But nothing beats being in the room with the music & the musicians!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Angie Bennett & Sharon Wayne
~~facebook stars of their own minds~~
bring you a full hour of
unalloyed dual ukulele & vocal magnificence!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Sharon has worked for over thirty years as a solo performer, recording artist, chamber musician and music educator. A founding member of the San Francisco Guitar Quartet, she has also performed regularly around Boston and New York with the crossover group, Back Bay Guitar Trio. Been everywhere, done everything, and here she is with Angie, erstwhile co-founding CEO of the Bad Mommies, decorated soldier of the Ukulele Resistance Brigade, summa cum laude art historian, fierce proponent of fun prep for the post-apocalypse. Two ukes and intertwined voices that’ll have you beaming in unbecoming glee, somewhat terrified at your own capacity for joy.
Passionate about new music, Sharon has premiered works by local and internationally recognized composers, including Carlo Domeniconi, Dušan Bogdanoviċ, Steve Mobia, Erik Pearson, Davide Verotta, Nancie Kester, Frank Wallace, Scott August and David Paul Mesler, at venues from New York to Boston to Los Angeles, including San Francisco’s Green Room, Center for New Music, SFCM and CMC, has recorded a half dozen cds, dives deep into Hawai’ian folk songs, Ladino songs and Portuguese Fado, while Angie, veteran of Los Train Wreck and Super Great (the band, not the adjectival phrase), debuted as a caged go go dancer at Pier 23 towards the end of the twentieth century, clawed her way across the stage of The Saloon more than once, flailed gloriously at one of the bookshop’s cast-off pianos for a half dozen years before falling for the ukulele, never looked back.
Together, they’ve been having MUCH MORE FUN and they’re ready to share it with you!
Bring ten bucks for the establishment that’s never been afraid to stifle commerce long enough to coddle a culture that’s often gasping for breath but breathes still, laughing giddily between the gasps.
