PERFRMING ARTS
Washington Post – Feb 1, 2007
– Chris KlimekThe Aquariumnstage the Aquarium confronts the audience with a mindset decision: Are we watching a rock concert a movie or both? The local organ-and-drums duo set up a well-worn film projector to flash footage during its set. n the Black Cat’s backstage Tuesday night a reel of straight-outta-Marlin Perkins images of daily life in the Andes fulfilled the visual component and for the most part those visuals meshed well with the grainy analog swing of the compositions. When the film became distracting it was easy enough to focus on the unique post-punk mood music — Jason Hutto’s Wurlizter organ careening over the hard kick of Laura Harris’s drum kit. Which essentially means that the 45-minute show was a success: The duo provided both backing music and a feature performance sufficiently easing the burden of choice placed on the crowd to begin with. The Aquarium left at home the sumptuous pulses of its self-titled debut album. Instead punk sinew showed through driven by Harris’s bruising beat. “Golden Pyramid” and “Maxxo Sesh” were given a speedy battering; the whirl of “Channel 9″ and the ominous thrum of “White House” (which echoed another organ-driven duo Suicide) were the aural equivalent of the impromptu jamming of the Jordan Kitt’s sales staff after someone spiked the coffee with acid.

Who made you God?

So does the album's wry title which translates as “Lemon and Salt” but also refers to something one might rub into an open wound and to two key ingredients used when drinking tequila. It was there she honed her fusion of vallenato corridos pop art-rock bolero funk and more. These days the 36-year-old Venegas specializes in wry songs that at first sound like sunny pop but are gently subversive when you dig beneath the surface. r as she told me in a Night&Day interview three years ago: “(My) music is always about being curious and creating a challenge. ”It remains to be seen just how challenging she will be during her Tuesday and Wednesday shows at 4th & B where I found her 2004 concert to be accomplished if less edgy than her best material promised.
Nightlife Agenda

There was talk that its booking might shift toward more traditional performers when it reopened but tonight’s show is a perfect example of something that only the Warehouse would present. Coming down from Boston are… Tonight marks the night’s third anniversary and the WFTB anniversary bashes are especially worth checking out.
