The group has a steady slate of gigs booked through March and has now added some late night post-shows as well. On March 3, the group’s Joel Cummins and Kris Myers will perform with their Digital Tape Machine project on a bill with Dexterous Roy and Strange Arrangement at the Majestic Theatre in Madison, Wisconsin. Two nights later, Cummins will join UM guitarist Brendan Bayliss at 7th St. Entry in Minneapolis.
