DDAA

The full name of DDAA is Déficit Des Années Antérieures.
DDAA was an obscure group of radical experimental noise makers used improvisation and collage to craft strange sounds and deconstructed songs for highly creative music that is as far off the path of conventions as that of similar but more known visionaries like the Residents and Nurse With Wound. In fact, DDAA roughly began the same time as NWW in the late '70s, started by three visual artists, Sylvie Martineau, Jean-Philippe Fee, and Jean-Luc Andre in Lion sur Mer, France.

Patti Plinko and her Boy

An enthralling, passionate and uncompromising performer and writer, Patti has been likened to Jacques Brel, Bjork, Edith Piaf and Nick Cave. Eccentric, brooding satirical songs. Greatly influenced by European cinema, and the satirical underworld of Berlin performance art. Patti will holler, whisper and woo the audience taking them into a dark seductive world of art, sex and death. Arousing chemistry seethes beneath gas masked theatrics, welcome to the world of Dada Noir.
