last show of the year, and my last show for the foreseeable future. tickets at link in bio.
i'm focusing on writing words that don't rhyme. i'm putting my sobriety first these days, one day at a time. and i'm looking to get back to the work i did before, using tech platforms to connect artists with audiences.
i want to go out with a night that means something to me. i'm improvising my work with lee ranaldo on guitar and hisham akira bharoocha on drums.
lee co-founded sonic youth in 1981 with thurston moore and kim gordon, after coming up in the guitar orchestras of glenn branca and rhys chatham. he’s one of the people who changed what a guitar could do. rolling stone and spin both rank him among the greatest guitarists of all time, and he’s been putting out solo records, art and poetry since the 80s. i’ve looked up to him on guitar forever.
hisham was a founding member of black dice and lightning bolt, made records with his project soft circle, drummed in the boredoms’ live band, and was musical director of 77 boadrum and 88 boadrum: dozens of drummers playing as one on the brooklyn waterfront. he’s also a painter and muralist, and he’s one of the great artists in this city.
lee came out of no wave, hisham out of the brooklyn noise scene, and me out of blog rap and post-9/11 new york. that’s three iterations, three different worlds, but it’s the same new york. there’s 40+ years of downtown between us. real new york shit.
also on the bill are three nyc bands i love, all with brown artists making guitar music:
saudi oil, raw, loud, new york punk with a sense of humor and a debut album on the way. everything i love in a band
anand wilder, from yeasayer, back with his psych-pop solo tunes off psychic lessons
and babas, with members of the kominas, 20 years of taqwacore and beyond, now making noise in nyc
friday 11/20 · 8pm · the sultan room · 21+

VEENA.NYC presents: IN IMPROVISATION, a one-night gathering of New York artists spanning experimental music, hip-hop, punk, and indie rock.
For a special improvised performance, Heems joins Sonic Youth guitarist Lee Ranaldo and Hisham Bharoocha (Soft Circle, Black Dice) on drums, bringing together three distinct corners of New York City art and music for an unrehearsed, collaborative set.
The bill brings together artists Heems admires from across New York’s independent music community: Saudi Oil, one of the city’s most exciting new bands; Anand Wilder, co-founder of Yeasayer; and BABAS, featuring longtime collaborators Sunny Ali and Karna Ray, formerly of The Kominas.
The night celebrates VEENA COMPANY’s latest vinyl releases—Heems’ A Hundred Alibis and the second pressing of the Das Racist mixtape reissues. Selections from the label’s broader catalog will also be available, including TV Girl’s The Wild, The Innocent, The TV Shuffle, Lapgan’s History, and Heems’ LAFANDAR and VEENA LP.

The first pressings of Das Racist’s seminal 2010 mixtapes Shut Up, Dude and Sit Down, Man sold out.
So I pressed more.
For the second pressings, both records are back on black vinyl.
Pre-orders are up. September 14 release. Available in North America, UK, Europe and beyond; shipping from our warehouses in North Carolina, London, and Paris.
If you missed the first pressing, this is your chance. For this run, the price points are also more affordable.
We’ve redesigned the site so it’s easier to navigate, so take a look around. And don’t forget to check out our editorial also, featuring a great conversation on The Bronx between Hot 97’s @thekidmero and NBC 4 NY’s @darlene4ny.

You can now pre-order my latest album, A Hundred Alibis EP, which has an unreleased new song entitled Krishna’s Got a Gun. Visit https://veena.ochre.store. Link in bio.
A Hundred Alibis marks a new chapter for Heems, trading the sharp edged rap of his earlier work for a more melodic, introspective sound. Across six songs, the EP blends indie rock, folk, and alternative influences with deeply personal songwriting, exploring memory, love, identity, and middle age with the wit and vulnerability that have long defined his voice. Released through VEENA COMPANY in 2025, the project represents one of Heems’ most stylistically adventurous recordings.
This limited edition pressing is housed in a full color jacket featuring original watercolor artwork and pressed on heavyweight maroon vinyl with printed center labels. Designed as both a listening experience and a collectible, it brings the album’s intimate aesthetic into a beautifully crafted physical edition.
