Five-handed arpeggio engineer and ZS guitarist Ben Greenberg has been stirring up a lot of buzz with his solo project, Hubble, especially after the religiously moving performance at the Northern Spy Festival this month (after the performance, a few kids came forward and made some life-changing decisions). Greenberg has now felt led by the spirit to take Hubble on the road and spread the good news of his forthcoming LP Hubble Drums, out November 8 on Northern Spy as part of ZS’ extremely prolific release schedule. The dates take the band to Toronto, Montreal, Burlington, and Purchase, where they’ll perform alongside the likes of Golden Retriever, Harmonizer, Memoryhouse, and more.
Hubble’s “Hubble’s Hubble” (also from the new LP and fun to write like that) will also be featured in conjunction with a new video created by Tiffany Borders of NASA, ESA, and the Hubble Heritage Team. The NASA-sanctioned video will feature cosmic imagery captured by the actual Hubble Telescope and will get you that much closer to the heavens. God bless Ben Greenberg. Bless him.
