SeaweedSway Presents, on Bob Dylan's Birthday: Panic is Perfect, Dina Maccabee, Indianna Hale, & Ava Mendoza at Amnesia. 9pm. come early if you wanna join in the weekly open mic! (7-9) ... $7
PANIC IS PERFECT
Incorporating afro – pop rhythms, retro synthesized sounds with well crafted song writing and pseudo-spiritual lyrical sensibilities Panic is Perfect has created their own brand of quirky eclectic indie dance pop.
Jeremy Belzer and Mike Hoffman officially started the group as an acoustic duo while traveling in south India together in the spring of 2010. Since then the San Francisco based group has evolved into the 5-piece band it is today. They are currently working on their debut album set to be released in the fall of 2011.

DINA MACCABEE
Dina Maccabee is a violist, violinist, vocalist, and songwriter living in San Francisco. Her new album of original songs was released on October 12, 2010 in collaboration with Toby Summerfield on Antephonic Records. In addition to her work with Ramon and Jessica and Real Vocal String Quartet, she performs in many styles and many bands, from Middle Eastern Psych Rock to 60′s Brazilian Tropicalia. Through the vehicle of the Dina Maccabee "solo" project -- which to date has incorporated many of her top-favorite fellow musicians including Summerfield, drummers Eric Kuhn and Ezra Lipp, guitarists Roger Riedlbauer and Josh Tillinghast, bassists Tom Edler and Joe Lewis, and cellist Jessica Ivry -- she aims to write and perform concise, expressive new songs that resonate like those she returns to over and over again as a listener. http://www.antephonic.com/arti

INDIANNA HALE
AVA MENDOZA
Guitarist Ava Mendoza starts from old melodies already tattooed on your brain, then applies sufficient heat to peel that paint leaving you re-pinked and wondering what’s next. What’s next are original compositions, heavy, gorgeous, oddly reverby, layers that build, blister and flake away to alight indelibly on your mind. Just as Mendoza reprises those traditional tunes, you discover she’s walked you far into a lost countryside. How, or whether, to get back will be your own business.
INDIANNA HALE
While her greatest influence is a good friend Matt McCluer, Indianna’s writing style developed with notable inspiration from Hank Williams, the Staple Singers, and the Magnetic Fields. She now plays with a supporting band and takes inspiration mostly from “…Sunshine, riding bikes and the salty wind of the beach. It’s California rock, filtered through a ‘lonesome gospel pedal', with a little country swing and a splash of rain.”
“…a sweet caress of a voice that sounds like something from another era. The way she warbles a tune is beautiful and mesmerizing, a soft creation you want to crawl inside and dream the day away with,” Rich Kane, OC Weekly.
