In an effort to help fulfill a pledge to support the arts, Gerald Singh is bringing 3 bands to The Anza Club: Lakefield, Crucial Taunt, and Moonshine Express. A portion of the proceeds from this event will go to funding the 2012 Pacific Ecology and Evolution Conference (PEEC 2012), so coming to this event will simultaneously support the arts and sciences.
Oh, and it’s a costume party…

With our friends, Redbird and New York’s Ana Egge.
9:30 Ana Egge
10:30 Lakefield
11:30 Redbird
“Redbird is already such a fully formed and accomplished thing…Savannah Leigh Wellman has a clear, true voice and a touch for folk-pop that mingles the melancholy with the melodic. Naturally, it’s a seductive mix.”
“Ana Egge is set to release Bad Blood via Ammal Records on August 23rd. The 12-song set was produced by Steve Earle and recorded at Levon Helm Studios in Woodstock, NY. Steve Earle stated, “Ana Egge’s songs are low and lonesome, big square-stare noir ballads which she plays on a guitar she built with her own two hands and sings like she’s telling us her deepest, darkest secrets.”
