BLOWOFF featuring Bob Mould and Richard Morel
|
| Description: |
Bob Mould is the punk-pop pioneer behind Husker Du &
Sugar, and has worked more recently on electro/dance projects like
Loudbomb. Richard Morel is a writer/producer/remixer who has worked
with everyone from the Pet Shop Boys to Cyndi Lauper and who has
charted with club mixes of the Killers, Madonna, the Stones, and
countless others.
The two began collaborating in the studio musically, but also began a
DJ collaboration; Blowoff soon became one of DC's hottest gay nights,
and they have taken it to NYC as well. It's been a few years since
we've had the privilege of hosting Blowoff here at R2, but they will
be back to bring their mix of house, rock, electro, including original
mixes. $8. www.blowoff.us

Press for Emma's Revolution "’Never Turning Back’ is one of the best songs I have heard in fifty years...an extraordinary song." --Pete Seeger.
"Pat Humphries’ set musically reiterated her outstanding ability as both creator and interpreter of enduring anthems. The composer of the lasting "Never Turning Back" rendered "Keep Your Eyes on the Prize" and "Swimming to the Other Side" with uncommon grace matching a remarkable certainty and strong stage presence." --Dirty Linen.
Holly Near is a unique combination of entertainer, teacher and activist. An immense vocal talent, Near's career as a singer has been profoundly defined by an unwillingness to separate her passion for music from her passion for human dignity. She is a skilled performer and an outspoken ambassador for peace who brings to the stage an integration of world consciousness, spiritual discovery, and theatricality.
