IVY ROOM PRESENTSFRIDAY AUGUST 1ST—Boneless OnesCardielStreetLa Sombra—7:30 pm doors / 8:00 pm showADV TIX AVAILABLE - $15 DOOR—IVY ROOM860 San Pablo Avenue, Albany • 21+Boneless Ones—The Boneless Ones formed in Berkeley, California, in 1984. Initially, they weren’t even a musical group—more a cadre of Pro-Am aspiring punks aligned to a single skate-or-die goal. The genesis of the moniker goes back to Fox and cohort Takaki pilfering boneless stickers from grocery store meat departments. They plastered the ‘boneless’ red decals everywhere. Then, still, without a band, they designed a logo. When a skate photo of Fox, Takaki, and ripper Joel Chavez appeared in East Bay fanzine Cometbus, they were mistaken for a real-life band. Naturally, Chavez’s trick—called a “boneless”—combined with youthful guerilla marketing tactics had paid off. The Boneless Ones were officially born. Obligatory lineup changes eventually coalesced into Fox and Takaki bringing in Joe Satriani-educated guitarist Luke Skeels and Fang drummer Tim Stilletto. Not long after, the quartet wrote and recorded Skate for the Devil with Kevin Army. The rest, the adage goes, is history.Cardiel—CARDIEL is a two-piece rock band originally formed in Mexico City in 2010 by drummer Samantha Ambrosio and guitarist/vocalist ​Miguel Fraino, both from Valencia, Venezuela​. Their style contains elements of skate rock, fuzz punk and psychedelic dub.STREET—SF H/CLa Sombra—La Sombra, hailing from San Jose, has swiftly ascended to the forefront of the San Francisco Bay Area’s doom metal scene.
