Angelo: Barista / Rock Star

Root Hill maybe taking a break soon, but our infamous barista Angelo is keeping himself busy with the release of his band's new double single. His Brooklyn-based group, Sick Cell, plays to adoring fans frequently throughout the city at places like Littlefield, Cameo Gallery, and The Delancey. Next Magazine says that Sick Cell "has a sort of darkly mesmerizing quality to it that command[s] the rapt attention of...rowdy downtown misfits". It's a wonder how Angelo manages to crank out drinks each morning with his late night rock star life!

Here's one of the new songs off Sick Cell's new double single, Motionless.

Hide Inaba Aug 11th @ 7:30p

Born and raised in Chiba, Japan, Hide began singing at the age 15. He wanted to play bass in a band, but his high school friends urged him to step up to the mic because nobody else had the nerve to sing. Through the years, Hide stepped out on his own as an artist, cultivating his love for singing as the ultimate expression of love and passion. He composes various styles of music from Jazz, bossa nova to Hip hop, pop, R+B or even ambient techno.

Photo's from Sunday's Trash Pony Science: Boobs!

If Saturday night wasn't wonderful enough, then surely Sunday's event made this weekend the best one ever! Mermaid Hawley stopped back by to give a talk on BOOBS! Wondrous, Magical and Everywhere! Painter Angela depicted expressive pictures as Mermaid Hawley told of personal events relating to her chest. And with the assistance of anthropologist Cricket, Mermaid Hawley literally revealed various brassiere she owned. Check out the photos below...
