Hearing Things - Band Tickets

Hearing Things is an instrumental powerhouse blending groove-driven surf with cinematic jazz and noir-inflected textures. Fronted by a rotating trio of core collaborators—Matt Bauder on saxophones and guitars, JP Schlegelmilch on organ, and Vinnie Sperrazza on drums—this Brooklyn-based group has carved out a distinct, danceable sound that draws from surf, lounge, soul, and Ethiopian jazz influences. Frequent guest appearances by artists like Ava Mendoza add fresh textures to their explorations.

The band released its debut album, Here’s Hearing Things, in 2019 on Yeggs Records, anchored by the standout single Tortuga, which arrived with a video and a B-side, Hotel Prison. Since then, Hearing Things has earned national attention as a main support act for artists such as Nick Waterhouse and Will Butler (Arcade Fire), and has received strong critical coverage from outlets like New York Music Daily and Everything Is Noise. With a reputation for tight live shows and a strong work ethic, Hearing Things continues to tour nationally and perform regularly in Brooklyn venues such as Barbés.
