Event Description


CHERRY BOMB LIVE w/ Lioness, Hibou, Lyracist + more

CHERRY BOMB LIVE
Queer Concert Series – 4th edition

WITH PERFORMANCES BY:

LIONESS www.Myspace.com/lionesslionesslioness
Lioness are an art-dance/rock trio fronted by the alluringly mysterious Vanessa Fischer (vocals & synths), backed by the thunderous rhythms created by Ronnie Morris (bass & synths) and Jeff Scheven (drums & machines). Their sans-guitar sound is like a head-on collision of old and new, as Fischer draws upon jazz, old soul and blues, roaring and moaning over layers of electronic squall and elastic rhythms. They’ve been in studio, recording a follow-up to 2008’s smash EP. Consider this an invite to hear LIONESS’ latest. Amazing.

HIBOU www.hiboumusic.com
Bluesy melodic synth-pop. Hibou’s music is for anyone who has ever seen the inside of a dark bar at last call or have ever felt like Robyn or Metric were writing songs just for them. Singer Tracey Adams-Thibaudeau’s voice is a warm gun polished with gin and tears while Sergio Abegao coaxes the tones from her voice with his sweltering guitar, heart-pounding beats and BFF back-up vocals. Check their debut album, Today’s Vices.

LYRACIST www.lyracistmusic.com
Prolific T.O. hip-hop emcee Lyracist a.k.a. Katie Kush has released 8 album-worthy mixtapes to date, including 2010’s “Broke Billionaire” and this year’s “Despicable Me.” Like an athlete who’s created their own way of playing, Lyracist has come into herself and her flow as many underground artists never do. She’s a raw and original talent, effortless in her delivery and wordplay. Raised by Basement Hip-Hop & Old School Rap, Lyracist always stays true to her roots and passion.
