Don't forget if you've not already heard.
This will be my second time playing at Jammin Java.
The first time I was fettered to the Bass, but this time my unclipped wings will soar into acoustical guitar stardom...(ok not really) but I'll at least get to play with a few of my very good friends including Laura Waters and Greg Justice. In all honesty, the talent lies in those two and I'm privileged to go along for the melodic ride.
Here's the blurb that Greg wrote and the
Jammin Java link as well.
Tuesday March 14 $10 8PM rock Rachel Wilhelm and the Einsteins of Love + Laura Waters and the Defectors Breaking Up the Band to Benefit Rwanda Awareness
Not all division is bad. For example, human cells divide -- and if they didn't you'd still be churning your cytoplasm through an unsophisticated mononucleatic system of interdependent organelles.
Some division is bad -- such as racial segregation of schools.
But another example of good division is the splitting up of the Einsteins of Love.
What was once a powerhouse ensemble band playing select folk, oldies and classic rock covers -- from Nickel Creek to Tom Waits, from U2 to Arlo Guthrie -- has now become two powerhouse ensemble bands, since The Einsteins outgrew their water-permeable membrane and split.
Rachel Wilhelm and the Einsteins will remain true to form, refashioning classic tunes with their rich, vibrant folk-rock sound. And Laura Waters will lead The Defectors in a stripped-down acoustic romp through wild fields of never-before-medleyed-and-yet-still-thematically-coherent cover tunes.
And also true to form, 100% of the proceeds will go towards a good cause. Last time the money went to aiding victims of hurricane Katrina. This time, we will support the production of an independent documentary film about faith and reconciliation in post-genocide Rwanda, directed and produced by Laura Waters. $10 Suggested Donation.
