   About actor slash model
Actor Slash Model (the band) is the Chicago based acoustic duet of Simon Strikeback and Madsen Minax, together creating a clean and succinct blend of skillful musicianship, captivating rythms, alluring harmonies, witty lyrics and overall charming entertainment.

Their stage performance alone has been said to be "completely entrancing," as their connective energy and interactions are humourous, yet concise and natural - the music is clean, tight and penatrative, yet Actor Slash Model is raw, real and fun. The performers are able to blend their seemless music into a comedic act of sorts, as their songs range in content from "nontraditional" love affairs, to fake moustaches, to homoerotic cowboys, to psuedo metal hair ballads and back again.

The two draw from bluegrass and folk roots, yet also incorporate aspects of non traditional independant music, and therefore like to dub their genre "Indie-Grass." Though Actor Slash Model utilizes a playful means, often tongue in cheek, their lyrics convey the depth of political ideas, emotion and belief in every line.

Aside from being musicians and performers, Actor Slash Model (madsen minax and simon strikeback) is/are also currently working on a documentary film project exploring notions of trans and gender variant identities in relation to musicianship and performance. They have to this point conducted over 20 interviews and compiled upwards of 75 hours of footage, filming performers across the US. Their film is scheduled for completion in 2009. All proceeds from the album "Cheap Date" benefit the aS/M film project. please check out http://www.actorslashmodel.com

I think that you guys should consider producing a line of aS/M-related action figures, including "Total Bottom Bev." You pull a string in her back and she says "Open your mouth and say AHHHHHH.
