Manhattan Ukulele Noir
The Ukulele Noir Cabaret (http://noir.ukulelecrazy.com)
invades Manhattan September 22 at the Bowery Poetry Club (http://www.bowerypoetry.com/),10:00 p.m. until forever.
"Ukulele Noir" is the concept of Bostonian Craig Robertson
(www.robertsonstudio.com) and has played to raves at the Sky Bar (www.skybar.us) regularly for almost a year.
Craig will emcee the review and perform as well, teamed up with Karen Langlie - together billed as "Scotch & Ginger." Langlie is one of the "Sob Sisters"
(www.sobsisters.com), and her sibling - Renee Rogers - will be teaming up in turn with the "Ukulele Crooner" and Noir regular, Rick Russo
(www.jazzukes.com/crooner/friends.html) .
Joining the Mass.-ive uke talent will be Manhattan's own "Sonic Uke" (www.sonicuke.com) the team of Jason Tagg and Ted Gottfried, happy residents of the "Murray Spaceshoe" building on West 10th Street near Greenwich Avenue, where they regularly offer "uke on the stoop" for any and all free ukulele spirits (http://www.sonicuke.com/nytimes.php).
They also produce the popular "Midnight Ukulele Disco" every other week on Manhattan public access TV - also streamed live on the net. Their site (www.ukuleledisco.com) is loaded with delicious archives as well. New Yorkers should also check out their monthly "Ukulele Cabaret" at Julius in the Village.
In addition!!! The irrepressible and totally cheeky Ukulele Lloyd – stealer of the show at the Fez anti-W show- (http://www.ukulelelloyd.com/ukulele) will get you up and at it with his inimitable shenanigans!
Last but not least, the City will once again feel the weight of Tom Harker, the "Ukulele Man" ( http://www.ukuleleman.net/blog.html) who helped organize ukulele marchers and an anti-"W" show at the Fez during the last Republican National Convention. Only this time it will be "Ukulele Man & his Prodigal Sons," a six-piece band that will abet the Uke Man in striking your fancy.
All the songs are original, and the lyrics are in keeping with the venue: the Bowery POETRY Club. Peter English on guitar, Bob Hite on accordion and slide whistle, Bob Starker on saxophone, Ty Barnes on bass, Karen Greene on trombone and snare, and Jon Dilgard on harmonica will have you dancing on the roof!
There might even be some unexpected, mystery guests as well !!!
Come join the merriment!! The Bowery Poetry Club, Thursday, September 22,
from 10:00 p.m. until the last dog dies.
