Where: Strega Lounge - 210 South Arlington, Reno
Eight pioneers of Reno's homegrown modern-art movement NadaDada Motel will be collaborating on a special program, Five Rooms at the Witch, during this year's edition of the controversial annual project.
The fourth annual exhibition of independent artwork, of which the only rule is no rules, will run Thursday, June 17, through Sunday, June 20. NadaDada Motel will infiltrate a number of establishments at the southwest and northwest edges of downtown along Arlington Avenue, including the historic El Cortez Hotel's Trocadero Nightclub.
In all, more than 100 local or visiting visual artists will show off their creations, says NadaDada Motel cofounder Dianna Sion. "We have a really, really strong arts community here in Reno," she says. People are being noticed now. NadaDada Motel is for any creative, artistic genius in any genre.
Most participating venues are for all ages. However bars will give admission only to people over 21.
A focal point of this year's event will be Strega Bar, 310 S. Arlington, where Sion and seven cohorts will display their contemporary visual works in an exhibit billed, Five Rooms at the Witch. Joining Sion will be David Dory, Amy Huffman, sk james, Alex Lemus, Trelaine Lewis, Nino Paternostro and Ashlee Stone. 5-RAW combines old-world techniques, pop culture, modern digitization, subliminal programming and human nature's innate lust for lust, Sion says. A Saturday-night bash will feature live music by local bands Crush and Merkin, DJ crew-Tonal Balance, and others. "It will stir the pot with a full-blown, free-entry, back-alley party," Sion says.
Each 5-RAW artist brings something unique to this witch's roundtable. Together, their work is a complementary union revealing insight into today's fast-paced culture and where it might lead us. NadaDada Motel has inspired articles in major publications such as the New York Times, and has attracted collectors from around the globe.
Adds artist David Dory: Art is the one thing that speaks to everyone. Art transcends time and ties us all together as the human race.
Says Sion: "5-RAW promises to make a mark on the entire art world."

Doodlebug: When hip-hop trio Digable Planets emerged in the early 90s, their memorable moniker raised eyebrows. The name sprang, they explained, from the notion that every individual is a planet. But the unique worlds that their tracks mapped out were not insular ones; as their Grammy-winning hit Rebirth Of Slick (Cool Like Dat)" would prove, the Planets were primed to connect with audiences weary of the aggressive posturing of gangsta rap.
Filled with literate lyrics, honey-smooth flow, and inventive arrangements, their albums redefined hip-hop, and set standards for the generation of soul poets and innovative producers that followed, as the new anthology Beyond The Spectrum: The Creamy Spy Chronicles effortlessly reiterates. The group first took shape in the early 90s, in New York City. Seattle resident Butterfly (a k a Ishmael Butler) hooked up with Philadelphia native Doodlebug (Craig Irving), who was a member of Philadelphia collective Dread Poets Society.
Like the name chosen for their band, the new handles each member adopted also reflected a universal consciousness. Insects stick together and work for mutually beneficial causes, Ladybug observed in Essence. Doodlebug added, Humans are supposed to be the most intelligent beings on the planet, and yet we can't seem to come together in a peaceful manner.Now working as Cee Knowledge, Doodlebug has been leading Philadelphia live hip-hop ensemble Cosmic Funk Orchestra since 2000.
Cherrywine is the new group from Ishmael Butler of the platinum selling, American music video award winning hip-hop group Digable Planets. Ishmael Butler was the lead MC, producer and main creative force for the group who experienced tremendous commercial success and critical acclaim throughout the 90's. He wrote and produced the top 20 single "Rebirth of Slick (Cool Like Dat)" whose fusion of jazz and rap is widely recognized as a seminal song in hip-hop history. Cherrywine represents a brave new form in hip-hop, melding 70's funk bass and guitar, 80's synth pop, the latest hip-hop- beats, and his unique lyrical delivery. The result is a one-of-a-kind sound that evokes Outkast, Parliament, Curtis Mayfield as well as Kraftwerk. Once again Ishmael has redefined the genre.
Together, Doodlebug and DJ Alex J have teamed up to create a underground hip hop review and will perform songs from their respective solo careers as well as Digable Planets classics!

