Mighty and the SF Bay Guardian are proud to present the record release party for Michael Talbott and the Wolfkings newest, "Freeze - Die - Come to Life" out soon on Antennafarm Recordings. The night will feature the Wolfkings and their particular brand of psych folk alongside the equally commanding rock of the Last of the Blacksmiths and Citay (members of Fucking Champs, Crime in Choir). DJ's Broker/Dealer (asphodel, ghostly intl) and Jefrodisiac will round out the night with a perfectly complementary dance party.

Mighty would like the take the opportunity to present the unveiling of TOOTHLESS CHANDELIER: A MIGHTY GALLERY, featuring the art work of Michael Talbott's album designer, Nathaniel Russell. Nathaniel, by day and trade, is a designer for This is How We Do. His work for Michael Talbott and the Wolfkings album will explode into the gallery, covering the walls and ceilings with emotive figures of animal-like humans or human-like animals. This is, too, an extension of his recent installation at the Oakland airport, curated by the Lobot Gallery of Oakland. Nathaniel created a life-sized diorama featuring plywood caricatures and colorful, dreamy representations of not quite associated, yet creatively montaged objects.

Mighty pushes aside the party and aims to promote the access to and appreciation of San Francisco's art, culture, and art culture via its new mighty gallery, Toothless Chandelier. The nature of a music venue in concert with a gallery gives artists, both visual and audible, a chance to intersect for a most visceral nightlife experience. TOOTHLESS CHANDELIER encourages artists to feel limitless and express their perception of the indomitable, the omnipotent, or the courageous through murals, installations, couture, and video. While remaining an indefatigable location for dancing and drinking, Mighty wants to create a vibrant space for exhibitions, installations, digital works, murals, photography, sculpture, lectures, and colossal collaborative happenings on behalf of San Francisco's tenacious and talented artists. The gallery will have daytime hours for the public, to engage the community and see whom Mighty champions and which creative champions champion Mighty.
