Current mood: fascinated
FOR IMMEADIATE RELASE: 7/01/2008 SUBJECT: Kirkwood Ballers Club finds a new home. DATE OF EVENT: August 7, 2008 MEDIA INQUIRIES: randy@tightbros.net PHONE: 404.373.6919
Kirkwood Ballers Club is proud to announce The Highland Inn Ballroom Lounge as the new home for Atlanta's weekly left of center open mic night beginning Thursday August 7, 2008. Established in 2004, Kirkwood Ballers Club has long been a weekly staple for Atlanta's more adventurous musicians. Over the course of almost 5 years KBC has been housed at 3 locations: a private residence in Kirkwood, the old Lenny's Bar, 11:11 Teahouse and now the Highland Inn Ballroom Lounge.
Tight Bros Network, the producer of this long standing event, promises to keep the quality of participation as high as possible and will bring a variety of eclectic touring artists to perform on occasion. KBC's new location is in a hotel setting, so performers must be respectful at all times of the guests and keep the volume at an acceptable level.
Kirkwood Ballers Club's mission is to moderate weekly free-form musical exchanges, ideas and performance art between evolving cast of experimental minded Atlanta area musicians and performance artists in an effort to encourage creative live performance and foster greater artistic community.
" When I started Kirkwood Ballers Club in March 2004, my intent was to provide an open forum for experimental musicians and performance artist who found it difficult to get shows here in town. I also wanted to create an idea incubator of sorts to allow others to perform and experiment with each other musically in an effort to create and nurture new creative ensembles." --Randy Castello founder of KBC and Tight Bros Network

*****************************
KBC is rolling into September and is now going late-night with Zano as your host selector for the evening beginning at 10pm til 2am every Thursday at the Highland Inn Ballroom Lounge. His set will extend after the conclusion of Kirkwood Ballers Club performances which usually end around 12:00am. He killed it last week and will soldier on as KBC's official DJ until fatigue sets in and he can no longer go on. If last week is any indication of what's to follow, then the Highland Inn will surely be the spot for Thursday night party goers seeking to relax along side shitty turntables spinning dub minimalism and funk on vinyl owned by Zano, who has a ton of diverse shit to keep it lively in the club all night. This event is free and will host a variety of a who's who in the art of turntablism or lack thereof every week through December 2008.
