King Darves + Florida + Kwaidan

King Darves

King Darves began his solo career in the early 2000′ s playing noise shows in New Brunswick basements. He became involved with the noise/rawk/experimental projects Gorgot, ASPS, and the Human Adult Band. He has toured the country a few times and played a few shows in europe last year. Lately KD has been focusing on writing and singing songs. “The Sun Splits for…the Blind Swimmer” is out on De Stijl.

Florida

Brooklyn based trio Florida (originally formed as a solo project in 2006 and expanded to a trio in 2008), headed by Dan Rineer, combines back wood hilly-billy evangelicalism with the genteel tunes of the Charlie Manson mixed with a Daniel Johnston-esq sensibility for song writing.  Florida is backed by Jordan Pettigill and  CJ Jankow. In early 2008 Jordan Pettingill and CJ Jankow relocated to Brooklyn from Florida (the state) where they been playing music since their early teens. When not playing in Florida Pettingill and Jankow stay busy with Cop City/Chill Pillars and Freak Church. Recordings can be found at amerikkkkanmon.tumblr.com.

Kwaidan

(w/ Special  Guest Matt Heyner of NNCK)

Kwaidan is a Brooklyn based improv collective formed in 2008 that centers around Jimmy Thompson (Gwar, Bio-Ritmo, Carcinegenic Static Funk) laying down percussion, grunts and gongs and Dan Rineer (Flordia) spewing mind numbing spaced out guitar. Improvisational-cinematic soundtracks for unmade Japanese 60s horror films.
