So we’re happy to say the winter 2009 WIERD Live Series Schedule is nearly complete, a few more shows are in the works but the following performances are now confirmed, along with a few other gigs outside the weekly party…its going to be the coldest 3 months ever on the Lower East Side of NYC! The WIERD has long bemoaned the fact that above all the French have made some of the most elegant, refined, underappreciated popular compositions the world has ever known in the past 30 years, now you’ll have the pleasure of seeing 2 of the finest of the new generation of French Wave artists live that we’ve been spinning at the party for much of the past year as April brings the long-overdue WIERD French Invasion when we welcome the amazing Automelodi and Frank(just Frank) in back to back gigs 4/8 and 4/15!...VR:

This week WIERD proudly welcomes the return of Further Reductions who have a whole new set of as always rigorously restrained analogue electronic trax to unfurl in our foggy little Wednesday World…the comparisons of the lovely Katie Rose’s vocals to the young Malka Spigel or Ilona Prism seem imminent, if you’re all lucky maybe she and the frozen cold winds of her VRysterious flute will Further Reduce us all to the tiny fragile icicular souls we all undeniably are in the big WIERD World…how could you possibly resist it all???
Pieter and Glenn Spin Cold Wave and Minimal Electronic Music!
