Paul Wallfisch, curator of The Big Small Beast, on Morricone Youth

FREEING THE BIG SMALL BEAST WITHIN.

Small Beast is a music salon curated and hosted by the singer/pianist Paul Wallfisch. Small Beast presents "an eclectic mix of the world's most creative performers and songwriters… and aims to become the New York vortex of an ephemeral, international scene where artists and listeners alike can come together for a song, an evening, a residency, and all forms of creative experimentation." And that’s excellent.

Wallfisch is a piano man, erstwhile co-conspirator with Firewater, Congo Norvell, Love and Rockets and many others, currently leads the band Botanica, and functions as Alt/Dub/CabaDiva Little Annie’s sidekick.

He’s also going to appear live in the booth on Morricone Youth, to play new music and get us up to speed on The Big Small Beast. It’s happening this Sunday, May 16, at 2PM ET.

Lapis Lazuli (aka Kurt Wolf of Pussy Galore) on M. Youth!

Morricone Youth, this Sunday May 9 - join DJ Gray Dolores as he converse with and spins the music by and favorite soundtrack selections of Lapis Lazuli! 

Lapis Lazuli is a solo instrumental project written, produced, and performed by Kurt Wolf on laptop, guitar, and analog synth.

Kurt Wolf is known for his contributions to downtown noise rock acts Pussy Galore, Boss Hog, Loudspeaker, Emma Peel, Foetus Inc.

Kurt Wolf was given the name by his good friends Antony and the Johnsons, hence the brand.

Lapis Lazuli music exists in kind of a parallel universe were soundtrack composers dominate the later part of the 20th century musical landscape.

A warped vision of what music from the era may have sounded like minus the utopian hippy hegemony of the late sixties and early seventies.

John Epperson/Lypsinka vs. M. Youth - The Rematch

This past November the fabulous Mr. John Epperson visited Morricone Youth and chatted with DJ Gray Dolores about films, film music, drag, drag queens and his ultra-glamorous-monstrous-alter ego, the mighty Lypsinka.

In fact Gray Dolores and he had such a good time and spent so much time yakking, the two were only spin a smidgen of the horde of brilliant/obscure soundtracks LP's Mr. Epperson brought to the station.

A rematch was threatened and said rematch is on!

Join Mr. Epperson and Gray Dolores as they spin a musical web of soundtrack glamour, terror, thrills and chills - this Sunday, March 14 from 2 to 4 p.m. (EST)

(And make sure to check out Mr. Epperson in concert at the world famous Birdland - as part of the Broadway at Birdland series - Sunday, March 21 at 6 p.m.!

Jim Caruso is proud to announce that John Epperson will be in concert at Birdland on Sunday, March 21 at 6pm.  This event is part of the Broadway at Birdland concert series, showcasing stars and composers from the Great White Way.

 

In a rare New York appearance, John Epperson (The Artist Principally Known As Lypsinka) appears as himself – without ladies’ finery – at the piano, singing in his own voice, and sharing an anecdotal interview with host Jim Caruso.  The evening promises to be a combination of a Victor Borge presentation, crossed with an “Inside The Actors Studio” discussion.  Epperson will share with the audience some of his favorite songs from the worlds of theatre, movies and pop.  If you miss this show, you’ll have to answer to Lypsinka!
