Side Projects Playing Tonight, Tomorrow

No, not a band called Side Projects. Tonight Deep Red will be playing at (le) Poisson Rouge which is made up of members from Hercules & Love Affair, including singer Nomi Ruiz, keyboardist Morgan Wiley, and bassist Andrew Raposo. “They combine minimal electro, dance, and R&B to create what sounds like a cross between Afrika Bambaataa, Kraftwork & Madonna.” Midnight Magic open the show and DJ Pat Mahoney (LCD Soundsystem) will DJ after Deep Red. $10 tickets are still available. The group is also playing under the name Diamond Life on February 13 at Highline Ballroom as a Sade cover band. Tickets for that are also on sale.

Another side project, this one featuring members of Beirut, called Team B, is playing at the 92Y Tribeca tomorrow (Friday) night. Members from Beirut in Team B are: Kelly Pratt, Jon Natchez, Tracy Pratt, and Jason Poranski. Tickets are available.
