Salutations from the great Northwest! There
have been new findings! I was at my local watering hole a few
weeks back and met this amazing lady named Kelli Corrado! She
is a guitarist in a band and teaches guitar to young ladies.
We have major six degress of seperation between us which we
discovered within five minutes! I won't get to deep into that
now, but I soon discovered that she fronts this wonderful band
Arkade! Which, just so happens I had been in contact
with the drummer Christopher Hydinger( also in Death By Doll),
to help set up some dates for him & Dame Darcy!
The show was held at the Crocodile Cafe' in
Bell town. For the last few weeks I have been
blissfully listening to their songs through myspace (http://www/myspace.com/arkade).
Really anticipating a live experience!
They had two guests members(added drums &
guitar) for the night that enchanted the mood even further!
Guitars that strummed echo's through the walls of this venue
were a sure treat! Inspiring vocals that seem to flow from
Kelli's soul with ease, Chris's subtle and not-so-subtle drums
add to this dreamy ambiance and at one point a rumble to keep
you on your feet! Niki Sugar is very Keen on the keys.Noises,
melodies and outlets- to -the- unknown seem to be his
specialty.
A refreshing experience, no gimmicks, no fancy
dancy attitudes just brutally honest melodies played in a
refreshingly raw flow!
