A world-class artist and a dead guy.
And FurFright is proud to present special musical guest…
Bob Drake's Cabinet Of Curiosities!
Their music has been described as…
"Way off-kilter Americana, singer-songwriter, fingerstyle, alt-rockabilly pretentious crap!" -- Harold
What Harold neglected to mention is that most of the songs are about hauntings, death, abandoned farmhouses, shrieking statues, accursed cellars, shunned graveyards, things in the attic, and doomed séances . . . and that the personages in the songs generally end up dead, undead, or in a madhouse! Despite this seemingly grim subject matter, Bob's music generally has a strangely bright, sunny character, and as an entertainer he always leaves the crowd laughing at the encroaching horrors.
Aside from his many solo albums, Bob is well-known in the avant-rock world as a recording engineer and producer, holding 'the weirdest resumé in Hollywood'- including: Ice Cube, Shirley MacLaine, Tina Turner, Engelbert Humperdinck, George Clinton, Charo, Quincy Jones, and others. Lately he's gotten into fursuit performing and in the spring of 2008 performed with the group Thinking Plague in Paris and at the Gouvea Art Rock Festival in Portugal as "Beardog" on the drums. (Please note that Bob will not be performing in his "Beardog" suit at FurFright, though several furry "guests" are expected to take part in the show)
