The Spotty Dog 440 Warren St Hudson http://www.faunfables.net/ FAUN FABLES is made to explore human pathos amid an animate earth with musical & physical storytelling forms. It has been attracting a devoted and eclectic following since 1997 with numerous performances throughout North America, Europe, Israel, Australia, New Zealand, Iceland and four record releases distributed worldwide on Drag City Records: EARLY SONG, MOTHER TWILIGHT, FAMILY ALBUM and THE TRANSIT RIDER. Dawn McCarthy is a writer, singer and theater artist whose work is a se a of gorgeous elemental nitty gritty; haunting melodies, breath, stomping, and natural theatricality led by the voice, rooted in the physical body. It is a crossroads where ancient ballad, art song, physical theater and rock music meet. Her lyrics speak to people of all ages about things like rugged housekeeping, street kids, growing old, sleepwalking and exiled travelers returning home. * * * * * * * TivaTiva is an artistic collaboration between vocalist/cellist Daniel de Jesus and producer/guitarist Ted Richardson. In his songwriting, Daniel weaves fanciful tales of Saints and the supernatural with stories of self-protection and emotional exploration. With the added talents of great musicians like drummer Darren Keith and multi-instrumentalist Brendan Walsleben, TivaTiva are renowned for their intense, high-energy live performances. With the release of their new album Music For Interior Castles, TivaTiva is set to levitate toward the stratosphere. Cello-wielding front man Daniel de Jesús captivates with his powerful, soaring vocals and steals the hearts of all mortals in his presence. Combined with the intricate and driving rhythms of drummer Darren Keith and the sonic intelligence of Ted Richardson’s guitar work, TivaTiva provide a transporting and soul-cleansing experience for lovers of music in any genre.
