Arc Iris 7/21/16 Cafe 9

Providence based theatrical troupe Arc Iris landed at Cafe 9 as an intergalactic funk soul trio. Capable drummer, male keys/vocal, and female keys/guitar/trumpet/vocals had a glammy vibe. A friend saw them at Mountain Jam and spoke of a theatrical, costume-based experience. The drummer and male keys were clothed normally, the young lady on the other hand, had an unusual latex onesy, Clydesdale leg warmers, and some Sun Ra type accoutrements with facial glitter that made her look Bjorky. Space funk with soul touches were welcomed by the medium crowd. Awesome choppy version of  Joni Mitchell's Blue. At one point, the girl donned a weird cocoon cape from which she emerged chrysalis-like mid song.
