SUNDAY, MAY 17, 2026 LAST ARK OUT (Vancouver) + Last Ark Out is a genre blending instrumental music project based in Vancouver (xʷməθkʷəy̓əm, Sḵwx̱wú7mesh, and səlilwətaɬ lands) and Montréal (Tiohtià:ke), Canada. The group's sophomore album Lift is replete with “clever melodies and just enough harmonic curveballs [to] keep the genre fresh and alive.” (Downbeat Magazine). For fans of "Weather Report, Kneebody, Return to Forever, and Snarky Puppy, [Last Ark Out] is sure to appeal.” (Textura).
++++++++++++++++ We are pleased to welcome back Tim Olive, Canadian improviser and operator of 845 Records currently residing in Kobe, Japan. He will be joined on this date by Bug Incision founder Chris Dadge, reprising their duo documented on the 2020 album Nice You. From his website: Tim Olive uses magnetic pickups and simple analog technology to investigate, invoke and amplify the inner voices of metal objects. Born in Canada (Moose Jaw), long residing in Japan (Kobe), he has collaborated extensively with Alfredo Costa-Monteiro, Anne-F Jacques, Jason Kahn, Takahiro Kawaguchi, Katsura Mouri, Takuji Naka, Kayu Nakada, Jin Sangtae, Martin Tetreault, Yan Jun and many others. His discography includes releases on Asian, European and North American labels including AAD, Bent Window, BISAD, Chocolate Monk, Coherent States, Dasa Tapes, EM Records, Falt, Grisaille, MRM, Molt Fluid, Neus-318, Notice Recordings, Pilgrim Talk, Rural Isolation Project, Spleen Coffin, Steep Gloss, Tsss Tapes, Un Poco Fria, 845 Audio and more.
++++++++++++++++ i.o and Pet Retina are back, for what is quickly and happily becoming an annual tradition. They will be bringing their unique blend of mangled, chaotic electronics and Maxwell Patterson's jaw-dropping, densely detailed drumming style, which fuses studies in Carnatic rhythms with post-rock maximalism in the tradition of Zach Hill, Brian Chippendale, and Greg Fox. Always a face-melter, never to be missed.
++++++++++++++++ The Nate Waters Trio plays a bracing version of original modern jazz, threading their lean and conversational playing approach with samples and electronics. The trio consists of the titular man himself on saxophone and said samples, Jeff Gammon on double bass, and Afo Fapojuwo at the drumset. This will be their first appearance on the Bug Incision stage, and we are excited for this. + in between-set music from DJ Curry |

BUG INCISION ARCHIVES: |
In January of 2020, we began work on the Bug Incision Archives, which rounded up all audio, video, & photo documentation, press coverage, and promotional materials relating to the Bug Incision Presents concert series, dating back to early 2006. While this archive will undoubtedly result in some new documentation being available to the general public, the main goal is for it to be accessible to its participants (the artists and documenters) for their own uses, while also providing a thorough overview of the series' activities for internal purposes. HOW TO GET INVOLVED: Bug Incision has a huge archive of materials in its possession currently, but there are holes all over the 18 year history, not to mention more and potentially better-quality iterations of existing event documentation. If you have any photos, videos, or audio recordings of Bug Incision Presents concerts, we would be very interested in getting our hands on them for inclusion in the archive. For information on how to get us these media items, as well as information on privacy, credits, and more details about the planned usage of materials, please email: bugincision@gmail.com |
