Particle played an after-Phish show at New York’s recently relocated Cutting Room on December 30. It was one of Particle’s final shows with founding members Darren Pujalet (drums) and Eric Gould (bass), both of whom will move on from the livetronica act in 2014 to focus on their families.

Fans got a sneak peak at Particle’s new lineup when Brothers Past/BioDiesel’s Clay Parnell, the group’s new bassist, sat in on
“Metropolis.” Disco Biscuits drummer Allen Aucoin, who was in the area for the Biscuits’ multi-night run, also emerged for “Triple Threat.”

Particle’s other new addition is drummer Brandon Draper, who is best known for his work with Quixotic. The new Particle will kick off their 2014 tour with a show in Fairfield, CT on February 1.
