Hi and Welcome to J Lee Arts and Music, Dateline 5/7/26 Played a great show up in North Beach on the sidewalk of Grant and Green St. We were the modern incarnation of Willie and the Poor Boys(Bring a nickel/Can’t be beat). If only John Fogerty stopped by he would have got it. There is a video here shot by Audrey Eng (thanks Audrey) of our first performance of new song Drips & Drabs. There’s a new recording up of the Skemes tune Rainy Sunday here. FYI I am trying to angle off of Youtube and am sending all our content over to either Subamerica or the Internet Archive. Big tech is bad for you and is ruled by a bunch of bros with way too much power and fascist inclinations so the less time you waste there and actually find alternatives and make shit not about computing the better for your well being and happiness. OK, what else? Warm Spell played a very fun show with like minded friends and musicians Flatways and Agnes Martian. I was blown away by these two bands who take music to new and exciting places. There will be recordings of both Skemes and Spell shows coming soon via our archivist Tom Scharff. Been doing some plein aire painting, one of Devils’ Slide the other at Wildcat Creek, Berkeley. View them here. What else? Bill of Starry Skemes and I are made a mobiles/video synth/electric sitar/ambient noise video and will be riffing and grokking some ideas for that. It was pretty 3rd Eye psychedelic I must say, maybe even 4th eye. I dunno. Will post vid soon. Some cool gigs coming up, see below as well as links to recent shows. Thanks for checking out the site!
