Événement

ArtemesiaBlack/Kenny Schick & Hang Jones

ARTEMESIABLACK - ArtemesiaBlack is a theatrical music duo juxtaposing sweet melodies with the seemingly sinister theme of ghosts, calling the genre alternative gothic swamp lullabies. Laying gentle breathtaking vocals and harmonies over masterly guitar work to create a soft yet commanding sound that is captivating, mesmerizing and heartfelt. Think Iron and Wine, Gillian Welch and Nick Drake. www.myspace.com/artemesiablack

KENNY SCHICK - Still present in Schicks approach is his penchant for unique and creative approaches to music--now joining along is his irreverently humorous presence as a front man, which adds a great ying to the yang of his often darkly poetic songs. Under the vivid imagery of his lyrics is his very unique guitar style, which blends lush harmony with percussive techniques, giving the subtle illusion of multiple musicians. If one could imagine a hybrid of Elliot Smith, David Rawlings, Nick Drake, and Michael Hedges, that would put you in the ballpark of Schicks musical leanings. www.myspace.com/basement3music

HANG JONES - The best Americana songs all have one thing in common: someone has to get shot. Singer/songwriter Hang Jones took this to heart when writing the songs for his debut album The Ballad of Carlsbad County. What began as a collection of bluegrass inspired country-rock songs evolved into a Western Outlaw-themed story album complete with hangings, gunfights, love, sex, and revenge. www.myspace.com/hangjones
