Of the artists performing that night, Boston writes:
1)Jneiro Jarel – Dr. Who Dat?, Shape of Broad Minds, Master of Android
Boombap and LowEnd Feedback. Label Who/Lex Records' avant garde hip hp
artist brings the BASS uptown in his own unique way.2)Dearling Physique – Minneapolis' electronic/rock outfit creates a
strangely cool experience that toys with pop forms, musical dissonance
and theater that is unlike anything else out there.3)MiLO – LA art rock band introduces their angular slow burn to
Manhattan. Fronted by chanteuse Lola and musical directed by Mikael
Sandgren(Bill Viola), MiLO is all about a darkly elegant mood.4)MuthaWit with special guests will raise their songcraft and
improvisational vibration to the fore in celebration of the release of
their new album "Men & Women or the Revenge of Uncle Baldy."
