Amy Crehore in the news

Originally published on Los Thunderlads, 6 February 2009:

An interview with Amy Crehore appears online in Sadie magazine. Another interview is on newsstands in Inked, a magazine that caters to men who like pictures of girls who have lots of tattoos.

She talks about her art, about ukuleles, and about “Dreamgirls and Ukes,” her upcoming solo show at Thinkspace gallery in Los Angeles. If you’re going to be in LA anytime between 13 February and 6 March, you should go. (Yes, I know the instrument pictured here isn’t a ukulele.)

On her blog, Amy Crehore posted a link to an interview Thinkspace did with her as part of their promotion of the show.

While I’m at it, I should mention that in the 90s Amy Crehore was in the band The Hokum Scorchers with her friend, ukuleleist Lou Reimuller. She promises that the Hokum Scorchers will play at Thinkspace opening night. And in 1981-1985, she and a guy named Tom Campagnoli were behind some really trippy comic books called “Boys and Girls Grow Up.”
