The musical stylings of...

PETER JOSEPH BURTT
(http://www.myspace.com/peterjosephburtt)

Peter Joseph Burtt, a lifelong percussion student spent 3 years in the Gambia, Ghana, and Zimbabwe living with traditional musicians and learning to play music with them. The ultimate lesson was to take the music, studied with respect, and to reinterpret the music he had grown up listening to: the blues, folk songs, Bob Dylan, the Clancy Brothers, Hindustani music, and 3 originals. It became clear to him during his travels to Africa is that he should be himself within the context of the music, to resist the urge to simply reproduce the music that he was learning as the Africans played it; to build bridges between the western and the African cultures by playing in a way that an American could understand. Sunken Forest features the instrumentation of a souped up Mandinka kora or harp, lush acoustic guitars, lap steel guitars, light percussion, and evocative vocals. The record plays like a river and allows listeners who are not died in the wool world music or traditional folk fans to hear the kora in an arrangement that is hopefully more accessible. As a student in the prestigious graduate writing program at San Francisco State, Peter focused on the connections between spoken word, rhythm, and music, doubling his studies with Ghanaian master drummer, Kwaku Daddy at City College. He learned about arrangement of rhythms in different times. Kwaku taught him how everything works together, things he had always suspected, like the concept that everything has a song; the ocean, the birds, the wind in the trees. It's all music and you can hear it if you know how to listen.

Next up...7:15pm - 9:15pm

The psychedelic sounds of...

THE MAGIC LEAVES
(http://www.magicleavesmusic.com)

Aquarius Records Review of 'Moody Mountain': "Magic Leaves has all the elements of things we love to listen to on Sundays. Sunny pop, soft psych-tinged harmonies, and catchy songs that get stuck in our heads for days. Reminiscent of Emitt Rhodes, Paul McCartney and Olivia Tremor Control, Magic Leaves are a more simplified lo-fi heir-apparent to the Beatlesy pop we often go nuts for, but no less charming. A very sweet debut!"
Come check these guys out!

And Finally...9:45pm - 11:30pm

Space Bacon Funktonauts...

MAYBELLE
(http://www.maybellemusic.com)

Originally from Southern Louisiana, Maybelle brings it's own distinctive fusion of improv-soul to the West Coast. Still at young ages, Maybelle consists of seasoned players from the uptown New Orleans scene. Jake, Thomas, Will and Scotty have shared the stage with many notable musicians including; Eric Lindell, George Porter Jr. (The Meters, PBS), Marc Ford (THe Black Crowes, Ben Harper), Topaz, Outformation, G-Love, Ivan Neville's Dumpstaphunk and Irvin Mayfield.

Will McMains forms the foundation of the band with bombastic druming heavily rooted in funk and jazz-fusion, his brother Jake fills out the rhythm section with exploratory and melodic electric bass guitar. Guitar player Thomas Johnson brings a dynamic and versatile approach to lead guitar playing with influences ranging from Shuggie Otis to JJ Cale to Jeff Beck. Rounding out the group is Scott LeBell on keyboards and vocals, with his impressive, soul-filled stage presence and fumky organ chops.

Newcomers to the West Coast, Maybelle intends to bring their passion for creating explosive and moving live performances to a broader audience. Always prepared to provide the soundtrack for a good time, Maybelle aims to please.

DON'T MISS THIS AWESOME EXPERIENCE. GOOD VIBES, GOOD FOOD AND GREAT MUSIC FOR FREE AS IT SHOULD BE!!!!
