Looks like we’re performing at the Andrew Shire Gallery, Wed. Nov. 3rd, 8:00pm

Located on Wilshire Blvd., one-half block west of Western Ave. at the southeast corner of St. Andrews near the Wiltern Theatre.

There’s a premiere: “Leaving Paphos Ringed with Waves”

Yup, both groups will perform at the Kol Ami Synagogue Sunday, October 24th at 2:00pm!

Unfortunately, the concert at Whittier College that was slated for July 23rd has been cancelled.

Well, the performance at the Thomas Solomon Gallery produced:

  - Some great photos:

  - The premiere of the 3-mov’t “All Saints Prepare”

Well, we’re half way through 2009 and fast approaching our 12th year as a group.

“Upping the artistic ante was the pulsating music of minimalist composer Steve Moshier, who, with his venerable Liquid Skin Ensemble, provided live, rhythmically rich accompaniment.”

                                      - Victoria Looseleaf, Dance Magazine (6/09)

- The Cypress College concert in May was a total blast and the youtube video of us performing “They Had No Plows” with the Cypress College Scratch Orchestra is a real knockout:

They Had No Plows

- Also, the Scratch Orchestra’s performance of “Shakeout” was pretty cool:

- The performance of “Surrender, Dorothy” with the Rudy Perez Performance Ensemble and guest vocalist Linda Brown at the Luckman Fine Arts’ Intimate Theater at CSULA in June was a huge success and quite an honor for Liquid Skin since it was also a ‘Tribute to Rudy Perez’.

Looking forward to performing “Surrender, Dorothy” at the Armory Center for the Arts in Pasadena the 23rd and 24th of October this year.
