Description
Saturday, July 4
KRIS DEELANE
7 p.m. | Free | 21 and Over
Raised in suburban Los Angeles during the punk rock era and subsequent musical revolution of the late 70s/early 80s, Deelane's influences were diverse -- from The Beatles and Neil Young to The Pretenders, X, and The Plasmatics (Wendy O. Williams was a favorite). The sense of righteous defiance coupled with a tragic flair resonated in her, and continues to inform her music, art and style.
Deelane started her music career in college as keyboardist and singer in an Andrew Sisters-meets-B52's group called Alice, I Wonder. In 1990, she toured the Soviet Union in a production of Fiddler on the Roof. When she got back to LA, she got behind the drums for the first time in the band Slaughterhouse 5 and played bass in the ska band Timeboy. Deelane went on to sharpen her songwriting and guitar skills on many tours with the nationally-acclaimed acoustic duo Adam + Kris. She took a break from the duo in 2000 to play guitar, and percussion on tour with a reggae group that included the legendary Fully Fullwood, Rock Deadrick and Jawge Hughes. In SweetJuice, Deelane has, at one time or another, played guitar, bass AND drums.
