This installment of Dime Dailies finds itself resting in the progressively nostalgic nook of Nouveau Music, as we listen to the monstrous melodies of Ben Carson:
Z serves me a rumrunner and Dietra and I share a club sandwich with fries, using our bev naps for dinner napkins. We ride to Midtown and veg at Tim’s place on 11th, until they depart for a birthday party in Marietta. Then I walk into the night.
As a child, I always loved stories. My favorite ones were the ones like “The Wizard of Oz” or “Alice In Wonderland”. A child escaping her humdrum town and landing in a magical world of the bizarre and mystifying all while having the absolute time of their lives with some seedy and unique characters. Fadia Kader’s CMYK show hosted by Atlanta based musician, Bosco was just that for me, except I’m not sure if Alice or Dorothy were offered PBRs during the duration of their adventures.
I see in color. And all my artist friends see in color too. So Bosco‘s upcoming ‘CMYK’ monthly design & music showcase makes much sense. We were asked to pick two artists to represent Art Nouveau. We chose Ben Carson & Universal Kingdom.
We told you we had something big planned for Art Nouveau Magazine’s three year anniversary. Feb 24, at the Deefor Centre in Atlanta, Celebrate this Brand of Insanity with us and a few special guests. For the first time, Theophilus London will travel all the way from his home of Brooklyn, NY to bless Atlanta with his signature mix of old school soul and electro hip-hop. The event also features bass infused DJ sets by GreatEclectic, Ethereal & Savvy Society, pop up performances by Tendaberry, RAHBI, BOSCO, A Ware, Corinne Stevie, theDOLLDAZE, Micah Freeman, Vina Mills, Jay Scott & Ben Carson, live art by Paper Frank and Sean Fahie and GAS Up Radio’s Guy Anthony as the host for the night. With all that and free drinks from 9-10 PM courtesy of Tree of Life you’ll want to get there early.
Tickets for Art Nouveau’s Anniversary Party are on sale now. Tickets are $10 in advance and $15 at the door. Please visit www.an-mag.com/3 to purchase tickets. Accept the Nouveau.
