GROUND UPS
HERCULANEUM
BASILICA

HERCULANEUM is comprised of members of Chicago's Icy Demons, Head of Femur, and Cursive.  Their seven-piece jazz band takes you through the most unimaginably cool licks, groovy lopsided rhythms, and sincere confessionals, all the while executing it with authentic jazz character.

BASILICA is Bloomington's carefully-guarded destabilizing force.  They share their engaging vision of our surreal world through spectacular arcs of violin melodies, serpentine guitar harmonies, jet-propelled rhythms, and dazzling video projections.   www.myspace.com/basilicaproject

GROUND UPS are a glorious train wreck of eclectic influences.  Their impressions of jazz, twelve-tone, Balinese, and musique concrete are performed with raging expression, creating a dark scribble of noise-rock/ trash-jazz drums, saxophone, trumpet, and vocals.  www.fmsmprc.com
