Bear Mountain Picnic, Animatic, Jen Wilke, Lucio Menegon July 26, 2007

The Dreamland Theater presents an evening of indie rock pop folk whatever musics featuring:

Bear Mountain Picnic (Ypsilanti, Mich.)
"Homespun indie rock with a feel that skews toward roots; this isn’t surprising, since BMP reference Dylan in their name but are certainly very excited about the new Shins record, too. It also seems to make sense that these guys hail from Ypsilanti — there’s something about their mismatched cotton work shirts and slight flair for the absurd that screams college town party crasher. And that’s all right with us." - Metro Times Detroit

Animatic (Ypsilanti, Mich.)
"A simple band Straight from the rocks, snows, beaches, docks and groves of Marquette at the apex of the Upper Peninsula of Michigan's rag tag social racket .... came Animatic. Concerned with the Way Within. The innerself. The animalistic slow spasms of a musician's .... passive progression. Not perfect. Sloppy. Yet, In particular moments, deep and tight. At other times, catchy and overly simplistic or unervingly mello. Amatuer in nature." - animatic

Jen Wilke (Ypsilanti, Mich.)
"Jen Wilke brings her songs forth with a genuine playfulness that'll grab your ADD attentions and take 'em for imagination rides in warm summer story lands." - Bare Wire Technologies

Lucio Menegon (San Francisco, Cali.)
"Lucio Menegon is an artist and a manipulator of all things sonic. He confesses to sometimes feigning rock 'n' roll cool at the front of the stage and sometimes screaming, "Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain!" He has appeared on over 25 recorded releases, and has engineered and produced at least that many." - Fire Ballet 2007
