A dreamy, dark, bourbon-soaked show full of fire and attitude, Patti Plinko 5 Stars– Time Out Following the success of their self-released album Bohemian Suicide gaining critical acclaim with sell-out shows around Europe, manic chanteuse Patti Plinko and her Boy are poised for continued success. Patti’s mesmerizing, seductive throaty vocals flirt amongst a fusion of music and cinematic influences from twisted guitars, violins, beaten pots and whisky bottles to experiments in vinyl and sound. |
| Die Roten Punkte |  Die Roten Punkte (The Red Dots) are Berlin's Prince and Princess of Indie Rock. Fans of Spinal Tap and Flight of the Conchords, say 'Hallo' to your new favourite band! Following sell-out shows in Sydney, Montreal and Edinburgh, the utterly dysfunctional siblings Otto and Astrid Rot touch down in New York to celebrate the release of the hit single, "Ich Bin Nicht Ein Roboter (I Am A Lion)" from their highly acclaimed album “Super Musikant”. Described as "a lipstick-smeared, tantrum-loving, sonic collision between B52s, Kraftwerk and early Ramones", Die Roten Punkte are truly unique. Their songs are ridiculously infectious and their live show is one of the most irreverent and hilarious gigs you are ever likely to see. -The Gazette, Montreal

| Taylor Mac in Concert: The Ziggy Stardust Meets Tiny Tim Songbook |  While praising Taylor Mac for his ukulele-playing and gender-bending performances, over 20 international publications have, of their own volition, described Mac as, 'Ziggy Stardust meets Tiny Tim'. Being a queen who can take a hint, he has decided to write and perform an original conversation about the comparison, while singing Tiny Tim songs and David Bowie's entire Ziggy Stardust album. It promises to be a concert unlike any other.

| Songs My Mother Never Taught Me |  A one-woman musical memoir written and performed by Deborah Karpel. The classically-trained singer/ storyteller unearths hilarious and haunting stories from the fringes of her family’s fractured history and weaves them together to reveal a unique and cohesive identity. An acclaimed singer of opera, Yiddish songs and the American songbook, Karpel gloriously interprets over a dozen songs to illustrate her deeply personal journey. Songs My Mother Never Taught Me spans most of 20th century America, yet brings fresh life and a contemporary touch to the cultural richness that is the American experience. |
| Woody Sez |  A celebration of the music and words of America's greatest
ballad-maker, who inspired Bob Dylan, John Mellencamp, the Indigo
Girls, Billy Bragg, and many more. Guthrie's songs are combined with
articles he wrote for the leftist newspaper The People's World to
create a portrait of a real American hero who fought for the underdog.
