Peacock Lounge
552 Haight Street

Euphotic
This is the supertrio of Cheryl Leonard, Tom Djll and Bryan Day euphonizing the Natural, the Physical, and the Imaginary. Natural: penguin bones, driftwood, stones, feathers; Physical: gravity, friction, resonance, and kinesis; Imaginary: breath and circuitry making unimaginable sounds real via plotted electricity. And then there's whatever blue-green chemical bath you've got going between your ears. Come slosh that good stuff into a standing wave right inside the Peacock Lounge.

Headboggle
Sit close and watch him pull a habit out of a rat! Headboggle is the manifestation of Derek Gedalecia's acoustic/electronic performance-art research utilizing his very own kitchen sink which at any moment might uncork with Moog, Harmonica, Banjo, Harpsichord, Irish Harp, EMS Synthi, Violin, Drums, Clavinet, Serge Modular, field recordings, or your very own squirming brain. You thought it sounded familiar... find out at last what it's been trying to tell you all these years.

Sean Keenan
So steady you'd think there was a molten nickel core spinning inside him, Keenan's musical moves feel inexorable. Don't let the stoic demeanor of a soul braving a carboniferous planetary demise fool you, this is no ambient drone but a full tilt soft onslaught. Just like the Earth shifts and cracks so wide open that you can't see it, you'll feel and hear this before your eyes ever get around to believing themselves. Percussion, bizarre reeds, and electronics arise like features of a landscape spilling you off your feet. His collaborations with Cranky and as a member of the This Never Happenned collective only extended the unviewable picture. Dig up those recordings but first come shut your eyes, plant yourself inside the Peacock Lounge excurse across miles of sound.

Wizardmaster
Mark Stramaglia attained wizarddom when first he conjured custom synths and wiggled his claws to weave the invisible algorithms seething within. You can sneak in apprentice-like to conjure mops of your own on his WMCP Generative Synth, see below. Visual bewitchery from Oliver Kollar expands the spell by capturing your eyes, adding your own squirming consciousness to Wizardmaster's brew. Prepare to be ensorcelled as these unholy lamia attach their instruments to power, speaker, screen and souls inside the Peacock Lounge.
