It’s been a harrowing three months for Rubblebucket and singer Kalmia Traver. The group has been touring much of the year, and the group released their Save Charlie EP in October, but Kal was shockingly diagnosed with Stage 1 ovarian cancer in July. Traver has undergone chemotherapy, and in her interview with Seven Days, she said, “I get sick for about a week straight and then pop out of it and feel great.” The group is continuing to tour around Traver’s treatment, and her commitment to music and touring is apparent and inspiring. Traver continued, “Performing live is such a source of energy in my life, I didn’t want to put that on the back burner.”
Rubblebucket will perform Thursday September 7th at the New Parish in Oakland, so consider attending this funky, psyched-out dance show. The group has a sound and look that is all their own, embracing a neon visual aesthetic with their full brass section. Their upbeat, breezy music can’t be pigeon-held to one genre — how many acts mash the frequencies that come from horns and synths?
