It goes without saying that singer Lisa Kekaula has a voice thats as big as her Afro, and powerful enough to strip paint off of a car, and that her male comrades are all black belts on their respective instruments. What REALLY impressed me about their performance was the sincerity and passion behind it. [myspace]

7″ release party
One of San Francisco’s most wonderfully…San Franciscan acts is Carletta Sue Kay! She’s been blowing up the underground scene here in SF. Carletta Sue Kay is a flouncy, dramatic gal who loves to sing gripping stories about her adoration for lads and her various heartbreaks. This is one talented gal who can sing her guts out!

Fleeting Trance is the songwriting & recording project of Manasseh Bernal. Fleeting Trance is currently based in Oakland, California and can be seen fairly often in bay area clubs and occasionally on tour. The current line-up consists of drums, bass, guitar, keyboard, pedal & lap steel guitar. Manasseh began playing guitar & writing songs in 1996 and started playing out in 1998. Fleeting Trance released it’s debut CD entitled “17″ in May of 2009 and is due to release it’s second C.D. in January 2010.

“Named for the number of tracks, 17 is classic folksy, bluesy americana. What listeners might not expect is the occasional reggae influences that show up on some songs. The addition of reggae is a nice touch, and fits well with the band’s overall sound. Lyrics are entertainly messed up.”

Blood and Sunshine
http://www.myspace.com/bloodandsunshine
electro shoegaze soul

Blood and Sunshine was conceived in the death of a dream. James Brennan, a house-music producer who’s inspiration had gone, abandoned his long held ambition to be a successful dance music DJ. After a short period of mourning came a long period of woodshedding whereby James rebuilt the songwriting and performing muscles that had atrophied from years of neglect. (cue exhilarating music: montage of James hunched over a guitar in a broken down apartment, interspersed with the open mics of San Francisco. Enter: Joseph)

Joseph Macrino came through the door at Lennon Studios where James was prepping what would eventually become Blood and Sunshine’s first EP. Joseph liked what he heard. More importantly, he liked James. James liked Joseph too. And so, a musical friendship began. [taken from the bowels of their myspace]
