The Atom Age and Nobody's Baby

The Atom Age find their inspiration from the dust covered collections of unhinged 60’s punk and R&B, whose crazed energy was once misconceived as a better fit for your trashcan than for your turntable. While taking many of their cues from these primitive pilgrims of punk, The Atom Age still strive to lay down their own modernized take on the sound. The band’s new record, Hot Shame, was co-produced by Blag Dahlia of the Dwarves, and channels a wide range of influences from bands like The Sonics, Link Wray and the Murder City Devils.
NOBODY'S BABY - The squealing tires, the kick, kick kick, snare, young love, and blood curdling scream. All ingredients to an American classic, the Teenage Death Song. Nobody's Baby formed around the idea of capturing the raw honesty buried in early 60's cheese schlock. Think the Shangri-las on a Saturday speed binge and Del Shannon still drunk on a Monday morning. Buddy Holly post-plane crash. The band writes a love letter to all this. They spill their heart on the page, but the letter is written with vintage fuzz pedals, trashcan reverb, and cave dweller drums. The end result is a garage doo-wop funeral parade, and everyone's invited."
Elektric Voodoo

Redding, CA 96001 Map
Doors 8PM | $10 Tickets | 21+ w/ Valid ID
Elektric Voodoo is a nationally touring band based in San Diego, CA. The band blends classic afrobeat, Latin, rock & roll, psych, jazz, blues and many other influences into its own unique genre that tastefully straddles the line between modern and vintage.
The band started when Scott Tournet (founding member of Grace Potter & The Nocturnals) started writing new material after leaving the Nocturnals. "Musically I wanted to try something a little different than what I'd done before. I wanted to make music with an undeniable rhythmic pulse but I really didn't want to make computer driven dance music as these past few years that seems to be much of what I hear." To accomplish that, Tournet tapped into the rhythms of West Africa, Latin America, and World music for inspiration. What came out the other side though was not just a world music project.
Tournet's old band, The Nocturnals, had a quite a successful career which saw them write, record, and perform with The Allman Brothers, Billy Gibbons (ZZ Top), Taj Mahal, Dan Auerbach (The Black Keys), Robert Plant (Led Zeppelin), Mavis Staples, Bob Weir (Grateful Dead), and many more. Through these experiences Tournet became schooled in song craft, soul, pop, blues, and classic rock & roll. So when he began writing songs to go on top of these powerful world rhythms the influences from his past shone through. What the listener is left with is a very unique sound that while immediately is very danceable, also offers innovation, song craft, and melody. Elektric Voodoo is a band that can excite and exhaust a Saturday night audience while also engaging and challenging more focused listeners.
Rounding out this powerful 7 piece ensemble is Tournet (vocals, guitar, harmonica), Matt Bozzone (drums/percussion, vocals), Ty Kiernan (congas, timbales, percussion), Mitchum Yacoub (congas, timbales, percussion),Travis Klein (tenor sax, keyboards, percussion), Brad Nash (baritone sax, percussion), and Luke Henning (bass, vocals).
Elektric Voodoo formed in 2016 and released their debut album later that year, which was met with incredibly positive critical reactions. Glide Magazine says, "tastes of The Flaming Lips, Santana, Fela Kuti, Tame Impala and The Arcade Fire break through atop this soulful collection of songs that are birthed with unlimited potential," while Grateful Web wrote that "by drawing from a variety of rich musical traditions, they have crafted a cohesive album that blurs the lines between genres and eludes classification." Relix Magazine describes the album as "intriguing, enticing, and engaging all at the same time ----- evidence of Elektric Voodoo's ability to cast a hypnotic spell."
The band released their second album, Animal, in October 2018, and did a national tour in support of it. They released two singles off of the album, both of which have received positive reviews. In their review of "Animal Pt. 2", the lead single off of their new album, Glide Magazine describes Elektric Voodoo and their sound as, “a rhythmic howl of righteous grooves, rock tenacity, and experimental noise that recalls elements of Antibalas, Tame Impala, and Kamasi Washington."
Since 2016, Elektric Voodoo has toured extensively throughout the U.S. and has shared the stage with a wide variety of artists including Anders Osborne, Karl Denson's Tiny Universe, Rebirth Brass Band, Songhoy Blues, Con Brio, Easy Star All Stars, Five Alarm Funk, The Fabulous Thunderbirds, Commander Cody, The Brothers Comatose, Orgone, and more.

