The Baker’s Basement
July 26 @ 7:00 pm - 11:00 pm
Cleveland indie folk duo the Baker’s Basement (tBB) features the eclectic musical stylings of vocalist/drummer Kate Dedinsky and vocalist/guitarist Adam Grindler. At their rhythmic core pulses an orange striped, homemade, bucket-drum concoction, the funky back beat on which Dedinsky performs standing up with both swagger and sway. The duo’s intimate sound, rooted in a whimsical flavor of indie folk music and topped with playful vocal layers often volleyed to-and-fro across the stage, offers a humorous yet heart-wrenching sonic signature that’s altogether their own.
A hidden gem of the midwest, tBB’s affectionate and direct spoken word vocal delivery bounces atop their unusual percussive foundation of odds & ends, a drum apparatus that the group calls the “Tempeh Kit”—when matched with Grindler’s acoustic & electric guitar methods, both finger picked and strummed, their playful and oscillating sound is solidified. Between songs, the duo endears themselves to their audience through storytelling and fond recollections of past creative experiments. All and all, a performance by this dynamic pair is an invitation into an intimate world of creative fancy and captivating chemistry nurtured over years of playing both stages and street corners.
Black Wolf & The Thief is a keyboard & percussion driven trio from Warren, OH with a funky, hard hitting, sound all of its own. The combination of Carolyn’s soulful, virtuosic voice & poetic lyricism and Clay’s aggressive, jazz-influenced piano playing makes a fresh blend of original music that marries the beauty of classical, the harmonies of jazz, & the hard edge of rock.
The keyboard driven trio fuses the sonic landscape of psychedelic rock bands like The Doors and Jefferson Airplane, with the more eclectic sounds of modern electronic bands like MGMT and Glass Animals, with the easy groove of r&b artists like Leon Bridges and Alicia Keys. With an undeniable influence of both 90s post punk and Romantic classical music, it’s certainly a unique sound — one that has been described as “the David Lynch of music.”
According to Earmilk.com, Kipani is an indie pop trio that breaks away from conventional music-making. They bring raw authenticity to the forefront with “Messy Room.”
