based quartet’s electrifying sound locates it at the cutting edge of progressive rock\, and has made Revels the latest darlings of the improvised-music world. NPR Music’s Nate Chinen named it one of his top albums of the year\, writing: “The album isn’t a throwback\, nor an attack on someone else’s orthodoxy; Mendoza and Hoff . . . are merely chasing their vision\, with absolute unyielding conviction.” \n\nMendoza and Hoff both have a history of teaming up with world-class innovators across genres. The guitarist has collaborated with the likes of avant-garde icon John Zorn\, genre-bending guitarist Nels Cline and free-jazz luminary William Hooker. Before starting Revels\, her best-known solo project had been her experimental rock band\, Unnatural Ways.
