Stephen Goldberg & Friends with Slut Magic
City Hall Auditorium

Father and daughter artists, Stephen Goldberg and Emma Sky, bring new jazz together with glitter-punk. A side-by-side, multi-genre, multi-generational performance for all the weirdos from beats to punks, old to less-old. Local trumpet legend Stephen Goldberg is known throughout Vermont for his music and edgy plays. His life as a jazz musician stretches over 60 years. He’s played with Stevie Wonder, Little Richard, Chuck Berry, The Brooklyn Bridge, and even opened for Ray Charles. Goldberg continues to perform as a jazz musician and composer with his own groups. His most recent project with bassist Pat Markley, drummer Dov Schiller, and saxophonist Joe Moore is what you’ll hear on October 15th. The first EP of their work will be released on all streaming platforms this fall. Emma Sky is the daughter of Goldberg, and late folk singer Rachel Bissex. Sky’s band, Slut Magic is an angsty, sonic make-out session from Brooklyn, New York. Recent releases include gritty covers of songs by Britney Spears and Spice Girls. Over the past three years, the group—which includes Sky on vocals and violin, Shannon Zakarison on drums, Hot Boyfriend on guitar, and Marc Hall on bass—has made dream-inspired indie punk and garage pop with Laruicci Records and Rock Hand Records. Slut Magic's 2020 album, Trauma Queen was unleashed on toxic-green vinyl. Prior to COVID, the four toured throughout the UK, the southern and middle parts of the US.
