hi there,

below is the line-up for tomorrow's womens performance night at the
hemlock tavern. the show starts at 8:00pm (not 9:00pm).

Featuring: Kitten on the Keys, Frederique and Christina (Romani
Urban Tribal Belly Dance), Liana Allday (Madera Road), Priscilla
Ederle, Katy Davidson (Dear Nora) and Carrie Bradley (Breeders, Ed's
Redeeming Qualities, 100 Watt Smile)

Here's the order for the night:

Belly Groove; a modern twist on an ancient dance. Inspired by the
movements and music of the Middle East, FREDERIQUE DAVID and
CHRISTINA MARTINEZ present to you their vision of belly dance. Fluid
slow technique, fast break beats and drum solos, spins and drops;
it's always a fresh show when these two women hit the stage. Come
watch...and be mesmerized!

Suzanne Ramsey, AKA pianist and chanteuse KITTEN ON THE KEYS ,writes
naughty ditties that will tickle your funnybone and stir your
nethers! Her vaudevillian musical shenanigans won her the SF Weekly
Music Award for New Genre/Beyond in 2003. Her 3rd CD ,on her own Rug
Burn Records San Francisco, " (It's not a) Pretty Princess Day", is
due out late spring! www.suzanneramsey.net

LIANA ALLDAY (Madera Road) can't finish a song in one sitting.
Somewhere in the gray area between indecisivness and A.D.D. is a
trapdoor that she falls through right after completing a verse. Lucky
for you the songs are all written by the time you come to see her
play. Liana Allday will say Carol King if you say Linda Ronstadt. She
will say Leonard Cohen if you say Rod McKuen. She will say Mark David
Chapman if you say Sirhan Sirhan.

PRISCILLA EDERLE is a spunky and fresh new female voice with songs
evoking bittersweet images coupled with quirky, original, pop/rock
melodies. Her unique blend of musical moods ranging from in-your-face
to soft-around-the-edges to neurotic-grooviness will leave your head
spinning in a daze.

"Dear Nora (aka KATY DAVIDSON) makes pop music for those days when
leaving the house seems overambitious and your bedroom window is the
only link to the outside world."
SF Weekly

"CARRIE BRADLEY's (The Breeders, Ed's Redeeming Qualities, 100 Watt
Smile) songs are beautiful, whimsical, shiny on the outside, but
with something lurking underneath them-something not so always nice,
not so pretty like, say, the truth. Carrie's songs are charming and
whimsy-filled, but they're also real -- genuinely dosed with reality,
sarcasm and a sweet cynicism."

AND We got a little something in the SFBG calendar section:

Femme power Two years ago a series of all-female performers took
center stage at various Bay Area venues. 'Women's Performance Night
No. 18' is the latest lineup. The evening's hodgepodge of show-and-
tell begins with modern belly dancing set to fast breaks and drum
solos performed by duo Frederique and Christina. Suzanne Ramsey's
Kitten on the Keys creates music on toy piano, accordion, or ukulele;
she also steps up the sex factor by romping around in stilts, wearing
edible panties, and wielding whips and feather ticklers. Most of the
night, however, is an intimate affair with straightforward acoustic
rock performed by Priscilla Ederle, Southern ballads sung by Cathy
Rivers, angst-pop by Dear Nora (Katy Davidson), and hard-edged tunes
wrapped in a sweet veneer by former Breeders member Carrie Bradley. 8
p.m., Hemlock Tavern, 1131 Polk, S.F. $6. (415) 923-0923. (Stephanie
