Lovely Little Girls - Poor Fitted Boys/Pressed Face Downwards/I'm So Good Looking!

Here is a video of our performance at the Empty Bottle on Friday- a two camera shoot of a suite of songs: Poor-Fitted Boys/Pressed Face Downwards/You Fuck Me Anyway. I am very excited about this fantastic lineup that features guitarist Jim Cooper (Detholz!), keyboardist Jon Beavo (Hot Garbage), drummer Charlie Werber (Guzzlemug, Murmur), saxophonist Cory Bengtsen, and backup singers Carmen Armillas (Cheer-Accident) and Sacha Mullin. Our next show is at Cobra Lounge with Arriver on January 13th.

Fatty Jubbo & Friends - I'm So Good Looking

Here is some footage of our show the other night at Club Sashay. Expect more musical excitement soon!

Fatty Jubbo at Club Sashay Tonight!

Club Sashay is a project from Drew Ziegler and Randal Bailey where they transform a space into their aesthetic and claustrophobic garbage pile. This time Club Sashay takes place at Reversible Eye gallery (1101 N. California) and I will be performing within the aggregated shambles. This is my first musical performance in a couple years and it is the 'soft-premiere' of the music Alex Perkolup and I have been working on for, uh, the last couple years.



Also performing tonight: Forced into Femininity, Phrogclock and Fancy Space people. Fancy Space People feature Don Bolles from the Germs and Nora Keyes from the Centimeters. It's a glam rock supergroup.



Drew and Randal will also be performing their absurdist DADA garbage-opera TANKKBOX VS TURTLE POWDER. I missed the premier of it this last summer but I heard it's an orgasmic train wreck.



Here are more pictures of the installation that I took when I stopped by the gallery yesterday...






Show starts at 9pm! Reversible Eye is at 1101 N. California in Chicago! Formal wear required!

I'm So Good Looking

In order to take a much needed respite from writing weird and complicated music with Alex Perkolup, I decided to fart out the most absurd and simple turds I can muster. This is a song called I'm So Good Looking...it's a fucking pop song! and a rap song! Alex farted out the extremely catchy chorus and odd-timed bass line. Virginia Montgomery does some avant-garde diva jibber-jabber towards the end. Wait...I thought this was a pop song! It is! It is! Trust me!

The Cake & Polka Parade Podcast with Fatty Jubbo

I produce an hour-long bi-weekly (usually) podcast for WFMU. If you are a fan of avant-garde, strange, sometimes incompetent but always genius forms of music, you will like it. 20th century classical, metal, sound poetry, no-wave, prog, children's records, thrift store finds, found audio, old rap, field recordings and world music...if it's alien and odd, I like it, I play it. As a commenter on itunes said, "[CP&P] unifies the goofball side of the avant-garde...think Monty Python's version of Godard and Russell." I am trying to find the missing link between Celtic Frost and Herb Alpert.
