The New Black Light Folk Festival
Read all about it! Yes, you are invited to a very rare event on Full Moon Monday, October 17th, from 8PM until midnight at Glasshouse, 38 South 1st between Wythe & Kent in Williamsburg, Brooklyn (L-Bedford/G-Metropolitan/JM-Marcy). The performance will be open to the curious of all ages and costs only $5. Performing will be Tim Bluhm out from the West Coast playing his songs the California way. Not to be missed! A special treat will be The Joints, an open community of musicians with a full seven-piece lineup this time around including Brother Michael, Ion, and the lovely Minju Pak. Singer Margot Bianca, guitarist/vocalist from the Assault, will be bringing new energy to the event. Spider is Sister Jane, with a voice like brown rice syrup, while Diamond Caverns is Brother David from down Texas way bringing mellow orange vibes, and The Greek Isles (Tianna, Hannah, and Laura) will be presenting strings and voices channeled from Mount Olympus.
The original Black Light Folk Festival took place between October and December in 2003 at a couple of art galleries in NYC- ATM Gallery on Ave B, and Deitch Projects in Brooklyn. There were over 20 performers in the series; and this event, like the original series, is hosted by The Joints, a loose-knit family of musicians, music lovers, and just plain lovers. Join us. The Movement is growing, grow along with us.-culled from (Brother) Mike Paré