Doors 8PM | $10 Adv Tickets | $15 Day of | 21+ w/ Valid ID
Saturday, August 3rd with special guests Derek Deon and the Vaugns
---------
Puppeteers for Fears, the world’s greatest puppet rock band and comedy troupe, present Cattle Mutilation: the Musical!, a quintessentially NW story of the generational divide, UFO sightings, and the search for bigfoot. But with puppets. Written by Josh Gross, directed by Katy Curtis, and with live music performed by Derek Deon and the Vaughns.
-------
Something is happening to the cows. They’re found in fields turned all about. Intestines on the out, and outsides in….
After a rash of cattle mutilations hits their small Oregon town, a rancher and his son set off into the woods to find the beast they’re sure is responsible: Bigfoot. Instead they find themselves in the middle of an intergalactic family dispute with potentially deadly consequences!
-See the first ever stage musical to tackle the hot topic of anal probing!
-See the two-headed beast of the Rogue Valley live and in-person!
-See if being good at video games is the same as having your flying saucer pilot’s license!
-See the swinging surf rock soundtrack performed by Derek Deon and the Vaughns!
-See cows finally strike back!
-AND MORE!
Cattle Mutilation: the Musical! (or Boner Pills From Outer Space!) was Puppeteers for Fears feature debut, and audiences have been begging for its return since the moment it closed. After three full seasons of ambitious new work and two west coast tours, PFF is finally giving in to the demand and bringing the show back, with a new cast, a more ambitious staging and a bonus song.
An expected combination of belly-laughs, heart, and catchy pop hooks you won’t be able to get out of your head, Cattle Mutilation: the Musical! is both a loving homage to campy pulp sci-fi, and something wholly original. This is the puppet rock musical about bigfoot you couldn’t have imagined you needed, because it was too bizarre for anyone besides Puppeteers for Fears to have dreamed up.
The show is 90 minutes long with one intermission, and features twelve surf-rock and space-jazz inspired songs written by Josh Gross, and performed by indie-soul darlings, Derek Deon and the Vaughns. It will be performed at various venues throughout Southern Oregon in spring, and then go on a west coast tour during the summer.
Cattle Mutilation: The Musical was written and composed by Josh Gross, and directed by Katy Curtis. It stars Reece Bredl, Hunter Prutch, Lauren Taylor, Alex Giorgi, and Forrest Gilpin. Music will be performed by Derek Deon and the Vaughns, who will also perform a brief opening set of their original material in place of recorded house music before the show. The cast soundtrack will be available for purchase at all performances.

Bourgeois Mystics
The Dip
1730 California St
Redding, CA 96001 Map
Doors 8PM | $7 Advance Tickets | $10 Day of | 21+ w/ Valid ID
Bourgeois Mystics is a for-profit, personal growth cult and “genre-defying dance party waiting to explode,” headquartered in Austin, TX. Founded in late 2014 by four acquisitive ascetics, they slowly bloomed into a multi-national sonic powerhouse, focusing their expressive musical talents on a completely original sound reminiscent of the abstract wit of MF DOOM, zany cheesiness of The B-52's, epic arrangements of Ennio Morricone, and funky grooves of Jamiroquai, all culminating in a distinct sound that’s been described as “Zappa meets OutKast”.
In addition to their success amassing disproportionate amounts of wealth by running a massive click-farm operation using state of-the-art mechanized-chicken labor on their 38-acre commune in Buda, TX, the band has been recognized for their virtuosic musicianship & songwriting as well as their live shows, “an absurdist splatter of funk-rock, hip-hop, and jazz” that "sets audiences ablaze with their psychedelic Monty Python tongue-in-cheek humor and bombastic energy". Other career highlights include sharing bills with George Clinton & Grupo Fantasma, their runners-up recognition in the 2018 Austin Music Awards, winning the "Keepin' It Weird Award" at the 2018 Austin Music Video Fest for their wild take on the Bollywood classic, "Jaan Pehechan Ho", and their prestige as a current top 4 finalist in consideration for a $25,000 grant from The Recording Conservatory of Austin.
This August, the band celebrates the release of their latest single, "The Most Spiritual", a slammin' dance-funk, holier-than-thou hip-hop banger, by embarking on "The Most Spiritual Tour" (very likely to be the highest-vibrational musical road show in all the western half of the material realm of the United States in August of 2019), with anchor dates in Seattle, Chicago, and Petaluma as the Lagunitas Beer Circus house band.
