Great news: last night’s blitz photo exhibit was invited by the ownership of ‘The Building’ to keep hanging for a while. So the RORSHAK Tape Transfer series is up @ ‘The Building’ @thebuildingnash venue at least til May. Killer venue. 1008C Woodland Street, Nashville, 37206. Check local event listing to see when the doors may be open. They’re in a little room with a few big lights :)! and there’s a new, really far out piece: “high fashion ice fishing from the arctic circle” to make it worth your while. @katymaki @annaliisamaki
@ “The Building” behind Beyond The Edge, Five Points, east Nashville. 7 pm til ..?…—-the tape transfer series and a few other goodies along with a host of other artists’ great work.
An artist must project the very same ambivalent and dispassionately critical eye that one may use for assessing other artist’s work towards one’s own—-to see if it still passes the test of scrutiny and excels at stimulation.
Laws and Stacey Rushing+RORSHAK. Live Music+Tape Transfer Photo Exhibit+CD Release of The Gospel Cigar by Rory Rorshak. Ugly Mugs, 7-9 pm sharp. Saturday, March 24. FREE.
Stop in to ugly Mugs bohemian Mecca to soak in a performance of my new record, view the tape transfer photo series, and to fall in love with the sounds of Stacey and Laws Rushing. Bring a date or a friend! It’s free, and there’s great food, coffee and ice-cream nearby! Last night for the photo exhibit!
For ears and eyes belonging to people seeking stimulation: Do attend this early concert/cd release/photograph exhibit at Ugly Mugs on March 24 from 7 p.m until 9 p.m.
March Twenty Four: The final eve of the “RORSHAK Tape Transfer” series:
Its a series of portraits of artists and creative forces who deserve a salute. If you are a connoisseur of photography, prepare to lift one eye brow and to lean in close, trying to figure out how they were made. Photographs of tape transfers re-photographed and printed again, then sandwiched between sheets of glass?! Precisely. Its like sausage, don’t think about it, just enjoy it!
March Twenty-Four: Rory Rorshak’s CD Release of “The Gospel Cigar”:
Rory Rorshak will plug in to his 4 ten inch speakers with an old hollow body guitar and perform a live audio tour of his new CD “The Gospel Cigar”: a 3-act album composed of a cacophony of influences. Sit in for the show and Rory will brief you on the songs, the sounds, talk a bit about the recording, and play a few selections in vivid 3-D. Gospel Cigar Rock 101 is always in session at www.roryrorshak.com. Bring a friend to sit beside you who also enjoys pictures and music from a place left of the center.
Striking the first chords at 7 p.m. will be Stacey and Laws Rushing. Laws and Rory met in the year 2000 (echo), and ever since, the two have been keeping step with each other as friends and creative kin. Not only does Laws star in the photo exhibit currently on display at Ugly Mugs, he will leave you charmed and delighted with sound that’s got a weathered spiritual soul. When Stacey joins in, its hard to know where the spotlight belongs—so it just has to be focused wider. The two are a heavenly pair, and make terribly listenable tunes that require one’s personal attendance.
Mark the calendar.
Bring a friend.
Make it a special evening, you’ll go home early, with memories and something to talk about.
