If you are in and around New York on Saturday, Mellissa Hughes and my new variety show – The Melly and Mafoo Variety Hour – will be playing a set at The Gershwin Hotel at 8:00pm. The show – being run by our good friend and colleague, Alex Temple – is titled The Secret Life of Pop Music (sounds sexy, yes?). He’ll be presenting two of his pop-influenced pieces: Walled Room and Imogene.
We’ll being playing a set of covers, mashups, and remixes all based on very light bubble-gummy material, but set in distinctly different ways. I could try and describe to you what we’re doing, but hey, why not show you! :)
This is a mashup of the Narwhals song (the flash cartoon) with Don’t Know Much (popularized by Aaron Neville and Linda Ronstadt):
So if you likey (or are mildy intrigued) come check out our show! Here are the deetz:

The narwhals video is my new favorite thing, second only to the melly/mafoo mashup. Thanks for sharing – hope there will be more variety hours coming up.
