Theo Katzman plays the bass, drums, and musical chairs

The musical chairs part is symptomatic of his personal musical evolution. He gained prominence playing bass with the Ann Arbor based electro-pop band My Dear Disco. He has played with several other area bands including the folk ensemble Red Arrow Highway, and jazz-rock band Vox Maui.

Now hes a singer-songwriter, and he's going it alone, debuting with a performance at Bell's Eccentric Cafe in Kalamazoo Thurs., Feb 25. The show will begin at 9:30 p.m., and there is a $5 charge at the door.

Katzman describes his new sound as "indie-rock-soul." He will be playing venues where MDD has already acquired a fan-base, so if you are not in Kalamazoo, look for a performance soon in a town near you.
