Elka Bong
Lo-fi music duo Elka Bong joins Columbia’s Tom Law for show in the heart of Five Points
Once upon a time, there was an experimental music duo from Chester, N.Y., called Elka Bong.
For this tour, which brings the group to Columbia’s 711 Saluda this Friday, May 26, the trio will have a performance artist, CillaVee, with them, who will be improvising movements as well as vocals. It’s an adventurous lineup and Law is happy to point out that they have no idea what they’ll be playing from night to night.
“Every show will be much different,” Law said. “We don’t have any unifying concept that we’re building on, or a unifying theme. We’re kind of antithetical to the whole idea. So you just work with things as they happen and they’re always going off in different directions, and you just don’t really have expectations, you just work with what happens.”
