Thank you for tuning in to Un-Herd Archive series episode 14. This show dates to Nov 23 2009. This program was originally shared with episode 13 featured performance Deeds. Now its time for something totally different, the artist we call Soup Purse. Todd Dickerson, a performer and scholar of noise, a seer of visions, he is the man behind Soup Purse. He is nothing less than a fixture of the Portland noise scene and a respected fellow for that matter. His performance is more than sound, its divination. He borrows from the early surrealists in terms of method but not necessarily form. He also incorporates some spoken theatrical performance in to each show, but not in this program, oddly, perhaps he prefers an audience to feed from.
Alas we have arrived at Un | Herd Archive Episode number 13. This one includes two performances, the main show being that of an improvisational duet entitled, Deeds. And they are Brian Mumford on electric guitar and Un | Herd veteran, John Niekrasz on drums. The second portion of the show will be a 6 minute clip from one of my earliest programs featuring John again on drums and Seth Brown on Fender Rhodes piano, performing as Why I Must Be Careful. The prior goes back to November 23, 2009, and the latter goes back to November 24, 2008. I believe they were both debut performances; the prior was totally new and improvised; the latter was freshly composed. So please enjoy Deeds and Why I Must Be Careful.

Boys Without Toy, a Portland youth rock band, came to KBOO for a live set last Friday. Members of the band are: Otniel (17, vocals, bass, guitar) Avinoam (14, vocals, guitar, keyboard) Akiva (11, vocals, drums, guitar) Elisha (5, vocals, shaker, slide guitar)
However, tonight they played and acoustic set, without Elisha.
For a band moving from Tallahassee, FL, to Portland, OR, it helps to have influences ranging from The Avett Brothers to Talking Heads. Recent transplants to the Rose City, the Damn Dirty Apes were great enough to come into the KBOO studios and grace our late-night listeners with their Rock, Blues, Psychedelic fusion.
KBOO is happy to offer the night's performance in its entirety, at the Free Music Archive.
From the college town bars of San Luis Obispo, California, comes the band Still Time: a blues-rock band reminiscent of Ben Harper and Dave Matthews Band.
The band is now making select singles available to KBOO and the Free Music Archive.
You can grab the music here, and find more information about the band at their website.
