CARLA BOZULICH
Carla Bozulich is a critically acclaimed musician and singer who's groundbreaking work has made her a highly regarded and valuable presence in the avant-music scene. Her bands have included the Geraldine Fibbers, Evangelista, Red-Headed Stranger (w/ Willie Nelson), Scarnella (w/ Nels Cline), Ethyl Meatplow, as well as numerous other projects with noted musicians and albums released under her own name.
For this concert, Carla is appearing with John Eichenseer (a.k.a. JHNO) as a duo of vocals, violin and electric guitar. Her newest album with Evangelista, In Animal Tongue, is to be released in September on the Constellation label. You can hear a song from it here: http://cstrecords.com/cst082/

VENUS BOGARDUS
Venus Bogardus is a Trans-Atlantic post-punk band formed in England and relocated to the Santa Fe, NM area, playing national shows and UK shows on return visits. The band is inspired by "no-wave-new wave", and experimental literature.
Founding members James Reich (vocals, guitar) and Hannah Levbarg (vocals, bass guitar) met in 2002 as fans of Richard Hell’s writing and music, fell in love, opened (and closed) a nationally acclaimed independent bookshop in Bath, England before collaborating on Venus Bogardus in 2005. James is a published author and poet. Hannah, originally from Texas, is Richard Hell’s Web forum moderator (since 2003). The couple is fictionalized in the book Julie & Julia by Julie Powell.

The PROXEMICS
Founded in early 2009, The Proxemics are an autonomous music project with a revolving cast of musicians led by lynch pin and frontman Alex Neville (The brilliant Dullards, A. Barnhouse, Audible Whispering 1/2 Quartet).
The Proxemics are a stripped down assembly, sometimes appearing as a garage-based, dirty wall of sound, sometimes as deconstructed balladeers offering you their hearts on their sleeves. Neville unites crunchy, angular alt-rock with a singer-songwriter sensibility while never letting go of his experimental roots. Mimicking the definition of their moniker, The Proxemics are at times both distant and intimate, treating their audience to an emotional tug-of-war. The songs appear effortless on the surface, but upon deeper investigation they become a complex system of asymmetrical forms with sonic threads and noise, weaving songs into a larger, continuous theme.
The shifting members of The Proxemics are often long-time members of the High Mayhem Emerging Arts Collective, also based out of Santa Fe, New Mexico, which has helped shape the City Different’s unique underground scene for the last ten years.
Alex Neville (Guitar, Mandolin, Vocals), Antione Pasquier (Guitar), Peter Duggan (Bass) and Lukas Carr (Drums).