Doodlebug: When hip-hop trio Digable Planets emerged in the early 90s, their memorable moniker raised eyebrows. The name sprang, they explained, from the notion that every individual is a planet. But the unique worlds that their tracks mapped out were not insular ones; as their Grammy-winning hit Rebirth Of Slick (Cool Like Dat)" would prove, the Planets were primed to connect with audiences weary of the aggressive posturing of gangsta rap.
Filled with literate lyrics, honey-smooth flow, and inventive arrangements, their albums redefined hip-hop, and set standards for the generation of soul poets and innovative producers that followed, as the new anthology Beyond The Spectrum: The Creamy Spy Chronicles effortlessly reiterates. The group first took shape in the early 90s, in New York City. Seattle resident Butterfly (a k a Ishmael Butler) hooked up with Philadelphia native Doodlebug (Craig Irving), who was a member of Philadelphia collective Dread Poets Society.
Like the name chosen for their band, the new handles each member adopted also reflected a universal consciousness. Insects stick together and work for mutually beneficial causes, Ladybug observed in Essence. Doodlebug added, Humans are supposed to be the most intelligent beings on the planet, and yet we can't seem to come together in a peaceful manner.Now working as Cee Knowledge, Doodlebug has been leading Philadelphia live hip-hop ensemble Cosmic Funk Orchestra since 2000.
Cherrywine is the new group from Ishmael Butler of the platinum selling, American music video award winning hip-hop group Digable Planets. Ishmael Butler was the lead MC, producer and main creative force for the group who experienced tremendous commercial success and critical acclaim throughout the 90's. He wrote and produced the top 20 single "Rebirth of Slick (Cool Like Dat)" whose fusion of jazz and rap is widely recognized as a seminal song in hip-hop history. Cherrywine represents a brave new form in hip-hop, melding 70's funk bass and guitar, 80's synth pop, the latest hip-hop- beats, and his unique lyrical delivery. The result is a one-of-a-kind sound that evokes Outkast, Parliament, Curtis Mayfield as well as Kraftwerk. Once again Ishmael has redefined the genre.
Together, Doodlebug and DJ Alex J have teamed up to create a underground hip hop review and will perform songs from their respective solo careers as well as Digable Planets classics!

Genre: Electronica
There’s not much to your average Mahjongg song. A metronomic drum beat, a broken synth whining out the same two or three notes, a mangled pair of guitar chords giving way to another mangled pair of guitar chords, and maybe some pithy vocal couplets for the attentive listener. They employ a decidedly simple sound that resembles, more than anything else, a dub version of a noise rock track minus two or three instruments. And this would be one of their more elaborate songs; their debut EP, Machinegong, opens with “’intro,’” comprised only of twelve seconds of tape hiss. Whether they mean that song as a sincere introduction or not, the quotation marks around the name make a good point – if asked to describe what Mahjongg’s all about or give a representative sample of just what they do, one can only shrug. Which is not to say that the music is hard to describe, simply that we’re best served by not dwelling on those kinds of details for too long.

Hip-hop beats and conscious lyrics are the sound of Mama’s Cookin’. Their style is as much Led Zeppelin as it is The Roots. Smooth but edgy, driven by current themes with an essential nod to the great music of the past.Zebuel Early worked late nights in Memphis blues clubs and hosted his own R&B radio show in Colorado. He moonlights as a deep-funk and reggae deejay when he's not playing guitar and fronting Mama's Cookin. Add Mike Adamo's rock-solid drums and creative sampling to Steve LaBella's resonant bass work and you have the Mama's Cookin' sound.
Songs of beauty and deep intention, crafted with unique and timely lyrics leave a lasting impression.

Genre: Indie Folk Rock
Callow: Gared Moses—singer and rhythm guitarist, has been writing music for various projects since the mid 90s. In 2003 he joined bassist Tim Watson and Callow was born. Their sound, which had a jagged, off-kilter feel, accompanied them through 2005, when they moved to the San Francisco Bay Area. There they eventually met lead guitarist Rob Goodson (Thought Riot, Silent Film Stars) and percussionist Sami Knowles, and their sound morphed toward a mellow, mellifluous, haunting, orchestral brand of folk rock.
Their current demo was recorded and mixed in analog with Owl Sight Recorders, run by Alex Laipeneiks (founding member of Mr. T Experience).
Callow alternates their time between touring throughout the Western US and rehearsing in their studio in Oakland, California.
