Tonight! At the Elbo Room. Come help one of the best record stores celebrate their 20th anniversary. Spinning: Cool Chris, Vinnie, B-Cause, Jon Blunck (Sweater Funk) & DJ Shadow. 647 Valencia, SF.
20 years have passed since the Groove Merchant record store opened up on Haight Street in San Francisco and became the launch pad for the Ubiquity family of labels: Luv N’Haight, CuBop and Ubiquity.
The label will be celebrating this anniversary in multiple ways including an art exhibit at Guerilla Art Cafe in Berkeley opening June 25th, 2010. The show will focus on a handful of the Bay Area funk and soul artists whose music has been re-issued on the Luv N’Haight label. The art show will include paintings of, and inspired by, Darondo, Eugene Blacknell, Sugarpie Desanto, and Twilight, the latest addition to the Luv N’Haight family. The Guerilla Cafe art collective will be painting, and a video montage of vintage footage will be created by Ubiquity Recordings artist Ohmega Watts. Throughout the length of the show Guerilla will be hosting special events featuring guest appearances by the musicians and DJ sets playing their sounds.
