Come check out Bonnie Baxter at North-east Kingdom on Wednesday December 17th @ 10pm sharp. Opening the show with his 8-bit video game sounds will be GDFX (Greg Fox of Teeth Mountain/Family Of Love/Liturgy). Following is Bonnie Baxter with their intense psychedelic ethereal sound of shimmery guitars and wet vocal layers. And to bring the night to a close with his vintage Vinyl set will be DJ Russula (Bassist from Asa Ransom). Should be a great night.

Bonnie Baxter performing in front of a small crowd with video artist Chris Medina at The Northeast Kingndom Lounge in Bushwick on November 8th. Here is what The Sky Report had to say:
“With a short, but intense set, Bonnie Baxter impressed the intimate crowd at NK Lounge with a menagerie of hallucinatory guitars, wafting vocals and experimental beats. Baxter’s crystalline voice has a distinctive, melancholy quality that seamlessly pulls you into the band’s haunting and languorous dreamscape of dark beauty. I was really taken with their delicate, but big sound and their astounding talent.” - Read Full Review from The Sky Report

Sigmund Droid woke up the crowd on friday night with a racuous set. The heavy handed set was the perfect opening treat for the Williamsburg crowd, who then later enjoyed melodic orchestrations by the talented Takka Takka and the heavy favorites The Albertans. These photographs were taken at the show by photographer Josh Wehle. To view the entire set please visit his flickr page.
The Albertans will be in New York promoting the release of their EP “Sex With an Angel.” Visit their site to get further dates.
The beautiful artsy playground will be hosting Sigmund Droid this friday October 10th along with two other great bands. Sigmund Droid plays with the talented Albertans, who have come cross country from the beautiful land of Vancouver to shower us with the sounds of tomorrow. Lead by Joel Bravo, The Albertans were a New York favorite when they resided her last year (Known as Sex With An Angel back then). Don’t miss Takka Takka, they’ll be perfectly sandwhiched in there.
The first official Toilet Records show was extremely successful. We had a night filled with amazing sets by Fiasco, Asa Ransom, Snake Say Hiss, Dynasty Electric and Sigmund Droid. The crowd packed the floors, dripped sweat, and committed to five full hours of live music. We will be uploading images as they come, for now you can check the image pool for more images. Here are some…
