Tippy Canoe

Tippy Canoe is a ukulele slinging, sweetly singing, guitar wrestling, occasionally jesting, teasingly romantic, but may tickle with an antic, modern day performer.

Miss Canoe claims to be the alter ego of Michele Kappel, drummer of Sympathy For the Record Industry’s The Kirby Grips. She is also rumored to be a former member of the San Francisco Weekly Award nominated tin-pan alley troubadours The Frisky Frolics. This is somewhat suspect, but all reports appear to confirm this bold statement.

She earnestly puts forth sweet and sassy songs from the 1930’s depression era all the way up to the 2004 depression era including timeless and catchy originals. You may find her strumming at her local Oakland, California speakeasy or at a tattoo parlor in Mexico or on a New York street corner, it doesn’t matter- she knocks it out with equal abandon wherever she lands

Curtis Eller

"New York City's angriest yodeling banjo player"

There's a wretchedly elegant sarcasm and darkly burnished humor at work within Ell's songs; Eller is better than he lets on. Perhaps that's because he's spent most of his time playing at funerals and horse races with little more than tuba, accordion and upright bass behind him. No matter. Despite his hadlebar moustache and really old-school arrangements, Curtis Eller is more modern in his scope than a dozen glitchy laptoppers.
