MARCH INSTALLMENT featuring ROBERT ROSS, KATHENA BRYANT & TIM CHAMPION OF THE HIPPY NUTS, and LI'L MO SUNDAY, MARCH 13 | 8-10 PM | NO COVER, YES TIPS! at BANJO JIM'S | AVENUE C AT 9 STREET
The Hippy Nuts are a gang of Southern-rock lovin' New Yorkers. Frontwoman and authentic Texan Kathena Bryant is a pistol of a performer with a voice to match; she's Annie Oakley in a rock band. On guitar, Tim Champion brings a bluesy cool--the sort of hip one might expect from a Seattle native. The Nuts love good grooves so the Nuts drummer Joe and Bassist Jaded make sure they keep it grooving. Their music recalls the roots of rock n roll, deeply seeded in folk and country soil, with an updated freshness appropriate to NYC. Never showing up without their sense of humor locked and loaded, these self-proclaimed "nuts" do more than entertain: they make you smile.
Robert Ross is a blues singer, guitarist, slide guitarist, harmonica player and songwriter who is known for a wide variety of blues, rock 'n' roll, jazz, and other roots music. He performs as a solo (acoustic or electric), as an electric duo, and with The ROBERT ROSS BAND, and The BLUESMANIAN DEVILS. Robert worked and recorded with Big Joe Turner for Spivey Records & Doc Pomus. He also worked with Lightnin' Hopkins, John Lee Hooker, Big Mama Thornton, Brownie McGhee, Memphis Slim, Otis Rush, J.B. Hutto, Victoria Spivey, Louisiana Red, Eddie Kirkland, Floyd Jones, Homesick James, Bobby Lewis, Charles & Cyrille Neville,, David "Honey Boy" Edwards, Wilbert Harrison, & Champion Jack Dupree. One of Ross' songs, "Sittin' In The Jailhouse" was recorded by Johnny Winter twice, and 2 other originals appeared on ABC's daytime drama "All My Children". Ross won a New York Music Award for Best Blues Artist and has been nominated 6 times over the years along with the likes of John Hammond, Johnny Copeland, Taj Mahal, and Roscoe Gordon. "Robert Ross is a blues icon, one of the great blues spirits." - Bob Fass Radio Un-nameable WBAI. www.RobertRossBand.com
One giant rockin' leap for mankind - Li'l Mo crooning on her anti-gravity tune-moon, her massively eclectic music rocketing at us, trailing Gen Vincent vintage, Stax/Volt essence, unpolluted blues and country...her bell-tone voice cosmic yet down to Earth...check out her seamless grasp of the whole formidable compendium of American music. And it's total fun, to boot... - David Silver, writer of The Compleat Beatles https://www.reverbnation.com/lilmothemonicats http://www.cowislandmusic.com/
