This show Wednesday is so special to me.
Obo Martin, The Light Switches (Michael Musika's new band name), & Sleepy Todd are returning to SF for a rare shared show (these days).
They're playing songs + telling stories at one of my favorite spaces in the city - The Lost Church.
We think it may sell out, and even though people like me often say that to get people to buy tix (which is partly true right now), I do want you to be there for real (hardcore people who have stayed on this list for forever).
Matt Adams of The Blank Tapes created this badass poster to commemorate the night. I'm going to print some up - lmk soon if you want one.
ALSO FOR YOUR RADAR!
Lindsay Clark is touring through from Portland, for a rare MONDAY show next next week 4/23.
(I mean, what else do you have going on on a Monday?)
Lindsay has a crystalline voice that will break away the inner rust. Come see what I mean.
Locals Wicked Winds are joining the night, to share their songstories in a more intimate space than usual - Taylor Lissandro, joined by Jimmy Touzel (for at least part of the set) and Jason Cirimele (to be verified).
Lindsay is touring with Timothy Cleary, from the band Sunshine, performing solo as Sun 100. So many names, so little time. They'll be sharing the opening set.
Support these musicians whom I love - touring artists + one rad local band. Links to listen are below, or just trust me and show up.
Tix are $10 in advance, $15 day of:

We are meeting at Alonzo King Lines Ballet (on 7th near Market/Mission & Civic Center BART) - likely on Friday May 4th (to be confirmed)), from 7:30-9pm, to explore movement inspired by the Axis Syllabus, with ideas from Feldenkrais, Body Mind Centering, & yoga. No experience necessary. Curious movers welcome. Get in touch if you'd like to be notified of future meet-ups. The general format: 1) free time for warming up, 2) gather to discuss focus of the day, examining anatomy books for relevant info 3) partner work re-sensitizing the zone where we are focusing 4) practice dancing/walking/moving with the awareness gained 5) potentially practice choreography using principles & awareness from prior work. Suggested donation $10-15.
Thanks for reading. Hope you all are well. Please let me know what's going on in your world, if you are so inclined.
