Live performance by Botanica |
||||
|
Led by erstwhile Firewater co-conspirator and international piano man Paul Wallfisch, Botanica is a band named for those mysterious stores stocking spells, potions and artifacts of ritual. This Brooklyn-based band makes punk rock chamber music for the 21st century. Keyboardist/leader Wallfisch also is a member of mad musical scientist Thomas Truax's ensemble. The band describes their third album, Botanica vs. the Truth Fish, as a vivid collection of sexy, swampy political mayhem, and they brought that mayhem to the WFMU studio in the form of a live performance. |
