Double Feature Records Release Party for My Robot Friend: My Robot Friend, Cheval Sombre (With Special Guests), DJ Set by Dean Wareham
Friday Oct 2, 2009 (9pm–midnight)
$12.00
Double Feature Records presents Soft-Core, the first US release by My Robot Friend. My Robot Friend is a musical and performance art project born from the ashes of the late '90s NYC band Princess, which almost signed on to the legendary label Too Pure (P.J. Harvey, Stereolab) but broke up just in time. My Robot Friend performs in an elaborate light-up suit while interacting with illuminated objects, wireless video cameras and pyrotechnics. Think lovechild of a three way between Devo, Laurie Anderson....and a robot.
The night will also feature a set by Double Feature Records artist Cheval Sombre, plus some very special guests.
Double Feature Records is a new label started by Dean Wareham and Britta Phillips. Dean formed seminal indie bands Galaxie 500 and Luna. Britta played bass in Luna for the final 5 years.
