Tonight at the Ivy Room: The Subterraneanz Return?!

Well no, not exactly. The members of Subterraneanz have gone their separate ways since their demise a few years back, LCJ is hosting "Just Scratch 2", and "Live Hip Hop", Thursday nights at Berkeley's Ivy Room. Their spinmaster supreme, "Hyp", singer "Gypsy Luv", and "Louis Da Saint", formed the trio "Triple Ave.", keyboardist and Subz co-founder "Nyambezi" continues his exciting solo career, and the incredibly talented bassist Mike Shea somehow finds a way to still perform with all of them. As for the inimitable "Tranque", he has apparently re-surfaced in Brooklyn, New York's Hip-Hop scene.

All of these forces are scheduled to collide, (minus Tranque), at the Ivy Room, late tonight, March 9th. This will NOT be a Subterraneanz reunion in the strict sense of word; each act will be performing separately, however one can only imagine there will be some "sitting in" that night. We'll keep you posted, but I'm told a certain "Drummstick" player may also join in the fun!
