Sparks - Two Hands One Mouth Tour

Attention Ron and Russell Mael fans. Sparks will be playing as a brothers duo in selected US cities this April. This includes two Coachella performances. Quite literally "Two Hands One Mouth Tour" means no band, no computers just Ron (two hands…on keyboards) and Russell (one mouth…on vocals) playing songs from the Sparks extensive catalog. Not to be missed.

Two Bay Area Why? Shows.

Why? is playing two Bay Area shows today and tomorrow. Tonight's show is in the East Bay at The New Parish. Tomorrow's show is West Bay at The Great American Music Hall. More live dates including SXSW 2013 info HERE.

Sinkane In-store Tomorrow.

Attention all Bay Area dwellers. Sinkane will be playing a special in-store performance at Amoeba - SF tomorrow (3/2/13) at 1:30 PM. It's free and it's all ages.

Sinkane is an alias of Ahmed Gallab, a solo recording artist from Columbus, Ohio who sings and plays numerous instruments (drums, bass, guitar, and keyboards, just to mention a few). His percussion-heavy style of music draws from a wide range of influences, most noticeably free jazz (e.g., Pharoah Sanders) and shoegaze (e.g., My Bloody Valentine).

Born in Sudan, Gallab and his family fled to the United States when he was six years old. He made his debut in May of 2008 on Emergency Umbrella Records with the EP Color Voice. That same year, he toured as the drummer of Caribou and Of Montreal. A self-titled album was released in May 2009. His latest album, Mars, is out now via DFA. Audio samples and purchasing options HERE.
