the AudioBodies

"Show us you have heart, and we will bare to you our souls" - J. Hacha De Zola (guitar, ukulele, strings). After years of performing in the New Jersey/New York City music scene, musician J. Hacha De Zola met vocalist WYME in a small subterranean music venue, below a grungy Jersey City bar, amid plastic lawn furniture, broken bottles and flickering tea candles. Zola was the house guitarist and WYME was the featured artist/vocalist/ poet of the evening. The pair formed an instant bond as soon as WYME stepped up to the microphone, and The Audiobodies were born that night. With energetic performances and spiritually conscious lyrics, The Audiobodies combine WYME's smooth Terrance Trent D'Arby-esq vocals and harmonies with Zola's alt-rock guitar style. The result is urban world music with tinges of psychedelic rock and soul.

Diego Rivera was born on this day in 1886!

Diego Rivera spent more than a decade in Europe developing his own style of cubism infused with symbols of his Mexican nationality. After his return to Mexico in 1922, he joined fellow creative thinkers and state officials in concerted efforts to revitalize and redefine Mexican culture in the wake of the Mexican Revolution. Rivera is well known for his murals, but less for his other works such as this painting, Sun, design for H.P. (Horsepower). See other works by Diego Rivera in our collection.
