Duck & Cover 2 - an evening of radical reinterpretations of popular songs. A co-presentation with 21 Grand.

Mary Clare Brzytwa with Theresa Wong sometimes and at other times with Travis Johns.

Duck and Cover 2 is the 2nd iteration of 21 Grand¹s series of radical reinterpretations of popular songs performed, reformed, and deformed by local musicians. Unlike the interminable TV program, American Idol, where talent is judged partly on one¹s ability to perform a relatively faithful rendition of someone else¹s material, we aim to present unfaithful renditions that deconstruct the song, work with it in an unconventional way, or use it as a leaping off point to do something more interesting. Duck and Cover 2 takes place over 2 nights, one at the Luggage Store Gallery in San Francisco, and the other at 21 Grand.

Cost: $6-10 sliding
