We are happy to announce that Raquy and the Cavemen will be coming back for the third year in a row to help raise funds for the Vegan Bus! Hailing from Brooklyn Raquy brings traditional Middle Eastern music and modern drumming together for a unique sound. Raquy has traveled to and immersed herself in the musical cultures of the Middle East, Egypt and India. Raquy performs with the Dumbek (Arabic hand drum) and the Iranian Kamanche, similar to a violin. Warming up for Raquy will be performances by local musicians and belly dancers (more info coming soon). A portion of the proceeds will go to the Vegan Bus Project.

Last year we had a successful fundraiser featuring a live set from the indie folk goddess AMANDA ROGERS. This year Amanda is part of a duo called THE PLEASANTS and is touring the Northeast once again. The duo will be gracing us with a performance at CAFE EVOLUTION. We will be serving up VEGAN PIZZA from master chef Heather Bargeron along with BUFFALO TEMPEH and VEGAN BLUE CHEESE DRESSING from our secret recipe vault. The regular CAFE EVOLUTION menu will also be available, along with their decadent vegan desserts. ABOUT THE PLEASANTS: Mixing equal parts whiskey, dusty earth, and spring water, The Pleasants evoke a strange sense of longing for simpler times and lyrically draw on past experiences when young hearts and minds are unspoiled and uncorrupted by modern exploitations. Sometimes described as intense folk but best described as “Indie Grunge”, The Pleasants weave together music familiar yet altogether new. Bonded by their love of REAL music, this song-writing duo (Amanda Rogers and Mike Matta) has bounded on their musical journey to writing “the most undeniably best song ever.” CAFE EVOLUTION 22 Chestnut St. Florence, MA 413-586-0200 NO COVER!

The Vegan Bus is putting together a Vegan Circus to tour with, and so Wildfire seems like the perfect event to make an appearance at with the bus. We will be traveling from Northampton, MA to Ashford, CT and hope to pick up some wayward fire dancers on the way. If you are interested in traveling with us please contact us! We will be leaving on Friday, August 20th and returning on Monday, August 23rd. To help fund the Vegan Bus Project we are asking for a suggested donation of $30 for the round trip, or $20 for one way. If there is interest we can swing through Hartford, CT or other areas that are slightly off of the route.
