(singing, throat singing, beatboxing, vocal
turntablism, vocal guitarsviolinsharmonicas,
and so on), using Ableton Live and my trusty
Ground Control Pro.

been invited to perform.

Marie-Elizabeth Mundheim, electric violinist

TOXIC AUDIO'S LOUDMOUTH

(212) 239-5258
Note: My appearance at this show is NOT
YET CONFIRMED. Check kidbeyond.com by
Wednesday for more info.
There's a fantastic a cappella group called
Toxic Audio who have an off-Broadway show
called Loudmouth. The show is awesome mix
of music and comedy: really tight, fun covers
with a full, powerful sound (including great
beatboxing), and witty, slapstick, non-cheesy
comedy.
Toxic's show lasts for about 90 minutes, then
after a 15-minute intermission, I'll be doing a
40-minute set of beatboxing and live-looping.
