   About Quasar Wut-Wut

After cutting their teeth in Detroit, this four-piece relocated to Chicago in 1999 and found a home amongst the vibrant and eclectic indie-rock scene. In addition to playing raucously over-the-top shows at Chicago's best clubs, Quasar Wut-Wut has also taken to exploring a wide range of new musical projects and collaborations. A recent endeavor found the band writing and performing an original score to Buster Keaton's silent masterpiece The General for Northwestern's Block Cinema Museum. Another engagement, a collaboration with Chicago's Redmoon Theater, included performing for audiences of 2,000 a night from a raft in the Lagoon behind the Museum of Science and Industry. Winter of 2005 saw the completion of Coupon Studios, their new recording studio and rehearsal space. This has only helped to solidify their D.I.Y. ethic and has inspired Quasar Wut-Wut to politely rock out with their cocks out that much more diligently.

What one guy had to say about their most recent album:

"After four years of gigging and untold hours of knob twiddling, Quasar Wut-Wut produced an ambitious album thats challengingly experimental yet ultimately accessible. Lyrically dark but sonically thrilling, TARO SOUND, a dense and frantic soundtrack, is the painstaking result of a thinking bands toil. It's a teeming cityscape of upside-down pop houses and tangent-taking breezeways echoing with the poetry of Cohen and Ono Band Lennon. Frenetic guitar lines give way to swells of odd grandeur; inspired playing finds manic grace inside folds of loose-limbed indie pop. Approximating the spontaneous combustion of a lost gypsy caravan blasting the White Album and Rain Dogs, TARO SOUND has an indescribably unique sound, a sound that is at once catchy and strangely familiar, yet reveals more intriguing layers with each listen."

Hello,
Over the years we have suffered many panic attacks,
Deaths of friends and family members, Births of our own beutiful children,
Some of us have been near death and found away to stick around,
We saw the begining of the war and found the light of faith,
Traveled deap into the words and music of our art,
Learned and gathered the wisdom that will carry us thru to the next exibition of our lives,
WE have held the ocean of gods tears and faced most of our fears,
Being in the band wasnt about becoming famous,
But more of a tribute to god, A spirtual journey,
Not all of our actions were worthy of gods affection, but alot of them were,
We have one more show on Aug. 31st {fri 8pm all ages)
at The House of Blues
We would love to see all of you that have given this band support,
God bless all of you,
peace
dana
