Greetings Aural Magazine #13
Saturday, June 9th at 8pm Greetings Magazine celebrates the release of aural issue #13 at the Bowery Poetry Club with a concert/reading featuring poets Jacqueline Waters, Danny Rivera, and magazine editor Jeffrey Joe Nelson. Bands Legends and Drachein are also scheduled to perform, as well as experimental musicians John Clair and Jed Shahar.
Greetings Magazine, a ten-year-old literary magazine, is primarily published as a limited-edition, handmade CD of live music and poetry performances. This issue includes performances by comedian Nick Kroll, R&B tandem Simone and Blaze, hip-hop master MC Extra-Cheese, and poets David Cameron, Paul Killebrew, and Cliff Fyman. The Allman Brothers, Bill Evans, and the double-dutch jumping, bike-pumping children of Brooklyn also make cameos. All attendees will receive copies of the CD.
In the past two years alone, Greetings has been proud to host a diverse group of musicians: Adam Matta, Julianne Carney, The Woes, Sabir Mateen, Val Geffner, Danny Erker (of the Cobble Hillbillies), Bryan Eubanks, Blaise Siwula, Warslut, John Clair, Spin 17, and Marina Rosenfeld. In the same time period the magazine has published the work of writers Bob Holman, Filip Marinovich, Matvei Yankelevich, Julien Poirier, Geoffrey Cruikshank-Hagenbuckle, James Hoff, Stan Apps, Michael Ruby, Eddie Berrigan, Phil Cordelli, Dustin Williamson, Steve Dalachinsky, Yuko Otomo, Micah Ballard, Stan Apps, Vanessa Place, Harold Abramowitz, Joseph Mosconi, Ilya Bernstein, Ara Shirinyan, and Mathew Timmons.
As always the editors encourage musicians, writers, and entertainers to submit works and proposals for the next issue and/or reading in person at the show.
