Hey folks. So I'd love to book my friends band, Wood Spider at the flying
brick on Jan. 22nd. You may remember Rye N Clover (banjo player from
ithaca who spoke about fracking) Maxwell was the saw player with thosse
folks.
Anyway, here is the official pitch. If there is no objection, It'd be
awesome to have the show at tfb.
Wood Spider plays dark, manic-depressive folk punk with heavy influence
from ragtime and vaudeville. Between the five of us, we play guitar,
plectrum banjo, ukulele, cello, accordion, glockenspiel, singing saw,
washboard, and also stomp and hoot and holler a lot. Maybe you’d like us
if you like Blackbird Raum, Mischief Brew or Tom Waits.

We're also affiliated with the Spikedriver Collective, an arts collective
founded to help promote and facilitate DIY artist collaboration, and build
a community of artists who would rather collaborate with other artists as
opposed to faceless middlemen and businessmen. We will be touring with a
gallery of work by the artists involved along with a zine distro. (All we
need is some wall and table space to set it up)

The tour is starting in the Northeast, heading through the midwest, down to
New Orleans, and back up the East coast. We need an RVA date on Sunday,
January 22nd! Do you think that would work? I think the Flying Brick is
exactly the sort of space we like to play, but if you can't swing a show
there, I'll trust your judgement with any place else! If you can't help,
that's cool too. No pressure! But let's hang out when I make it down!
