Comateens and Tulula!

Comateens (Lyn Byrd, Nicholas West, performing as a duo) were founded in the burgeoning New York City rock scene of the late ‘70s — one of the first groups to discard the traditional sounds and line-ups that were standard in historical downtown venues like Max's Kansas City and CBGB. Tulula! has been stomping around Rip Van Winkle’s dreamland since the mid-oughts. The Acid-Cowboy quintet including Jason Broome, Rob Norris, Daniel Weintraub, and Megan Gugliotta comes off like a mosh pit at a gypsy carnival followed by a séance with the 27 club.
