Saturday March 21 -- Trachtenburg Family Slideshow Players -- The Boot
We are featuring The Trachtenburg Family Slideshow Players on Monday March 21st. I first heard about them a few years ago when my friend David Miller released the tribute album Hello Radio: The Songs of They Might Be Giants. Jason Trachtenburg covered Dr. Worm (along with covers by Self, Frank Black, Steve Burns and This Radiant Boy). David also told me all about the Slideshow Players. They're s a family band, made up of Jason, Tina PiƱa and their daughter Rachel. They play songs set to slide shows. It's really fun.
The show is Monday March 21st and it's only $8.00. Tickets are on sale here and at http://www.auctionhouseevents.com. Our space is very limited, so we always suggest to buy tickets in advance.
