Tonight: Sonya Cotton, Honeycomb, and Ever Isles @ the Rickshaw Stop! SeaweedSway Valentine's Day w/ Honeycomb, Chloe Makes Music, & Magic Leaves!

Hi! This is an update of a bunch of good shows coming up (see list below), and a reminder about
Tonight!!
Tuesday January 25th
SeaweedSway Presents:
SONYA COTTON
HONEYCOMB
EVER ISLES
~at the Rickshaw Stop~

This is a very special show, and it's an honor for SeaweedSway to present it. Sonya Cotton, Honeycomb, and Ever Isles' music in combination will be profound. Sonya's music, through beautifully woven harmonies, brings appreciation for who and what we have in our lives now, and evokes the memories and remembrance of those we have lost. Honeycomb and Ever Isles sounds are soothing, grooving, soulful, and incredible. You're in for a treat with this one.

Some special additions to the show: We will be selling hand-harvested seaweed and if you still need a calendar/planner for 2011, great! You can buy one at the show! The SF Poor Bastard's Almanac and Weekly Organizer will be available for $8 ($7 if you buy something from the bands too). It has all sorts of neat locally relevant info - free museum days, open mics, meteor showers, fair trade coffee shops, last BART times, moon phases, pesticide levels of common produce, which anti-gay companies to boycott, supervisor's contact info, ukulele and guitar fretboard and chords, MUNI OWL map, etc. We are likely going to offer mini acupressure sessions for people between sets as well.


Address: 155 Fell St. @ Van Ness (near Market St.)
Time: 8pm

Really hope to see you tonight!! Please read on to see the full list of recommended shows. ~jessie

Where: The Tower 3435 cesar chavez (between mission and valencia) through the gate!
Description: Kath Bloom is an American singer-songwriter based in Connecticut. Kath is some kind of legend. She comes from a special place where country, blues and folk are made beautifully translucent and emotive. She has a special gift - her almost supernaturally beautiful, wavering soprano is one that has to be heard, with a clear transparent moonlight quality that silences a room. Her songs will burn a hole straight to your soul. Her music has been featured in Richard Linklater’s film Before Sunrise and was honored on a tribute album featuring Devendra Banhart, Bill Callahan, and Mark Kozelek. In 2010, her album Thin Thin Line was released on Mark Kozelek’s label Caldo Verde Records. Since it’s release, Kath has toured all over the US and Europe including a performance at the End of the Road Festival in England.

“Bloom sounds like a woman who has spent years in the wilderness... An earthy, unpretentious presence, she can snap a heart like a twig” -Pitchfork

“One of the most beautiful singers ever. Heartbreaking.” -Devendra Banhart

Devastating songwriting.” -NPR

ALAMEDA
Alameda is a five pieceband composed of guitar, violin, cello, clarinet, and drums w/ members of Ages and Ages, Crooked Fingers, and the Portland Symphony.
http://myspace.com/alamedaportland

PANCAKE BREAKFAST / MIKE MIDLO
Pancake Breakfast is a nine-member roots machine from Portland, Oregon. Most of these songs were made-up on a little farm, far away from the big city. Mike Midlo wrote them. He tested each one by singing it to the dog and chickens before playing it for the band. That seemed to work out pretty well. The members of Pancake Breakfast like to have a good time. You can hear that on their debut full-length record. Sometimes they holler and make loud noises. You can hear that on the record, too! All the tracks were recorded by Mike Coykendall (She and Him, Blitzen Trapper, M. Ward) in a comfy house near a dormant volcano.

WEDNESDAY: Buxter Hoot'n, Mark Matos and Os Beaches, and Magic Leaves! SUNDAY: Sea of Bees' Chasing the Moon + SeaweedSway w/ Kelly McFarling, Sandy's, and Backlit! WED 1/19: Conspiracy of Venus @ Cafe du Nord!!

hello and happy 1-11-11! any big new years resolutions/intentions?? 
...this week & next, please save the dates & save your dates for so many good shows...

Wednesday, SeaweedSway presents Buxter Hoot’n, Mark Matos & Os Beaches, & Magic Leaves @ Bottom of the Hill! (a mix of psychadelic-folk-rock-americana) I’m excited for this one - it’s gonna be more rocking than some of the other shows SeaweedSway has presented, at a venue with a rocking history - have seen some of my favorite all-time shows there... and I know this will be another! Good way to celebrate the middle of the week (really) - only $8 for a fun night - bring friends and/or make new ones!!

