This just in!
The illustrious, synergistic, biggest rock star to ever hit Chinese soil, virtuosic pianist/singer/composer Natti Vogel will be opening up Friday, 12/17, @ 6pm. My cello and I will be joining him for some tunes. Here is his website: http://nattivogel.com/blog/
You would be crazy to miss him. His performances in NYC are often exclusive and few and far between, Chinese super star that he is...

Festival Schedule
The Friday Night Super Coda is a weekly experimental cabaret curated by Valerie Kuehne (http://www.myspace.com/valeriekuehne) and hosted by Cafe Orwell (247 Varet St., Brooklyn, NY 11206). Every Friday evening unexpected genres collide, and lucky audiences are exposed to the very newest of new musical ensembles and experiments.
We are therefore pleased to present the first annual Super Coda Festival. Over the course of four transfigured nights (December 16-19th), we will feature the most theatrical and experimental of performers to grace our stage thus far, with new faces interspersed. While celebrating Brooklyn musicians first and foremost, there will also be performances by out of town and touring musicians vying to throw you geographical curve-balls. Additionally, there will be installations by a performance artist on 12/16 (Oliver Warden, Untitled Box) and projection artist. So without any further ado...
...here's who plays and listen (or don't listen). Perhaps you've heard them before, and you already know they're playing here. In which case you don't need to be reading this. I agree, you shouldn't be reading this. If it was my world you would all come one come all to the festival not knowing anything about anyone and happy to be here. It'd be a gigantic surprise for you. So listen, I say listen when it's time to hear. (Here's also the times, and they are set, but come and you'll forget about the times):
