Uncle Bonsai: This one is kind of a "gimme." We've had Seattle-based folk trio Uncle Bonsai on heavy rotation for around 25 years; in fact, they're one of the bands that inspired us to publish Remixed Magazine in the first place. With their intricate harmonies, daredevil vocal arrangements, and songwriter Andrew Ratshin's dazzling music and Sondheim-meets-Gilbert-and-Sullivan-at-Tom-Paxton's-house-and-they-all-get-stoned-and-listen-to-Leonard-Cohen-records-and-laugh-their-asses-off lyrics, Uncle Bonsai has pretty much been doomed from the start to be a cult band.
We will be covering Uncle Bonsai more extensively in the near future. In the meantime, don't be aftraid to drink the Kool-Aid. I promise you, the mothership is awesome...
