ANDREW & THE HIMSELVES, solo/acoustic, this sunday @ canal street


LATE BREAKING NEWS:

this sunday, november 16, everyone's favorite duo, those masters of three-part harmonies, the ANDREW & THE HIMSELVES quartet, will be performing solo at the canal street tavern as part of the bar's decades old & much fabled "songwriters in the round" series.

the show gets started at about 8:00. i'm not sure about the cover charge but it's probably not more than a few bucks.


the arrangement is pretty cool - kind of in the tradition of the old greenwich village coffeehouse shows back in the early sixties.
there are three or four songwriters on stage and they take turns performing about four or five songs each. occasionally they will also intersperse their performances with spontaneous and witty repartee *at no additional charge*. it's really intimate and crap.

for a sample of what you can expect this sunday, check out the acoustic debut of the gorgeous song "shitty teeth" from the "songwriters in the round" debut of ANDREW & THE HIMSELVES at:

it's the 4th song down on the right.

and by the way . . . wait until you hear the full ANDREW AND THE PRETTY PUNCHERS version of "shitty teeth." in keeping with the scatalogical motif i say: "'shitty teeth' . . . holy crap!"

great stuff indeed!

hopefully it will be coming soon to a CD near you [nudge nudge, wink wink]

but anyway - see you sunday!



[next ANDREW AND THE PRETTY PUNCHERS show: thanksgiving eve, wednesday the 26th, at the oregon express - more info coming soon!]
