Christy & Emily, viBE SongMakers & Pterodactyl played Issue Project Room (pics) + more tour dates

February 15, 2010

Christy and Emily…

The viBe SongMakers is an advanced music/song creation program that accepts 4-6 underserved Brooklyn teenagers every year and gives them the tools they need to be tomorrow’s artistic and cultural leaders and revolutionaries. Writing, recording, and performing orginal songs with professional musicians helps empower these girls to communicate through music. Instruction in piano, songwriting, drum machine, music theory, and digital production helps the girls make the music; an introduction to business and entrepreneurial skills helps the girls market and distribute their CDs; then, the girls learn basic video and editing skills and create their own music videos. [Issue Project Room]

viBE SongMakers were accompanied by Christy & Emily, who also mentor the project, at Issue Project Room on Saturday, January 23rd. Other acts at the show were DJ Marcelle and psych-punk trio Pterodactyl. Some pictures from that event are in this post.

Christy & Emily are currently touring Europe. That’s where Pterodactyl travel this March, but not before playing a Febraury 28th show at Union Pool. More dates with the pictures, below…
