Iced Ink played Parkside Lounge a couple Thursdays ago. I found my seat, propped my phone against a pint glass then pressed RECORD. This was the outcome.

I've seen many Iced Ink shows in my 17 years of knowing the band. I personally think this was one of the best shows they've played to this day. It's 34 minutes of FUN!!! I guarantee you'll click PLAY AGAIN. I do! -OX❤️

*Please let us know what you think!! Thank you.

For those weirdos that like cool music...

Iced Ink is an instru-mental bass/drums/guitar trio out of New York. Their music is a pop culture stream of conscience: the consumption, digestion, product, and by-product of all the movies, TV shows, commercials, and songs of your life - all neatly crammed into unique 4 minute long meatballs for your ears.

Their "new single is up on Spotify, Apple Music, and all of the other streaming thingies! Tap on over to your streaming platform of choice, turn the volume to a robust Nigel Tufnel eleven, and check it out!

The full “Raceway To Fun!” album is coming at you Friday, May 5th, aka Inko de Mayo!"

Enjoy the meatballs and see you on the 5th of May!

This powerfully moving mural is on my block in my new neighborhood on the side of a large elementary school that faces the First Spanish Methodist Church. It’s of Nicholasa Mohr, a respected Nuyorican author who lives nearby and is known for being the first widely published Latina authors in the United States. It’s called El Regalo Magico/The Magic Gift by Celso Rodriguez and Roberto Biaggi of Ceros Design Studio. I love stopping and taking it in when I walk past. -OX❤️

I heart this. -OX❤️..
David Gilhooly, Frozen Heart, 1969, stoneware, 8 x 9 x 6 inches..
After American ceramists had embraced abstract expressionism in the mid-1960s, a new movement within the movement began to take shape. “Funk,” a term coined by curator Peter Selz in a 1967 article in Art in America, gave rise to what he described as the “anti-form” and a group of artists drawing from Dadaism, Beat poetry, and jazz music to create work with vibrant, provocative and sometimes vulgar imagery. Selz organized an exhibition the same year titled “Funk” at the University of California, Berkeley, introducing twenty-six ceramists as proponents of the movement, including Robert Arneson, Peter Voulkos, Ken Price, and David Gilhooly.

YARN P**N ALERT! This bright rainbow “Giant Knitting” sculpture was created by 10 and 11 year old students along with Teacher Annie Malcolm from Yallingup Steiner School as their entry in the annual Dunsborough Sculpture by the Bay in March 2016. They were awarded the Emerging Artist award from Happs Winery. Very cool, they should be proud. -OX❤️

WOW! Colorado painter and sculptor Jaime Molina blows my mind. He creates these strangely cool three-dimensional wooden characters or objects he calls “Cutty’s” that are from a fictional world called “Cutty Town”. He uses found wood and nails of all sizes to form their wild hairdos and beards. I want one! -OX❤️
