A bit overdue but a huge thanks to our platinum sponsors for helping us make this past weekend possible! Not only by sponsoring the event but all the work Park Albany does to help folks come to our great city for these events and Live Sound Incorporated for being such professionals and making the whole day sound as amazing as it did. We’re still reeling from what a fantastic day Saturday was!

Wow! It happened, guys! Thousands of people flocked to Lark for the return of Art on Lark yesterday! We’re loving seeing...

Wow! It happened, guys! Thousands of people flocked to Lark for the return of Art on Lark yesterday! We’re loving seeing all your pictures and videos and wanna see more so make sure to tag us!

Thank you to the City of Albany and Mayor Applyrs for your help pulling this off, the ten amazing bands who rocked either side of the street all day (and the few in between!) and of course our incredible and patient vendors. Seeing all their creativity and hard work up and down the strip was inspiring.

All the vendors from yesterday are still listed on the website with links so you can follow and support further if you didn’t get the chance yesterday!

And once again a shout out to our generous sponsors! We couldn’t have done it without you!

And thanks to Mother Nature for holding it together to give us all a beautiful day! Let’s keep this energy going!!!

Otobo exists currently as a three-piece rock band from Albany, NY. Founded by songwriters Josh Thorsey and Justin Holden in 2021, Otobo was initially a nameless source to explore a new creative collaboration. The first collection of songs took shape as an ambient folk record, loose in structure and recorded primarily outside in Kinderhook, NY, sampling the wind, birds, motorcycles, planes, wolves, and oil drums. 2023’s Disco Rally sees the addition of drummer Brandon Rutski, a record that feels more grounded and grooving, though wildly adventurous in genre and style. Through these experiments and further attempts to find an intentional path forward, Otobo found their new album Inside Machines, a stylistically hyper-focused rock album. 

Inside Machines reflects the boiling point humans currently find themselves in, the multi-faceted relationship between people, technology, power, control, and an uncertain future. Inside Machines is in your face, but simultaneously meets you where you are. Though the songs reflect ongoing atrocities that are now on full display, they ask you not to forget your community, your relationship with nature, and your humanity.

Catch a sneak preview tonight at on Lark then tomorrow on the Madison stage!
