Ducane Barbeque Grill From Emerald Pool & Patio and KEZI-TV Maple Dresser & Beveled Glass Mirror From Country Woodworking and KVAL-TV Sponsored by Home Builder's Assoc, of Lane Co. - a Berg Production Band continued from page 7 Sept. 14 at Sam Bond’s Garage — one listener was heard describing it as “bluegrass on acid.” Better to just explain the instru mentation. Jarrod Kaplan, percus sionist, has an atypical drum setup — djembe, dumbek, anklets (also known as “leg bells”) and others. He’s also been known to use a Bic pen as a drumstick. Enion Pelta, violinist, has played the instrument since she was three years old. James Whiton plays an acoustic/stand up/slap bass and David Tiller plays the mandolin and mandola (also known as an octave mandolin). During their show at Sam Bond’s, Tiller had planned to play the acoustic guitar in mandolin tuning, but was unable due to technical difficulties. This is per haps of some interest to musician types for a variety of reasons. The mandolin is a four-stringed instrument, whereas the guitar is six-stringed. The guitar is typically tuned in intervals of fourths — the mandolin is tuned in fifths. Whether this unique spin on the guitar will be featured in the WOW Hall show remains to be seen. Each member of Taarka has played in numerous bands previous ly. Tiller and Pelta spent time playing in the New York-based Brooklyn Browngrass, Whiton has released his own solo disc and Kaplan is also cur rently a member of the well-known Hanuman. Taarka’s songs are composed, and they avoid Western tendencies of using standardized rhythm struc tures. Pelta explained that the band’s music was mostly written us ing meters, rather than the predom inant “4/4” that American listeners are accustomed to hearing. For those not versed in music theory, this translates to a sound that should strike listeners as im mediately and distinctly different — but one that remains imminently danceable. The band has been touring con stantly since its formation on April 20 of this year (their Web site, www.taarka.com, describes this as “an auspicious date for more than the obvious reasons”) and has shown up at various Northwest lo cations such as Bumbershoot in Seattle. They released their self-titled de but album earlier in the year. It was recorded and pressed during the span of a week; the band used ab solutely no overdubs. The band has been performing the album in its entirety during pre vious shows. Because of the album’s short recording time, the live per formances are likely to be more technically perfected than the stu dio ones.y A few highlights to keep an ear out for: “Mouse Hunt” and “The Stumptown Stomp.” They’ve also been throwing interesting covers into the set — Ozzy Osbourne’s “Crazy Train” stands out as one ex ample. Tickets for the WOW Hall show are $12 in advance and $14 at the door, which opens at 8:30 p.m. Contact the Pulse reporter at aaronshakra@dailyemerald.com.
