SUMMARY:Prince Rama
DESCRIPTION:Prince Rama is the musical duo of sisters Taraka and Nimai Larson. They have lived in ashrams\, worked for utopian architects\, written manifestos\, delivered lectures from pools of fake blood\, conducted group exorcisms disguised as VHS workouts\, installed art installations at The Whitney\, Art Basel and various galleries across the U.S. And now they return to Big Car April 9\, 8 p.m. at the Tube Factory artspace\, 1125 Cruft St. in the Garfield Park neighborhood on the south end of downtown. \nThey will perform Xtreme Now\, an album about extreme sports with Indianapolis-based The Icks opening for them. The cost of the performance is $10 and tickets can be purchased on-line (https://www.eventbrite.com/e/prince-rama-indianapolis-us-tour-the-icks-tickets-21012549100) or at the door. \nXtreme Now is the most extreme album Prince Rama has ever made. Writing for Xtreme Now began while the Larson sisters were living on a black metal utopian commune on Vȫrmsi\, a remote island off the coast of Estonia during the summer of 2012. There\, Taraka had a near death experience inside an ancient Viking ruin\, which sparked a recurring sense of time-schizophrenia\, or the physical sensation of existing in multiple time periods simultaneously. \nIn this case\, she experienced a joint-existence in both the medieval ages and the year 2067. In one of her prophetic visions she describes\, “In the year 2067\, I witnessed an aesthetic landscape where art museums are sponsored by energy drink beverages and beauty is determined by speed. I saw a vision of ancient tapestries stretched across half-pipes and people base-jumping off planes with the Mona Lisa smiling up from their parachutes. I saw art merge with extreme sports to form a new aesthetic language of ‘Speed Art.’ I realized that time travel was possible via the gateway of extreme sports\, and I wanted to make music that would provide the score.” \nPerceiving a great void in the world of extreme sports for music that could match the metaphysical intensity of these death-defying feats\, Prince Rama set forth to make Xtreme Now\, the first real foray by any musician to create a new “extreme sports genre.” For inspiration\, the sisters looked to their own flirtations with death and time-dilation\, along with countless hours of obsessively watching extreme sports videos and consuming dangerous quantities of Monster Energy drink. \nWorking with acclaimed dance producer Alex Epton of XXXChange (Gang Gang Dance\, Björk\, Spank Rock\, Panda Bear\, The Kills)\, the new songs take on a more powerful\, confident\, fierce\, infectious\, all-encompassing\, and accessible dance-club feeling than any other Prince Rama record – a fearless\, visionary pop tour de force for the ghost-modern era that celebrates the ephemerality of life\, dancing just at the edge of death’s gilded smile. \nAbout The Icks \nThe Icks utilize electricity to power their instruments. What if John Hughes directed Blade Runner? \nJohn Caldwell-guitar and vocals \nCameron Holloway-farfisa \nJoe Ferguson-bass \nAmanda Case-vocals \n$10 \nhttps://www.eventbrite.com/e/prince-rama-indianapolis-us-tour-the-icks-tickets-21012549100 \nThis concert is made possible by The Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts. About The Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts: The Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts was established in 1987.

SUMMARY:Flannelly's of the Future Festival
DESCRIPTION:To celebrate their marriage and the role music played in bringing them together\, artists Brelyn Gerard and John Flannelly organized an experimental music festival. Flannellys of the Future Festival will take place April 30\, 4-10 p.m. at Tube Factory artpace\, 1125 Cruft St. Several musical acts were part the formation of their relationship so the pair wanted to share the music with Indianapolis by means of a free concert. The bands that will be featured are: Bad Psychic (Bloomington)\, DJ Littletown\, Duncan Kissinger\, Exploding Head Scene (Philadelphia\, PA)\, Glitter Brains (Bloomington)\, Oreo Jones & Sirius Blvck\, Jeron Braxton & the Tamagotchis (Bloomington)\, Rev//Rev (Lafayette)\, Rob Funkhouser\, Sedcairn Archives\, Skything (Marlboro\, Vermont)\, Teen Brigade (Lafayette). \n“Both of us are the kind of people who strive to view life from as many angles as possible\, to feel from all those angles even if it means crawling around the floor of the house to feel the space usually reserved for our knees and ankles\, or chilling in the bathroom for a shift in perspective\,” says Gerard. \nMany of the musicians in the festival were part of Gerard and Flannelly falling in love. Flannelly’s music was the first time experimental music clicked for Gerard. “Sitting in our friend’s living room\, watching John deliver the experience of his art\, I had an ethereal space to sort through my feelings. It was a space that somehow managed to be safe and challenging at the same time\,” says Gerard. “After his set at Free House\, he threw the flower he’d been wearing on his vest to the audience. I seized it. To this day\, that flower still graces my bookshelf.” \nSoon after that\, on Valentine’s Day 2015\, Gerard and Flannelly enjoyed their first date — at the Fountain Square music venue Grove Haus. Gerard sang back up for the band Memory Foam. She found out that Flannely had toured with one of her favorite bands\, Shame Thugs\, and that he was in the music video for her favorite Sirius Blvck songs. Eventually\, Flannelly moved from Bloomington to Indianapolis into Gerard’s friend’s house. After a recommendation from their mutual friend\, artist Erin K. Drew\, Flannely got a job at the same place where Gerard worked. \n“Now\, we’re getting married and we’re doing it our way. With all the art projects in the community we’re involved with\, neither of us are interested in fussing over centerpieces and flowers. We want to celebrate our love by sharing the music we love\, made by the people we love\,” says Gerard. “We can’t wait to groove with Indianapolis at the Flannellys of the Future Festival!” \nGerard has a new book\, iForgot\, out and Flanney a new album\, Peace and Quiet now available. For their honeymoon after the festival celebration\, the two will travel the country to promote their works.
