With Daniel Brummel, Emily Lacy, and Wade Ryff of The Black Jesus
live & unplugged in the cactus lounge
Daniel Brummel's alchemical folk hymns draw their inspiration from such natural sources as mountains, lucid dreams, synchronicity, and David Lynch films. The singer/multi-instrumentalist played guitar, piano, clarinet, Indonesian flute, harmonica, mandolin, drums, and dozens of other instruments on his 2005 solo debut, "Speak Easy," a hermetic tour-de-force rich with earthen acoustic textures, Appalachian murder ballads, and a contrapuntal ingenuity that reflects his years of training in UCLA's composition department.
mily Lacy is a folk and electronic sound artist generating works in music, film, and other media. She has performed in exhibitions at PS1 MOMA, The Whitney Museum of American Art, The Hammer Museum, and LACMA, in addition to various living rooms and DIY spaces all throughout America.
The Black Jesus formed in the Fall of 2009 after singer/songwriter Wade Ryff escaped the sweaty grips of multiple unhealthy bands, the San Fernando Valley and a real life witch.
