Stick Men
Stick Men is a progressive rock trio whose lineup reads as an annotated King Crimson bibliography: bassist Tony Levin and drummer Pat Mastelotto spent decades as that band's rhythm section, and Markus Reuter trained under Robert Fripp's Guitar Craft program before building the self-designed eight-string Touch Guitar he plays today. Levin's instrument is the Chapman Stick - a bass-guitar hybrid, and the one the band takes its name from - which means the three of them collectively cover far more sonic territory than the trio format usually suggests. Since stabilizing their current lineup in 2010, the group has toured across over 90 countries and assembled a catalog spanning studio records, live documents, and improvised sessions. Their 2026 album Let's THRAK Again - the first full studio effort in a decade - arrives with Robert Fripp's explicit blessing as a tribute to King Crimson's 1995 record THRAK.
