Accordionista's Interests
General
Wyrd performance,traditional early 21st century folk music, hedonism, indolence, myself as metaphor, international irrationalization, the campaign for real words, catastrophe theorizing, discom"bob"ulation
I am, in no particular order:
The Reverend Doctor Tommy Squeezebox of The Church of the SubGenius;
The accordion-toting singer of "what kind of music is that exactly?" band Fantasmagoria (now in suspended animation);
The co-creator and genial host (aka Dex Sinister) of psychotic interactive performance The Apocalypse Gameshow;
The lynchpin singer accordionist of stylish loony showband The Bohemianauts;
Crazed accordionist in Nu-Gypsy band Alejandro Toledo and The Magic Tombelinos;
Half of the "romantic cabaret for the twisted and jaded" act The Lowest Common Denominators (with Ophelia Bitz);
A clown and idiot (see above);
Some kind of insane genius (delusional also); wasting my time in front of a computer screen; an experienced theatre director who hates working in theatres; amateur collage artist:

Mama Shamone http://www. myspace. com/mamashamone “Put Mama Shamone on at any venue and they are likely to take the roof off, this was one of the best live shows I’ve seen in years - certainly one of the best in London. In my opinion these guys are destined for greatness, it felt like I was witnessing history being shaped-something was just so right about what they were doing up there.” Vibe Bar
We Yes You No www. myspace. com/weyesyouno “We Yes You No sing about the end of the world, the end of everything. But in an apocalypse that would sound like this I would buy god’s last EP” – Big City Redneck
Language http://www. myspace. com/languageuk “"The verbosity of funk, the poetic twang of intelligent pop. The bridge between Franz Ferdinand and Smashing Pumpkins perhaps" – Bugbear
Hey! Just wanted to let you know that we are playing a gig on Monday 5th of May (Bank Holiday) in Hoxton if you happen to be in town :) You can put your name down on the 3 pound cheap guest list on our space..
Still open for bands!!! One of Wales’ biggest and newest events, encompassing 2 days, 4 stages, 60 bands, and the capacity for 3000 people! The festival is for charity, with proceeds going partly to help projects in the local community and partly to help young musicians in the area, with advertising, their equipment, etc. The ethos is very much that it is run like a community, so people helping each other out rather to help cut down the exchange of cash. We aim to work with ethical companies, aim to actively promote both welsh music, and environmental issues and solutions. Check it out at www. thesquarefestival. com And get in touch for further details. admin@backbeating.co.uk or theraffle@googlemail.com
