mooey moobau tonight/first bass accolades

gaib, live, mooey moobau, vosotros No Comments »

buenos tardes a vosotros-

•Mooey Moobau tonight!!

The third installment of the Obi Best residency at Tangier is tonight, and Mooey Moobau will be performing alongside Readers and (naturally) Obi Best.  I would describe Mooey’s music as David Byrne meets Picasso.  It’s wild! Joe is a super-talented, super-creative cat. He is also a noted speech pathologist. His most recent record, entitled “All Murmur of Our Mother’s Waters” is a sonic journey and definitely worth checking out.  Order it here!!!

And stay tuned for a mooey moobau/vosotros collab affectionately refered to as moosotros…

•First Bass!

Last October, Vosotros was hired to score a short film about a young bass player and Chicago Cubs fan, and her audition for a prestigious music school. Naturally this movie hit close to home personally (bass! Chicago!). And little did we know that the creators were submitting the short to festivals all around the U.S.A.!!! And now we’ve been nominated for an award!!

DC Shorts Film Festival- we are nominated for best song “Zoom!” register here and vote for us!!!

until then, you-all.

•Vosotros is excited to be performing live on 88.9 KXLU this Friday for their series Fridays at 5. So tune in this Friday, er, at 5…dunno what I’m gonna do yet, but it should be nifty!

•We are super excited about our positive review of the lazy susan on okayplayer! Check it out here!

•you gotta have friends! that’s what it’s all about!

my new friends, The Sweet Hurt.

led by songstress Wendy Wang, TSH is a wonderful band! Mellow & Beautiful. I played cello at their CD release party at Pehrspace this past weekend and had a blast. We also shared the bill with some slightly older friends, Colorforms! Alex Lilly is sssooo talented & awesome!

Tonight was a musical adventure, too. Went to the secret Beck warm up show at the Echo and saw the homie B.R.A.M. (aka Brandon Square) tear it up on bass…super yeah! Then we went to Spaceland and saw the homies Willoughby, which consists of Gus Seyffert, Mike Green, Charlie Wadhams, and Brandon Square. They were great.

How linked is this entry?

that’s all for now…stay tuned for juan’s super exciting blog about the future of music…

hey you-all. 

•sunday i returned from three weeks touring Israel.  words can’t even describe the experience…except that it’s crazy.  historically, politically, and geographically. made some amazing friends and got profoundly inspired.  and i spent the whole trip with vosotros family member and NY keyboard extraordinaire Sam Barsh, as well as his brother Sy.  as vosotros concert goers know, Sam graced us with his skills at the lazy susan release show in February, turning the party out.  Sam brought his famed melodica to the promised land and turned the party out there too.  video on the way.

•some music that i found myself listening to in Israel: 
GEORGIA ANNE MULDROW. I REPEAT! GEORGIA ANNE MULDROW!  she is amazing.  i mean really amazing.   her record, olesi: fragments of an earth  is out on stones throw. it’s an experience.  check her out, now.

Hamlet Gonashvili.  Hailed as the voice of Georgia (the country), he sings traditional Georgian folk music. His voice is transparent, and the music is mainly acapella, with the typical accompaniment of three supporting voices.  I can’t stop listening to him…beauty

finally, shout out to my new friend sarah, and hair braider.

yallah bye,

Fareed/Hello Mexico? i mean what’s up…/Where’s Touhy?

gaib, the lazy susan No Comments »

•I’m currently in Indianapolis blogging from the famed Amerisuites hotel…a solid hit last night with guitar wizard Fareed Haque (see six thirty) at the Jazz Kitchen, and today we hit the road again to Yellow Springs, Ohio to rock Peaches Grill…Fareed is an incredible musician and great guy, and it’s always nice to feel that midwest love even if only for a weekend.————————–> www.fareed.com
•But I won’t be in LA for very long either. Thursday I set out again with reedist Adrián Terrazas-González (The Mars Volta) and drummer Gene Coye (My Moon Boots, Masunday) for a series of shows around Mexico. Adrián’s music is seemingly melange of electric improvised music and mexican folk songs.
check him out.——————–>www.myspace.com/adrianterrazasgonzalez
•Touhy has gone the way of Saltar, and somehow been misplaced on the northside of Chicago. When I get back to Chi on Sunday, Ill check the bathroom at Irvings. stay tuned…

Tonight I am excited to play with BRAM at the Bordello (formerly Little Pedros).

And Bram Inscore leads; he’s a great songwriter/multi-instrumentalist who can be found performing with Peeping Tom, Electrocute, and other great bands around town!———-> www.myspace.com/wearebram

live@land - This Thursday! (sept 27)

gaib, live@land, podcast, the lazy susan, vosotros No Comments »

Hello You-All.
We are especially excited for this month’s Vosotros in Little Tokyo!
Performing along with The Carrot and Stick (this months Lazy Susan) will be A++ and Ing, two interesting bands with interesting names…A++ is a water bed filled with Cholula© hot sauce, and Ing is the sound of Bowie brushing his teeth before laying down on that water bed of Cholula©. And The Carrot and Stick is a soft rock band. ing has already been podcasted (check out “sixty-six”), and get ready for the A++ jam, “We Like It When Animals Fuck Up People.” And continuing the animal notary, look out for the aptly titled “Donkeys” from The Carrot and Stick!

See you there!!!!!
