This is the intro video for the UsedWigs Live event from March 19, 2010 at World Cafe Live. It was created by Ken Ryzner, an insanely talented Philadelphia-area producer/director/writer. Russ saved Ken from drowning twice (he’s a horrible water skier), so Ken shows his appreciation by making cool videos for UsedWigs and running all the audio and video madness for the live shows.

Save that date, caress that date, love that date. UsedWigs Live at Upstairs at World Cafe Live with Special Guest Audible and Dave Hill!

Philly six-piece Audible recently released their latest EP “Isolette”, which as of this writing you can still download for free here – but move fast, as I’ve been assured that’s only temporary. In fact, you might want to do that now, and have these great new tunes as a companion for the review. Go ahead. I’ll wait for you.
