Modified Arts opened in January of 1999 with the hopes of providing a place for artists of all kinds to share their work in a nurturing, supportive environment. We have grown into a prominently recognized venue for live music as well as a respected gallery.
We pride ourselves on showing quality art and presenting the best in performance of all kinds of music, theatre, dance, film and performing art. Located in downtown Phoenix, we occupy a small brick building on Roosevelt Street, in the heart of the Phoenix Arts district.
LISTEN TO OLD CANES HERE
Old Canes is the folk-inflected solo project of the Appleseed Cast's Chris Crisci. The Lawrence, KS multi-instrumentalist recently signed to Saddle Creek to release his sophomore album Feral Harmonic (10/20). He recorded most of the collection alone in his basement studio over three-and-a-half years, though friends contributed guest trumpet, drums, harmophone, cello, and hammer dulcimer. We asked Chris about the collection's triumphant toy piano and horn-lined opening anthem "Little Bird Courage," which debuted in this week's 'Gum Drop He went in depth about the track as well as how this project and the Appleseed Cast function differently as musical outlets

LISTEN TO PEACHCAKE HERE
Peachcake is something that was created in hopes of making the world a safer, better, happier place for all the creatures inhabiting it. We team up with various individuals from time to time, who help further our quest, enhance our ideologies/enablement of creative endeavors, and see eye to eye on our desire to help people and improve the earth’s homeostasis. We do this by creating a fun, upbeat, positive message and environment through which our sonorous sounds, live application of our antics and music can be correctly conveyed and seen in a lighthearted, personable, and interactive way to thus see people smile, laugh, dance, and just plain…feel good! It’s all about spreading the understanding, acceptance, and greatness of vibes!
LISTEN TO JOE FIRSTMAN HERE
Jim Farber of the New York Daily News wrote: "In the songs of Joe Firstman, sensitive young men prowl the hills of Los Angeles, searching for fame and beauty, only to find self-destructive behavior and egos gone wild… While Hollywood's peaks and pitfalls have been prominently charted by songwriters from Don Henley, Stevie Nicks and Jackson Browne to Warren Zevon, Firstman aims to reinvent the milieu for his own generation."
