   About Oxymorons

The Oxymorons take the stage with a mix of the hottest new songs, the best of the old, and their award-winning originals, giving audiences a night of hip-shaking New Orleans funk, soulful blues, Americana roots, classic rock, and cutting-edge guitar driven songs to entertain like no other.

Combining seasoned musicianship and soaring vocals, this seriously-fun eight-piece band has been playing local venues for the past 14 years including the Black Cat, State Theatre, Velvet Lounge, Lewie's, and the legendary Bayou. They've gigged at Adams Morgan Day, the Great Falls Summer Concert Series, Inaugural Balls, and dozens of benefits, weddings, and private parties.

The Oxymorons are two bands in one - capable of reeling off favorite party tunes spanning three decades and well-crafted originals in the rock, funk and blues veins. Songs from their two original CDs have received airplay on local radio stations and were selected for two Washington Area Music Association local music CDs.

Their funkily eclectic cover list includes songs by the Neville Brothers, John Hiatt, Elvis Costello, the Beatles, Macy Gray, Fiona Apple, the Pretenders, Foo Fighters, Al Green, and Bruce Springsteen. With male and female vocals, two guitars, bass, drums, keyboards, congas, and blues harp, the Morons have the versatility to please any crowd.

Hey guys! Where are Sandy Scott & Doug Hartnett? Are they still 'Morons? If so, please tell them that their old bass-playing friend Andy S. says hi and is thinking of them . . . he is alive & well, working for Fender Europe and living in Northern CT, playing bass in Missguided. Thanks!

In the mood for a little cosmic PARTY?

Then Join Art Whino for an OUT OF THIS WORLD experience as we celebrate Yuri’s Night, a World Space Party commemorating Russian Cosmonaut Yuri Gagarin, and the first human space flight. Yuri's Night is like the St. Patrick’s Day or Cinco de Mayo for space. It is a day when the world comes together to celebrate the power, beauty, and party potential of space.
So dress yourself in your best celestial attire (prizes awarded); come see an art exhibition of other-worldly magnitude, and enjoy a Vodka of space themed libations by Stoli Vodka. Cosmic burlesque performances featuring Miss Saturn, spaced out Russian-style post-punk music by Mr. Moccasin, spacey DJ sets, and more will temporarily elevate you from your daily earthly existence.

Performances by: Miss Saturn, Gilded Lily Burlesque, L’il Dutch & selected scenes from Landless Theatre Company’s Space Battles the Musical will orbit throughout the night, hosted by the enigmatic Master Uranus

"The music business is a cruel and shallow money trench, a long plastic hallway where thieves and pimps run free, and good men die like dogs. There's also a negative side."
