kc Posted March 24, 2005 Report Share Posted March 24, 2005 Pepper Jack's this week: THURSDAY, MARCH 24TH: LINDY(WITH FULL BAND), MELISSA McCLELLAND, MATHEW DEZOETE, CECILIA www.lindymusic.com www.melissamcclelland.com Showtime 8:30, Cover $8.00LINDY Lindy’s music defies explanation, and is impossible to categorize – perhaps because no category yet exists which can adequately capture his magic and wisdom. Lindy’s latest album, “The Suspension of Disbelief” is a complete work – a rare thing in a world where a “good” cd requires only three or four decent songs. Each track on the album was as carefully worked as a chapter in a book, and all ar as essential informing the whole. Perhaps the most defining quality in Lindy’s music is its beauty in simplicity. His genius lies in his telling the biggest of truths in the simplest of ways.MELISSA McCLELLAND "This artist makes a statement that she is completely her, and her music further conveys this. Acoustic talent, poetic lyrics, a few funky beats, individualism and emotion are tightly packaged into McClelland’s effort." -Dreams Awake Music (April 2002)FRIDAY, MARCH 25TH~ The EGGMEN Dance all night with the music of the Beatles. Featuring: Doug Feaver, Steve Sinnicks, Shelley Woods, Rik Andrew Showtime: 10:30 Cover $7.00SATURDAY, MARCH 26TH~ GRUVASYLUM, MUSIC IN THE MOMENT (FREEJAZZ) www.brownman.com Showtime 10pm Cover $8.00GRUVASYLUM Improvisation.
