The long-awaited Dill Pickle Food Co-op is getting ready to open it’s doors and supply the northwest side with local, sustainable, organic, happy food. To help raise much-needed moneys for the opening, riotous big circus band Environmental Encroachment and Milwaukee roots/jazz/country rockers The Candeliers are joining the I Ching for a big fundraiser bash. Join us at Quenchers on Friday, November 20th for great music, Pickle merch, a raffle for store discounts and other good stuff.

Danah(boo), our beloved fiddler, is in town this week (no doubt fleeing the oppressive heat of the great NW) and we’ve nabbed her for a show! Come hear the ICQ in full orchestral glory at the Ottoman Empire Tuesday, August 4.

Book of Changes (to the lineup)

ichingquartet — Sun, 01 Feb 2009 15:25:26 +0000

We’ve got good news and bad news this January. Change is the only constant and it’s definitely true of the I Ching Quartet. We’re losing a couple members to The Wanderlust. Our fiddle player Danahboo & trumpeteer Teddy One-Note will be leaving us for a spell, Danah to Seattle, Ted to France.

Ted heads to France.

Danah bound for Seattle.

Honestly, we don’t know what we’re gonna do without these to soloing folkers. They will be sorely missed. That’s the bad news.

Now the good news. We’re adding two new members! All you statisticians keeping track of what size a quartet really is, it’s still 6. That’s right, a net gain/loss of zero in the I Ching Quartet. Introducing new members: Josh on guitar, and Lauren on bassoon.

Josh rocks electric guitar.

Lauren kills bassoon.

All in all, a bittersweet day for the I Ching Quartet. Bittersweet.

Last month, we started laying down tracks for a new album. With Danahboo moving to Seattle and Teddy One-Note’s possible departure to Europeland, we needed to get these arrangements recorded. We spent 3 days at Experimental Sound Studio on Ravenswood on the Northside and had an unbelievably good time recording all 10 songs and 2 bonus tracks. We put some photos up on flickr.

We’re looking to get the album ready to release in the spring.
