Not many people get to realize their early dreams. Dave Nachmanoff has toured the world, both on his own, and as the guitarist and opening act for Al Stewart (“Year of the Cat”, “Time Passages”), at venues as far ranging as the Royal Albert Hall in London, to The Birchmere in Alexandria, Virginia. From performing with folk legend Elizabeth “Libba” Cotten at the age of nine, to playing in a rock band with his two brothers, Dave went on to earn a PhD in Philosophy at UC Davis and slowly built a grassroots following touring all over the world. In addition, he writes and records custom songs for clients and uses his recording studio to produce other artists. For this special show, he will be joined by Mike Lindauer on bass and vocals and Nick Carvajal on drums and vocals. Local musician, Omar Musisko, will be opening for Dave Nachmanoff. Two-time San Diego Music Award nominee (with The Peripherals and The Spiritual Motels) Omar Musisko crafts genre-bending, eclectic indie-folk music that weaves vulnerability and dark humor into poetic songs that search for beauty in the hurt.

Terry Zwigoff’s documentary focuses on Robert Crumb, the controversial comic artist who created Zap Comix (and characters like Fritz the Cat, Mr. Natural and Angelfood McSpade). Crumb started the wave of underground comics still thriving today, and critics have come to recognize him as an extraordinary and iconoclastic talent. A glimpse into the psyche of one of America’s foremost artists, "CRUMB" is frank, intimate, and darkly humorous, full of disturbing revelations about the world we live in.
