“Cellphone Version”

PLEASE VOTE TOMORROW!!!

Directed by Arthur Adams. Featuring Yo Yo No, J. Dizzle, Bee Dee, MC Sir Paul & Li’l Miguelito. Inspired in part by the video “Drop it Like it’s Hot” by Snoop Dogg featuring Skateboard P. Enjoy!

For our first video, Arthur is joined in song by David and Jordan through the power of technology (and a little bit of magic). Enjoy!

Arthur Adams of BLAMMOS plays upbeat pop, rock & soul music, sings about urban paranoia, soul-sucking demagogues & how occasionally love CAN conquer all, AND dances like a guy who *really* thinks he can dance.

Arthur Adams of “Arthur Adams” plays downbeat folk, gospel & experimental music, sings about his love/hate relationship with Jesus, his “like-like” relationship with Satan & how we really ought to thank God for money, AND doesn’t really dance so much as he taps his feet, twitches & sways.

Come see and hear the latter personality play a FREE ALL AGES SHOW this Thursday night!
