at the Highland Inn Ballroom Lounge:

InfluencesWighat would like to acknowledge the inspiration of the following people, entities, and objects: Johann Rudolf Glauber for hydrochloric acid and sodium sulfate or "Glauber’s Salt," the Asteriscus for reasons that only they’ll fully understand, Laura Hope Crews for being "Aunt Pittypat" both on- and off-screen, Giuseppe Genco Russo for spitting on floors in the presence of great as well as humble personages, Short Creak Township for representing Ohio in both good times and bad, the Avignon Regional County Municipality in Quebec for having the finest public restrooms we have ever had the honor to use, and the folks at the Aberffrwd railway station for letting us play there on such short notice.

   About Wighat

The genre-bending musical menagerie known as Wighat was born in early 2006 to singer/frontperson Rubi Cuautle, drummer P. I. Navarro and guitarist Josh Cochran. Wighat strives to make each of their compositions as collaborative as possible in order to come up with new sounds and song structures. Their live shows build upon an electric tension between harmony and dissonance, and this energy has steadily drawn larger and larger audiences. Wighat recently finished recording their debut release at Wonder Root with producer Rob Gal.

A few entries from P.I. Peruke's forthcoming encyclopedic historical treatise 10,000 Steps Toward a New and Improved You: The Secret Order of the Wighat: ____________________________________________________________________
2200 BCE: Mesopotamia--First wighat constructed for King "Great King" Elulu of Mesopotamia whose natural hair had been chewed off by the King of a rival power. This wighat was constructed out of rare mosses imported from distant lands and was topped off by the king's personal emblem of a crown made of bird's nest and eggs. ____________________________________________________________________
1800 BCE: Egypt--Presumably bald pharoah (name unknown) was buried with a collection of over 1000 wighats made of gold, jewels, papyrus, and what is believed to have been pubic hair. ____________________________________________________________________
1917 CE: Finland--Vladimir Ilyich Ulyanov "Lenin" fled to Finland and wore a wighat to disguise his well-shaped but prominent bald head after taking part in a a failed bolshevik uprising.
