Andy Hayleck and Dan Breen have been collaborating together in Baltimore for the past three years. Working with a variety of instruments and sound materials, Hayleck and Breen strive to create an unusual and evocative environment of sound. Both use a variety electronic and acoustic instruments and techniques to achieve their desired outcome. On this tour, the focus will fall on unamplified, bowed metal and musical saws.

Utah!
Math rock darlings Utah! came together in spring 1998 with Eddie Pellino (guitar/vocals), Eric Singer (baritone guitar/vocals), Anne Polesnak (cello), and Mickey D'Loughy (drums). The quartet gigged in and around their native Kalamazoo, MI, eventually hooking up with the likes of Haymarket Riot, Aloha, Utimate Fakebook and Guided by Voices for larger shows. They inked a deal with Arborvitae in late 2000 and hooked up with Bob Weston (Archers of Loaf, Sebadoh) to record an album. A self-titled EP appeared in late 2000; "Zoo Sounds & Destruction" marked Utah!'s debut album in spring
2002.

Betty Dylan
Banned from The Bluebird in Nashville for being "too aggressive and in-your-face", Betty Dylan is the married couple, Dan and Vickie Dubelman. They have released 4 albums including their latest "Heart Land," which received a 5-star review from the Roots Music Report and made the college charts.
They have been touring and recording with musicians who have defined American music for the last 30 years - from Bernard "Pretty" Purdie to Jerry Jemmott (Mussel Shoals rhythm section!) to Kenny Aronoff and the legendary Carol Kaye .
He’s a New Yorker, she’s from Bakersfield, California. They’ve been touring nationally full-time for 2 solid years, and have opened for Rodney Crowell, Hank III, Buddy & Julie Miller, Dan Hicks, Loudon Wainright, Drive By Truckers, The Blasters, Leon Russell, Bob Schneider, Paul Thorn, Todd Snider, and more...

Tom Constanten
Tom Constanten (aka TC), composer and the second keyboardist for the Grateful Dead, was born on March 19, 1944 in Long Branch, New Jersey. In the fall of 1961, he met future Deadbassist Phil Lesh while studying astronomy at U.C. Berkeley in California. The two hit it off famously. Soon, they were rooming together, cranking out avant-garde compositions. They enrolled at the legendary Mills College to study with composer Luciano Berio. When Berio invited the pair to accompany him to Europe, Constanten eagerly accepted, while Lesh stayed States-side.
While in Germany, Constanten studied with many of the luminaries of the contemporary classical music world, including Pierre Boulez, Karleheinz Stockhausen, and Henri Pousseur. Following a stint in the air force in 1965 and '66 (to avoid the draft), Constanten rejoined Lesh as a member of the now artistically thriving Grateful Dead. Constanten brought an experimental influence to an already wildly eclectic (and just plain wild) ensemble. He added prepared piano and other assorted weirdness to the band's two psychedelic studio masterpieces, "Anthem Of The Sun" and "Aoxomoxoa" in 1967 and 1968. Unfortunately, things didn't go quite as well on the road, where the band found their home for most of the year. Combined with his burgeoning interest in scientology, Constanten found his playing drowned out by the band's wall of guitars. By 1970, he'd amicably parted ways with the band.
Constanten spent the '70s, '80s, and '90s mostly in the Bay Area, creating odd compositions, teaching piano, and playing shows around the periphery of the Dead scene. He composed for the theater with some success, including the off-Broadway play Tarot (the music from which was released on United Artists in 1972), ultimately winning a silver medal in the New York Critics' Circle Poll. In 1986, he was an artist in residence at Harvard University.
Throughout this period, he toured occasionally and released albums by himself, or through small imprints (such as Relix Records), which often featured variation on Dead tunes like "Dark Star". His music remained extremely intelligent, though it often fell prey to thin sounding synthesizers, faring better when he stuck with acoustic piano. In 1988, he collaborated with Dead lyricist Robert Hunter for a disc of Hunter's translations of the poetry of Rainer Maria Rilke. He recorded with Henry Kaiser on 1990's Heart's Desire, and began an ongoing partnership with latter-day Dead keyboard technician Bob Bralove that resulted in the Dose Hermanos project. In 1993, he married Beth Diggs. A daughter, Clarissa Lee, was born in 1997. Following her birth, Constanten and family relocated to North Carolina.
