Nanobangbang Comes Out with A Bang and Goes Pop Art


Nanobangbang's Deena Hyatt w/ friends The Liddell sisters (reading).

A Recap of The Parlor Show (Friday, July 11th) - Part Three

The conceptual vocal pop & elemental noise band fronted by Deena Hyatt debuted at The Parlor, just like she wanted, and we couldn't be more thrilled. The audience was entertained with the debut live performance of Nanobangbang, closing the show with a minimalist set inspired by - and covering - old pop standards. Hyatt has the pipes for it, and when she sang "To Know Him Is To Love Him", she wowed the younger and older generations in the supportive crowd. Not bad for a busy Friday night in the live music capital, huh?

Nanobangbang includes a rolling cast of talented locals: Chad A: (Low Red Center), Sam Gary (Night Viking), Winston Reed, and Eric Tierkunde. The visual as well as aural aspects of the show, from the Liddell sisters reading to the 45 record scratching by band mate Gary, added a conceptual and performance art aspect usually void in live music shows. Another band mate, Kevin Adickes, was notably absent due to a last-minute recording session with Moth!Fight!. I look forward to hearing him sing "Flutter & Bounce" with Hyatt live at their next show.

I've been in communication with Nanobangbang and decided to keep this post short in order to mention Hyatt's blog, which describes in vivid detail their first live performance - from the artist's perspective. I highly recommend reading it. I enjoyed it so much I added it to our favorite blogs list.

Nanobangbang debut recap

I wish I had a camera with a wider lens to capture a clip of the delightful vocal and visual performance. Or maybe someone will think to shoot a video. Maybe next time? Definitely.

FYI! Sam Sayre Vandelinder, Winston Reed Chapman, Chad Sterling Allen, and Deena Odelle Hyatt are all in a band called GAYLE GOLD who will debut at the End of An Ear record store the first or second weekend of August.

This is a realization of Sam Gary Barftit's music. Hey Fans, this show will be for his CD Release on Instinco Records. Gary's releasing the last recorded material of his lost band COBOFOOFAROO.

Thanks for more good music news. I've been a Gary Barftit fan since I heard him at Awthum Fetht. See you and the rest of GAYLE GOLD at End of an Ear!