Sunday is the SeaweedSway Showcase! Live music from Kelly McFarling, Sandy’s,& Backlit + Sea of Bees’ Chasing the Moon episode premier! Jeremy Dalmas & the Absurdists will be hosting & re-enacting old game shows between sets. Sandy’s is Alexi Glickman of the Botticellis & Little Wings, joined by Steve Taylor on keys & Jeremy Black of Apollo Sunshine on drums. Backlit is a project of Deborah Steinberg from Conspiracy of Venus. We are celebrating the Full Wolf Moon (or Full Old Moon), which actually falls on Wednesday of next week (we’re early). only $7. 7:30-11 so you can get to bed in time to sleep in time to get up for work on Monday - but wait! Many people have Martin Luther King Jr. Day off, so even more reason to come and hear good music and stay out a little later. See you there!

Next Wednesday, on the night of the actual Full Wolf Moon, Conspiracy of Venus will be singing our hearts out at Cafe du Nord, co-headlining with neo-soul-jazz supergroup The Congress. Opening will be jazz singer Mindi Hadan, sharing her unique blend of R & B influenced, country flavored, jazz standards. Conspiracy of Venus is an alt-choir I’m in - we sing the songs of Tom Waits, Joni Mitchell, Leonard Cohen, Bill Withers, Juan Tizol/Duke Ellington, Joyce McBride (our director), & more. Tickets are $10 & we encourage early purchasing at http://cafedunord.com This will be our last SF show singing a full set until the Spring.

Speaking of dates, & saving them, if you still need a calendar for 2011, I still recommend the Poor SF Bastard's Almanac & Weekly Organizer! it has all sorts of neat locally relevant info - free museum days, open mics, last BART times, moon phases, pesticide levels of common produce, which anti-gay companies to boycott, supervisor's contact info, ukulele & guitar fretboard & chords, MUNI OWL map, etc. email Stephen at SFresourceGuide@gmail.com to buy them direct (& pay less - only $8) or pick one up at dog-eared books, Needles Ã…nd Pens, or other local bookstores.

Thanks for reading & hope to see you Wednesday, Thursday, Saturday, Sunday, & next Wednesday! :) SERIOUSLY! (It's the New Year's SeaweedSway Challenge.) If you're out of town, please still check out the links & listen to some good SF music, and as always, feel free to pass this message along.

The Congress
Marcus Cohen founded this project in summer of 2009 when he first met guitarist Vic Wong, drummer Jayme Arredondo, and bassist Mark Allen Piccolo. They then began to lay the foundation for what is now known as The Congress- a mesmerizing 12 piece ensemble of musicians, vocalists,a spoken word artist, and an emcee. The idea was inspired from Marcus' love for "soul, jazz, funk, hip hop, and gospel."
www.the-congress.com

Conspiracy of Venus
Conspiracy of Venus (CoV) is a women's community a cappella group based in San Francisco. Under the artistic direction of Joyce Todd McBride, the 40 women of CoV interpret McBride's daring and inventive arrangements of
songs ranging from the classic (Joni Mitchell's Big Yellow Taxi) to the cutting edge (Bjork's Possibly Maybe) with dazzling technical verve and tons of personality. The group's repertoire also includes works by Bill Withers, Rufus Wainwright, Tom Waits, Leonard Cohen, and Roger Miller.


Conspiracy of Venus has played to sold out crowds at many San Francisco venues, including The Great American Music Hall, The Palace of Fine Arts, The Independent, The Swedish American Hall, The Rickshaw Stop, The Make-Out Room, and others, sharing bills with the Mother Hips, Or, the Whale, John Vanderslice, The Mountain Goats, Blame Sally, Emily Jane White, and Rupa and the April Fishes, to name a few. The choir is active in community service. They have performed at Dublin State Correctional Facility and played benefits for the Awamaki Peruvian Women's Weaving Collective, The Gulabi Gang, The Ursa Freedom project, In Search of Good
Food, and the Fairmount Elementary FestiVal. Wherever the group performs, Conspiracy of Venus is hailed by audiences as a groundbreaking musical experience.

Mindi Hadan
MINDI HADAN, a rising star on the San Francisco music scene, has been playing to Standing Room Only audiences at the popular nightclub, "Jazz At Pearl's" with her unique blend of R & B influenced, country
flavored, jazz standards.


Born in Nebraska and raised in Texas, Mindi had a true musical education from the Heartland. The youngest of eight children, Mindi grew up singing in the church choir. She spent every Sunday night watching Lawrence Welk, which lead to forming an Acapella four part harmony singing group with her sisters. During these formative years, Mindi's mother introduced her to Big Band music, Polkas and Yodeling.

A turning point of "living in the sticks" was when Mindi discovered the discount cassette bin at the local gas station with $1.99 collections of Patsy Cline, Connie Francis, Judy Garland, and surprisingly, Marilyn Monroe. This eclectic treasure chest was the beginning of Mindi's musical alchemy of combining styles and bringing new interpretations to vintage classics.
