Whoa! Hi! It’s Serina from the Loyd Family Players and this is short
notice now, but we have been so busy busy busy!!! We just had an
amazing time at the Joshua Tree Music Festival this past weekend and are
already packing in more punch with a show TOMORROW NIGHT (Thursday March
22nd) at the Rickshaw stop in San Francisco followed by a weekend of
Carnaval Festivities in the Mission District. What does that mean? We
are all warmed up, callused and ready to rock through the weekend and
hope you are too.
Thanks so much for those of you who were able to come support us in the
desert and buy beer cozies and CDs and sweat your socks off. We will
have more good stuff ready for you Thursday night. Be sure to come
through as we play with March Fourth Marching Band, our horny friends
from Portland and Kid Beyond a tight local MC.
We look forward to seeing you there! We play early, at 8pm and are
following up with a tweener, so perfect for the early birds and the
night owls alike. This is a show NOT to be missed, so don't be that guy.
Peace!

MARCH FOURTH MARCHING BAND
Portland's version of the Extra Action Marching Band comes to town. "A
drum section decked out in Cabaret-on-crack costumes, complete with
booby-busting bustiers and caps adorned with huge black feathers; Betty
Boop girls in black and white polka dot dresses twirling red umbrellas;
dreadlocked hippies blowing horns in hobo costumes; stilt walkers in
zoot suits doing funky chickens and Riverdance kicks in the crowd --
everything but Danny Bonaduce in a tree. There must be at least 30
people in this crazy ensemble, and they're all whooping and hollering,
Woodstock Festival-style, in a bizarre brass jam swollen with funk and
carnival sass. It's like Mr. Bungle meets A Clockwork Orange inside a
raucous 1920s speakeasy." --Phoenix New Times

KID BEYOND
A "fiercely charismatic... truly mesmerizing" performer, armed with a
powerful rock-soul singing voice and the jaw-dropping skills that earned
him the title "San Francisco's Best Beatboxer," Kid Beyond has rocked
sprawling festival crowds, huge warehouse parties, and jam-packed venues
from the Fillmore to Carnegie Hall. "Using his top-shelf beatboxing
skills, expert vocals, and some of the deepest, most amazing
live-looping chops we've ever seen... Kid B's
ability to pump up a crowd is truly impressive." -- Keyboard

THE LOYD FAMILY PLAYERS
Born in Chico, raised up at Burning Man, and brought to urban fruition
in Oakland's Mosswood Park and Lower Bottoms, the Loyd Family Players
take the pulse of traditional Brazilian samba and twist it into a loud,
sweaty, sexy muss that's all their very own. The ten-to-twenty-person
coed percussion troupe swipes elements from hip-hop, dancehall, punk
rock, drum n' bass, summer camp...anything goes. With members hailing
from such exotic locales as England, Brazil, Rome, Peru, Antarctica, and
Long Island, the Loyds are a foxy, unstoppable (and unstoppably foxy)
dance machine.
