Lys Guillorn and The Void Kittens share the bill with Baron Von Elsa at Best Video Film & Cultural Center Fri., August. 21. The show starts at 7 PM and the cover is $10.

Lys Guillorn is a genre-bending singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist from Connecticut, dipping one boot in twangy indie folk, and the other in psych rock. Live, Guillorn is joined by The Void Kittens--Peter Riccio (drums) from The Sawtelles and NHIC, and Eric Bloomquist (bass) of Chica Non Grata and Bronson Rock.

Guillorn’s self-titled first record, released in 2003, earned some indie press and radio airplay due to its originality as well as guest turns from members of the Feelies, Luna, and Voidoids. Since then, Guillorn has remained a steadfast member of the Connecticut music scene, printing photos by day and playing shows by night with both local and national artists. They have two full-length studio records of originals, and a couple of EPs and singles on their own label, Little Cowgirl Records. Guillorn's most recent release is a newly remastered version of Wayward Children, which features demos and tracks from compilations put out by other labels. They are currently working on their next full-length record.

Baron Von Elsa AKA Aly of Magik Press is a multi-media, multi-genre artist, poet, and musician who layers haunting imagery and ambient noise with blues and folk traditions. They sing for the Wild Void and sometimes it answers back.
