@ Comfort Station Logan Square
2579 N Milwaukee Ave, Chicago, IL 60647
Opening Thursday, August 30th, from 7PM - 9:30PM
Comfort Music presents:
Marvin Tate/Aaron Shapiro + Spectralina
Spectralina is the audio-visual performance project of Dan Bitney and Selina Trepp; collaborators, lovers and magicians.
Marvin Tate’s music has for the past twenty years evolved around layered cacophony, dis-jointed/personal narratives, with lyrical nods, to blues, beat and existentialism. The outré Soul-man and cosmic crooner combines social upheaval, with dark humor and unapologetic imagery to create surreal/rban and everyday characters trapped in David Lynch-type vignettes.
Marvin Tate in his many incarnations (Poet, Talk-Show Host, Performance Artist, Time traveler, Soul Agitator, Singer-Songwriter and Funk-Meister) has worn many hats in his twenty-plus career. He often calls upon all of his alter-egos to help him discover new foundation, with help from musical guests including: Mike Reed,Greg Ward, Ben Lamar Gay, Tatsu Akoi, Dave Boykin, Matt L, Khari Lemuel (The Black Monks of Mississippi) Dan Bitney, Fred Lonberg Holms, P Michael (Ono), George Blaize (D-Settlement) Adam Fitz, Avery R. Young and Angel Bat Dawid to name a few. Tate will be joined by Chicago guitarist Aaron Shapiro.
