This past weekend Zach Fuhrer (ES '11) and his new quartet, Suitcase of Keys, headed into the (very legitimate - and supposedly very expensive) Firehouse 12 recording studio (in New Haven!) to lay down a pro-quality demo. Suitcase of Keys is Zach on vocals and keys, Hazel Scher on drums (TC '11), Daniel Spector on bass (SY '11), and Nolan Green on guitar (ES '12). We'll let you know when we get the mix.
(from L-R): Spector, Fuhrer, Scher in F12
40 years ago today, on November 17, 1968, one James Marshall Hendrix played a rock show at Yale's own Woolsey Hall. Before he almost tore down the place (literally -- the combo of his loud amps and Woolsey's bad acoustics did permanent damage), Hendrix played a mere 3-song set consisting of "Foxey Lady", "Purple Haze", and his famous rendition of "The Star-Spangled Banner". Was this the greatest popular music event ever to happen at Yale? Other than Sean Kingston's '08 spring fling performance. Obvs. What do you think?
