Formed at the end of 2001, collaborators Crystal Madrilejos and Angela Carlucci take the stage sharing guitar and xylophone duties while weaving in and out of haunting vocal harmonies. Often times, confusing their voices with one anothers. Their acoustic folk songs deal mainly with the trials and tribulations of that wonderful but also very wretched thing called love. Sometimes they can be real downers. Currently recording their third full-length album and trying to improve their stage banter.
The Baby Skins have released two full-length albums Optional Rally Funpack (2001) and For A Boy With A Fractious Skull (2004) both available through Olive Juice Music (www.olivejuicemusic.com) also a full band 3 song demo was released in 2002 with Steven Mertens (of the bands The Moldy Peaches, The Gnomes, Wild Bee) on drums and James Broughel (of the band LEVY) on bass. Available through Unicornsounds (www.unicornsounds.com)
The Baby Skins are also two-thirds of the band Tri-Lambs (with Toby Goodshank). Angela Carlucci is half of the band Double Deuce (also with Toby Goodshank).

Its going to be an incredible evening and I know you’re just going to love it and never forgive yourself should you miss what is surely to be “THE EVENT” of the spring season, Antifolk speaking. Just who, you ask with hope and wonder filling your heart, did I book for this most special evening? Well, hold onto your hats doll, cause I pulled out all the stops for this one! We got: JOHN HOUX kicking off the show at 8:00pm; SOFT BLACK at 9:00pm; LENNY MOLOTOV at 10:00pm; DAN COSTELLO at 11:00pm RAV SHMUEL at midnight. I’ll be MCing the entire evening and who knows what that means, but it should be interesting! And its close enough to my birthday, so now you have yet another reason to show up! Just don’t forget to bring the cake and cash gifts are always welcome! Okay, forget the cake and cash, come anyway and lets all have a really great time! I’ll see you there! Fredo, ummm.. JEANNIE!!
