[image: High Mayhem] * * *Cloacas, Grannia Griffith, and Evarusnik performance on Meow Wolf's "Due Return:* *Saturday, June 25 at 6pm* *Center For Contemporary Arts* 1050 Old Pecos Trail, Santa Fe Come see the wonder that is Cloacas, and pick yourself up the new work of art that is their new album,”The Oatmeal Commission.” Also performing is the fantabulous Grannia Griffith and Evarusnik. Listening to Cloacas is like travelling sideways in time. This (mostly) instrumental Santa Fe band invokes elements of classic Americana and classical, as well as whatever their acoustical instruments inspire. With song titles like “Venetian Blind Man”, “Hot Hamburger Pizza” and “Knuckle Butter”, they present a humorous but sincere irony that is at times bitter-sweet and melancholic, and at others gangly-legged and goofy. They have been described as a tiny mountain orchestra in a wooden box with rusty hinges. Cloacas are: Johnny “Johnny Bell” Bell: banjo and ukelele Sabrina Griffith: violin, viola, vocals and kazoo Damon Griffith: mandolin, fret-less Mandolin, vocals, sit-box and Horn of Enough Michael “Smitty” Smith: percussion, vocals, saw and xylophone Grannia Griffith: vocals and saw
