Mi Ami & Food For Animals @ La Casa
Tomorrow night former Black Eyes members Jacob Long and Daniel Martin McCormick will return to D.C. along with drummer Damon Palermo as Mi Ami, kicking off a tour in celebration of their recently released African Rhythms 12-inch on White Denim.
For those who scratched their heads back in ‘04 when McCormick and Long back teamed up as the sorta-triflin’ improvisation duo White Flight–well, this might be more to your taste. Mi Ami mash minimal-techno and dub into a trance-inducing pulp that almost demands a pair of sequined jeans and rave beads. And yeah, it kind of sounds like Black Eyes. But is that a bad thing?
Food For Animals (whose excellent debut LP Belly is out now on Hoss Records) and D.C.’s own Wealth (ex-members Navies) will also be performing.
Here’s the info:

Hey looj, as far as I know Scavengers was an EP and not a full-length record.

It’s in that 10-song, 30-minute, woulda-been-an-album-in-the-60s range.
