Greetings:

It’s heavy on the acoustic in Phnom Penh on Friday, with David Zdriluk at Tacos Kokopelli, Penh Pals at Craft and the Healy Atkinson Swing 2 at Botanico, Green Leaf Motif at The Box Office/Speakeasy Theatre, The Cosys at Little Susie and Kiss Bang Bong at The Roxy.  Later on find Phil Javelle at Excelsior and The Visa Runners  at Oscar’s on the Corner.  In Kampot, early is Stu Cottom at Bundy Bar and later the debut of Cardboard Lo-Fi at 1960 Restaurant, while
Jam-Cha is at Ambar in Siem Reap.

In Phnom Penh on Saturday there’s a Japanese jazz trio at Le Point Cafe, Kiss Bang Bong at Seekers Spirits, Los Primos at Hemisphere and Intan & Friends at Aquarius.  The Khmer Blind Band are at The Deck and Dingus Khan are at Sundance, while Mayari are at Duplex and The Cosys are at Mayazon.  Srey Ka & K’n’E take it late at Oscar’s on the Corner.  In the south, Cardboard Lo-Fi are at The Bay in Kampot and Roberto Salgado is at Kep Natural.  In Siem Reap, Electric Soup are at Arin’s and Cambodian Space Project with Thyda Chea are at Star Bar.

Looking forward to Sunday in Phnom Penh, Cardboard Lo-Fi are at The Vine,
the long-running Sunday Sundowners open mic features guest host Gareth Bawden, and Dennis is at Can Can.  There is an evening of Franco-flemish Baroque at Raffles Le Royal, Skin and String are at Back Street Bar and Joe & the Jumping Jacks go late at Oscar’s on the Corner.  In Kampot, Stu Cottom is at First Bar and afternoon events in Siem Reap include Kiss Bang Bong at Angkor Golf Resort and Son Sabor Trio at New Leaf.

Geography of the Moon’s new live EP, Bootleg Lives, will be released tomorrow – and it’s Bandcamp Friday so all funds go direct to the artist.  And you can pre-order now if you wish.
