Performing at The Sleeping Lady this Thursday September 27, 2009
Posted by onemouthband in : Music, One Mouth Band, One On One, Recommendations , comments closedI’m very excited to be performing at one of my favorite venues in one of my favorite towns! This is a no cover, all-ages show, featuring my solo act as The One Mouth Band, me with One On One, and my good friend Jory Prum. There may be some other special guests as well, you never know with this place. That’s one reason why I love it so!
Another reason The Sleeping Lady is so great? The food! It’s healthy and organic without tasting like it’s just healthy and organic. Plus, there are sizable and tastefully varied beer and wine options. Oh, and then there’s dessert…
I’ll be debuting some new solo, live-looping originals. Fresh from our Saturday performance at the Body and Soul Festival, Nicolle and I will be doing some brand new stuff too. Jory is funny, facetious, and freakin’ fabulous at parodies. Have I mentioned how much I’m looking forward to this night?
Come for dinner and music or just the music, just don’t miss out on the fun!
Body & Soul Festival TOMORROW September 25, 2009
Posted by onemouthband in : Music, One On One, Recommendations, TaKeTiNa, Travels , comments closedI’ll be opening the Fairfax Body & Soul Festival at noon tomorrow with Nicolle Lane in our new duo act One On One. Then at 3PM, I’m leading a TaKeTiNa Rhythm Journey, too! Tickets are $5, but I’ve got a couple comps, so contact me if you want one.
This festival promises to be the kind of family fun that only Fairfax can really provide. Where else would you find awesome music like mine next to a Bollywood class, Star Wars Kung Fu Obstacle Course, yoga, tai chi, kung fu, interesting panels on parenting and on health reform, free mini massages & acupuncture, chocolate tasting, an organic wine bar…and more?

Body of Sound group
I’m covering a class for my friend Alyssa DeCaro who is busy leading a workshop in Bali. But since I’m a Certified TaKeTiNa Teacher, CircleSong Leader, Vocal/Beatbox Instructor, and I tour internationally as The One Mouth Band, as well as performing with local a cappella groups like SoVoSo, The Irrationals, and One On One, I guess I’m qualified. Come join me for an immersive experience in organic human music!
This is a regular Thursday night class that you might want to check out sometime aside from when I’m teaching too. Alyssa is really great! Here’s the details:
BODY OF SOUND: A Journey into Rhythm, Voice and Movement
Twin Space, 2111 Mission St. (at 17th) Ste, 300, San Francisco (near 16th St. Bart)
Every Thursday, 6:30-8PM
$10 drop-inAfter numerous requests we are finally offering a weekly class in the Bay Area. Each session we will explore the body as a canvas for vibrant expression and collective creativity! In this class, you will develop your sense of rhythm, as well as easeful and authentic expression of your body and voice. We’ll use a variety of movement practices as a foundation for body mechanics as we soar on rhythms, melodies and laughter. We will draw from modalities such as Body Percussion, Vocal Expression, Contact Improvisation, Ecstatic Dance, Yoga, Circle Song and Balinese Kecak (Monkey Chant).
This is a perfect way to discover and refine your body as your most essential instrument. Come play and open up your creativity!!!
