A DeeJay that graduated to presenter at the Night Shift Cafe, The Moon and the Tune Inn, New Haven Ct.
Many things have been said, but some of the best comments came from Thurston Moore, "River's Edge could been filmed there" another genius said, I was the best unknown promoter in the world. He was right, he knew I was riding a wild horse against the wind. The Naugatuck Valley loves Ozzy but determination and luck I managed to introduce influential Artists, from Sonic Youth, to Flaming Lips, Dinosaur Jr, Alex Chilton, Hubert Sumlin, and Bo Diddley. Even Pittsburgh, The Cynics, Aus Rotten, Anti-Flag, The Frampton Brothers, and Amy Rigby played there to appreciative fans. Matador Records called the Night Shift Cafe. "the Filmore of Connecticut". The Moon, staged the only Connecticut appearance of Nirvana. The Tune Inn, ran the longest out of the three, from 1992 to 2002, the best of the east for punk, ska, hardcore, garage, blues, folk, and indie rock. Awarded seven years in a row as "The Best Alternative Live Music Venue in CT" New Haven Advocate. The place to find Kerouac and Ginsberg aficionados, which didn't make the cops any friendlier.
Other things I do:
I run Elevator Music a record label with releases on CD and vinyl, give a listen and share it with your lovers and friends.I represent in the US, the one and only Tav Falco and Panther Burns, Les Baton Rouge, Bunnyranch, and the latest Oddball, The Legendary Tiger Man, an inspiring one man band touring the US.later this year.

REEVES GABRELS AND HIS IMAGINARY FRIENDS
Reeves Gabrels, Grammy-nominated guitarist/songwriter/producer best known for both his work with David Bowie and his aggressive guitar style that combines the visceral energy of rock, the harmonic sophistication of jazz, the emotional honesty of blues and country, and an ear for the unusual. An evil genius of atonal improvisation on stage Gabrels explores sonic extremes with a great, adaptive intuition for what each song needs most. He shows that his limitless technical and compositional skills can still shine without restraint.
