Paul Plagens is a proudly old-school
songwriter with a sophisticated, wise,
sometimes dark and often slyly humorous
lyrical bent. Former lead singer, songwriter
and dress wearing frontman of the band Greta
(whose tenure included a big record deal with
Mercury Records, a publishing deal with
EMI/Virgin, and two very memorable Beavis and
Butthead episodes, as well as tours with
Motorhead, X, and Catherine Wheel, among
others), Paul adds to his solidly classic
musical influences a very distinctive and
unique perspective based on a life lived
intensely, with pain and beauty equally
represented.

The Abe Lincoln Story are a "big band" from
Los Angeles. They play a style of music they
like to call "Soul Punk Swing." Think Louis
Prima fronting Booker T. playing Clash songs...

10 is the hybrid brainchild of the new global
society. 10 is interested in digital
property rights, appropriation, and new
developments in social pressures caused by
the networking of techno-savvy identities.

Random Patterns was born out of curiosity.
Its LA-based members tamper with the pop &
experimental realm using keyboards, drums,
saxophone, sampler and vocals with the goal
of making fun music out of old instruments
with a new sound. Random Patterns wants its
audience to dance as much as they want them
to think.

Lucas "Soup Greens" Gonze plays 19th century
American pop, songs rescued from the dustbin
of history like "Rough on Rats" -- an 1883
jingle for rat poison -- and "Dodworth's Five
Step" -- a waltz in 5/4 for the dance crazed
in the 1850s. Lucas promised me he'd wear a
good hat. Watch for it.

Howard Seth Cohen is the good kind of
performance artist. He won't make you think
too hard...until it's too late. Don't miss
pieces from his new show, LOUNGE SINGER. He
goes on at 9:45.
DJs Cinnamon Twist and Mighty
Eye
Cinnamon Twist has been throwing parties for quite a long time now. He has very eclectic taste, ranging from obscure 60's psychedelia to 80's synth pop and 90's ambient. Mighty Eye has been collecting Dub and Electronica since 1980, and has been DJing in the LA area for 10 years. Bella Land Bella is a multi-media artist who moves between the visual and aural realms. Painting, drawing and writing poetry since childhood, she also studied piano, wood wind, ballet and singing. The arts were her passion. A lifelong lover of music of all kinds, Bella's own musical voice and urge to express is a recent exploration. She is interested in the relationship between consciousness and sound, word and resonance especially insofar as it can enliven, heal or inspire. Also look for spoken word from Mick Farren and violin performance from Steve Fegely. |
