Hey everyone,
So, tonight's the big night of Jeremy Rourke's cd release, birthday party, and stencil art showing at the Li Po Lounge in Chinatown. There's a lot going on in SF the night before Halloween, but this show is one to prioritize if possible. It will start early, doors at 8:30pm, and Karl Young starts playing the Shakuhachi (Japanese flute) at 8:45. I'm singing a few songs (for the first time in front of people!) from 9-9:15, then Toshio Hirano (amazing Japanese yodeler) will play right after. Next comes Jeremy Rourke (w/ band!), then Vanessa VerLee (organizer of the show, amazing yogini & musician), then Michael Musika (spooky!), then Jeremy again for a final set. the show will go til midnight or later, so even if you can't come early, stop by at any point to celebrate birthdays, new albums, art, friday, and halloween. There will be good music happening whenever you arrive. And just finished, hand-stamped & stenciled, cds to purchase. We hope you can make it. Wear a costume if you wish, and bring your wishes if you have them.

MICHAEL MUSIKA
"Michael’s sound is rustic, almost gypsy-like, but it maintains a sense of innocence that is unlike most everything you’ve heard before. His fellow bandmates, mostly friends who play in other projects as well (Matt Adams of Blank Tapes, Eric Kuhn of Silian Rail and Brian Gorman of Tartufi to name a few), helped shape the sound of the album. One senses from their involvement that Musika’s really trying to promote that music, both performing and consuming, is meant to be fun and communal, something to bring us together as performers and spectators. While writing the music for his new album, Musika handed each performer a script with an assigned character, from which each was to figure out the particular sound for their part." -- Bay Bridged

LOYD FAMILY PLAYERS
With influences ranging from Carlinhos Brown to Rage Against the Machine, the Loyds mix together a bevy of breaks and textures with great precision for a hot and furious dance party. Utilizing everything from sultry R&B covers to tongue-in-cheek punk rock singalongs, the Loyds will whip the dance floor into a frenzy and turn you into a dashboard drummer for days on end."Combining elements of samba, hip-hop, funk, heavy metal, dancehall & reggae, this 8 to 14 piece non-traditional bateria has quickly earned a reputation as one of Oakland California's most raucous and jubilant party bands." --SF Bay Guardian.

QUINN DEVEAUX & THE BLUE BEAT REVIEW
Quinn DeVeaux and The Blue Beat Review is the dance floor between the sweet old times and new hard times. It's New Orleans soul and early blues with the depth of cracked hands combined with the contagious dance rhythm you've been looking for all night.

INDIANNA HALE
"Sad true stories sung sweet and straight forward...a prodigious musical vocabulary veiled ever so slightly by a reverent fascination for ancient astrological superstitions rendered delicately surreal through the spooky lens of modern times."
