FIRE MUSEUM IS PROUD TO PRESENT A BENEFIT FOR THE REVOLUTIONARY ASSOCIATION OF THE WOMEN OF AFGHANISTAN (RAWA) AT TUVA SPACE IN BERKELEY FEATURING

SPECIES BEING (MEMBERS OF SLEEPYTIME GORILLA MUSEUM, RUMAH SAKIT AND MUMBLE & PEG W/GRAHAM CONNAH)
"Species Being is an improvisational avant-rock quartet whose music travels through passages of high intensity rhythm, layers of experimental sound scaping, and poignant pieces of down tempo ambiance. A unique blend of experimental, prog, and drone within an improvisational format." -audiogalaxy

D84 & DSD + HK-OB46538
(DSD = Danielle DeGruttola on electric cello; D84 = Bevin Kelley of "Blectum from Blechdom" on electronics; HK-OB46538 = Henry Kaiser on electric guitar.)
"D84 & DSD serve up wonderful, moving sounds... alert and alive; a beat lasts barely long enough to be fully explored and then is cleared out to make way for a new idea." Guitarist extraordinaire Henry Kaiser joins forces with these innovative women to create something truly special."

FAUN FABLES
"..played a dizzying array of Appalachian hootenanny stompers, Weimar cabaret schmaltz, Swiss Alps yodeling, and hypnotic, ghostly, chanting laments.. dusty, husky (vocals) creeping into wounded-animal yodels that chill the bone." -s. hurwitt (east bay express)

ZEEK SHECK
"Audio experiments combined with voices, string players, improv and laptop computers...truly ahead of her time, Zeek creates her own mythical sound collage space world." -clamazon.com

Tuva Space
One block from the ASHBY BART Station - [Look for the "ANT" sign]

DONATION $10
