As part of its New Year’s Eve festivities, Garaj Mahal is inviting individuals to submit a ‘Dream Garaj Mahal set’ to the band. The quartet will then select one of these sets to perform at its NYE show which will take place in Whistler, British Columbia (that’s Canada, kids) at The Boot. Garaj Mahal will perform two shows at the venue, on Wednesday December 31 and Thursday January 1. As for the ‘dream set’ folks may include one cover song (since GM already covers ‘Material Girl’- it appears on Live Vol. 3 it’s safe to say that the band is quite willing to play along).
Garaj Mahal, which recently released its Mondo Garaj disc will perform this evening at Larry’s in Seattle, WA.
