The Wapsipinicon, lead by frontman Shawn Neary, will headline the concert that runs from 7:00 to 11:00 pm this Friday at the Upstairs of the J. Grundy&#8217;s Reub &#8216;N&#8217; Stein.  Dreamland Faces will open the show slowly with an accordion and singing saw duo.  The popular Scott West of Cloud Cult <!--more-->will create a stage painting during the evening and it will be sold to the highest bidder!<\/p>\n<p>Like a life-sized music box, DREAMLAND FACES is hauntingly beautiful and odd. It\u2019s vaudeville, it\u2019s cabaret, and it\u2019s nostalgic. Spin the band\u2019s new self-titled CD and you can practically smell moth balls and grandma\u2019s perfume. Sawer\/vocalist Andy McCormick cops to a bullhorn to add the Cantor to his candor. Karen Majewicz squeezes the box while ringing out hearts with her achingly beautiful warble. The instrumentation is minimal and heartbreaking, the music breathtaking and timeless. Could it be that the saw is tonally the perfect instrument?&#8221;  -Frank De Blase, City Newspaper.
