Did I tell you that I sing sometimes? My band, The Solitary Cyclist, is comprised of me, my buddy John Lindaman (True Love Always) on guitar and vocals, Julia Rydholm (Ladybug Transistor) on bass and Chris Deaner (+/-) on drums . Together, we are like Voltron -- there is no pink ranger in our formation. When we rehearse, we bring delicious snacks, discuss car-free bike routes in Brooklyn and complain about how the other guys in the space never pick up their empty cans of Bud. Yeah, that's how we roll!
And -- get this -- we are opening for the amazing Versus and +/-! How cool are we? Very cool, I would say.
It's sort of being billed as a Teenbeat night because JL is part of the Teenbeat catalog and Cotton Candy, Mark Robinson (Unrest, Air Miami) and Evelyn Hurley's band, is also opening. Plus, there's a band called Ciudad coming from the Phillippines.
The Solitary Cyclist plays bossa nova-tinged duets. We're good, clean fun. We aren't going to rock your socks off, but we may tickle your feet. As our Facebook page says, we are all love songs, no ambition.
Also, I may be guest squawking with +/-.

Hi Ganda,
Hope to see you tonight! Bought tix, will be there...
Yay! I think we go on at 8:30. Show starts at 8:00. If that changes, I'll try to post something here. Or on Facebook. Or Twitter. Or something. So many ways to harrass the world...
This is SO AMAZING! I am seriously in awe of your many talents. You're the coolest girl I know :)
Aw, that's so sweet of you to say, Megan! You are equally cool. To paraphrase Malcolm Gladwell, I'm following in the great English tradition of doing many things and doing them poorly.
I want a bossa nova band. I am jealous.
