SUMMARY:Chris Trinidad's Chroma Tonic
DESCRIPTION:Naima Shalhoub\, voice/keyboards; Scott Oshiro\, flute/quantum electronics; Alex Heigl\, guitar/effects; Chris Trinidad\, bass/guitar/synth/bass; Cy Thompson\, drums/percussion \nChris Trinidad’s latest project Chroma Tonic weaves together musicians from wildly divergent backgrounds in order to concoct unique sounds and intriguing groove music. Drawing inspiration from ambient music pioneers Brian Eno and Robert Fripp\, the early avant-garde space psychedelia of Pink Floyd\, the progressive electronic rock of Tu-Ner\, the adventurous electric hybrid experimentations of early seventies Miles Davis\, Chris Trinidad’s Chroma Tonic blends these explorations with the influences of the members of the group. \nNaima Shalhoub provides vocal and synthesizer textures\, Alex Heigl plays ambient and looped guitars\, Cy Thompson brings an array of Afro-Caribbean percussive elements\, Scott Oshiro performs on flute and programs the quantum (!!) electronic improvised live interactions\, while Chris Trinidad holds down the foundation on bass guitar and synth bass. \n$25 cover charge; byob\nStudents $10 \nFor a reservation\, call the bookshop at 415-586-3733

SUMMARY:Nashville Honeymoon
DESCRIPTION:Lynne Maes\, rhythm guitar & vocals; Hank Maninger\, lead guitar & vocals; Tim Wagar\, bass guitar; Paul Revelli drums \nYou’re in for two sets in honky tonk heaven. Mainstays of the Bay Area Americana scene\, and the Bird & Beckett bandstand\, for nearly a decade\, Nashville Honeymoon has traversed country\, rockabilly\, bluegrass\, and pop across four albums\, writing songs that uplift the tangled mess of day-to-day life and investigate universal themes of love and loss – often at the same time. Their latest album\, Sidewinder\, is true to its title\, offering a collection of songs that are grounded in classic country while edging into different sounds\, genres\, and themes that run through American pop music. This is some of the sweetest\, sauciest\, and most sincere country music you’ll ever hear. \n\nSUNDAY HAPPY HOUR! Grab your partner! Gather your kids! Call a friend! Come on down to the bookshop to get a bit better acquainted with your neighbors and just have a ball before the start of another long hard work week!
