<p>Happy May Day, friends.<br> <br> Here's a nudge'ms about my solo set tomorrow night at the Lizard Lounge. It's a fabulous chance to check out my latest rigamarole -- on the early side which is ideal if you're either homebody-ish or a galavanting club-bug. The evening's main attraction is Scott Damgaard Band who just released a new disc; ubiquitous 'polyrock' Dave Lieb opens the night.

<h3><strong><em>Hey, Happy New Year!<br> Here's Shovel.</em></strong></h3>
<p>A newly minted arrangement/recording of my seasonal-affective-disordered anti-ballad. <em>With horns!</em> I worked it up as a option for inclusion in the recent Christmas Cavalcade. For various reasons, we decided on the other two, but I am fond of this take and thought it a shame not to share! This perennial just won't bow and refuses to be unhopeful.</p>

Doors at 7pm. Show at 7:30pm. Tickets: $20. All proceeds to the <a href="https://www.somervillehomelesscoalition.org/" target="_blank" data-imported="1">Somerville Homeless Coalition</a>.</p>
<p>Consider a donation. Winter is coming. Folks could use our help.<br> And everyone deserves dignity. All year round.<br> <br> I prepared tunes <em>specially</em> for this show and wanna share with you the demos I made up to teach the band. Chandler’s game on lending me his talented cohort, so its MASCARA/TRAVIS PHILHARMONIC for two songs! Happy as a pig on a zipline. Thanks Chandler!</p>

<strong>Accidental costume sponsorship</strong>. Following Chandler’s lead on PJ-shab-chic stage couture, I found the perfect Xmas onsey and called the company about sizes. After hearing I was using it in a benefit show for charity, Heather of <a href="http://www.footedpajamas.com/" target="_blank" data-imported="1">Footed Pajamas</a> graciously offered to send me the onsey at no cost if I post a pic on my social. Hence, my socials are donning the pic above. I’m surely pitching in the amount for that to the SHC. Thanks Heather!<br> <br> It’s guaranteed to be a hoot if you make it out Wednesday.<br> And a true joy to see you.<br> <br> Merry new year!<br> <em>Scootchcracker</em>

<p>Hello gentle folk.</p>
<p>I hope my new release <a href="https://soundcloud.com/mascara-non-grata/chain-link-fence" data-imported="1">Chain Link Fence</a> -- a tribute to my dad on the anniversary of his passing -- can serve to shine a light on domestic violence and abuse, October being <a href="http://www.nrcdv.org/dvam/home" data-imported="1">Domestic Violence Awareness Month</a>. May we all do better to shield the most vulnerable among us.</p>
<p>My dad was a survivor. My song seeks to heal generational wounds that lurked in my family’s history most probably due to post traumatic stress brought on by dad’s and grandpa’s military service during wartime. My <a href="https://youtu.be/8R_hBV7VU_8" data-imported="1">YouTube announcement (from Florence Italy!)</a> discusses this and advises listeners o f the mature, explicit lyrical content.</p>

<p><a href="https://soundcloud.com/mascara-non-grata/tree-for-molly-glynn" data-imported="1">Tree</a> is an elegy for <a href="http://www.chicagotribune.com/entertainment/theater/ct-molly-glynn-obit-column.html" data-imported="1">Molly Glynn</a>, a fallen performing-arts comrade, whose prolific life was cut short by a <a href="http://www.chicagotribune.com/entertainment/theater/chi-chicago-theater-actress-molly-glynn-story.html" data-imported="1">freak accident</a> while bicycling not far from her home near Chicago. My wife and I went to college with Molly, studied under the same acting coach, and Deb worked with her on many theatre productions. We are so proud of Molly and feel deeply for her family, loved ones and colleagues from both the theatre world and the TV industry.</p>
<p><a href="https://soundcloud.com/mascara-non-grata/cieco-cieco" data-imported="1">Cieco Cieco</a> is an Italian-peasant frolic from Benoît Charest’s original soundtrack of <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Triplets_of_Belleville" data-imported="1">The Triplets of Belleville</a> which won the Académie des Arts et Techniques du Cinéma “2004 Cesar Award for Best Original Score.” Loved, loved, loved that film. And, yup, I did grow up in a first-generation Italian-American home. This was recorded on what would have been my pop’s 91<sup>st</sup> birthday. After studying Italian for a few years, I can sing exactly <em>one</em> Italian song, albeit in a “Napolitano” dialect with a “Brooklynese” accent. Va bene.</p>
<p>Stay primed for more content, upcoming MNGFS releases, including an inside scoop about a new micro ‘slop opera’ that grapples with the modern-day, virulent phenomenon of “mobbing.”</p>
