Andy Clockwise Residency at Spaceland July 13, 2009

Andy Clockwise is playing the Monday Night Residency at Spaceland in July.

What is Andy Clockwise? Does he really speak robot? And why will you be seeing him selling
out the Hotel Café or spaceland time after time? Will he blast away the incertitude that
haunted December; will he help you forget another night? Is he the new rock and roll/
electronic pop hero and is he here to save?
Andy loves each and every one of us all. He says so. Kingly, charismatic, all loving, and kind,
Andy comes from an innocent time when songs repaired broken hearts, or broken social
identities, or even broken governments. Going to an Andy Clockwise show is like invading
the medicine show. What is it he’s selling anyway?
It’s a revival of sentiment. It’s okay to feel again, and to feel foolish, and self-aware, and it’s
okay to keep coming back for more.
After a recent explosive performance at the now ridiculously over-crowded Sunday night
Cinespace Extravaganza, it has become clear that the universal appeal of ditties such as “My
Generation” and “Everybody’s in a Band” have made magic with the shiny new kids, as
thunderous applause, and hearty affirmations thrilled round the room. Who is he?
And who or what is a generation, or a genre, anymore? As he has so eloquently stated, Andy
came from Sydney to the States “to become everything you hate.” If a city has a zeitgeist,
Andy’s on it. Andy might just be a high priest of the revolution or devolution of one’s own
Hollywood madcap race to oblivion/greatness.
If one really must have a hero, or a leader, if the opposition must have a voice, I nominate
Andy Clockwise as speaker pro tem of the blossoming catastrophic phenomenon, known as
my generation.
Not that we believe in any such thing.
Clockwise has co-produced the new album with Daniel Rejmer, whose recording credits
include The Kills, Billy Bragg, Björk and Nick Cave.
His reputation for daring on-stage showmanship has garnered Clockwise a fervent live
following; his unpredictable and electrifying live shows have sold out venues across Australia,
London, New York - and more recently some of LA’s most iconic venues: The Hotel Café, The
and Spaceland.
