Today we performed songs by Fetty Wap, Future, and Roland Carter at Pyer Moss's FW 2016 show at MILK Studios, which was part of MADE Fashion Week. Sterling Overshown did the choral arrangements and Trevor Gureckis orchestrated the accompaniment for Pierrot ensemble. We were thrilled to take part in this show! The visionary Dario Calmese contacted us a week ago and we're stoked that we were able to whip this together in such a tight span of time. It helped that the choir members were incredibly talented and super pro, and Trevor has the gift of skills and speed. We're pretty exhausted since our day started this morning at 10 am and ended around 4 pm, but we had such an amazing time playing good music in branded hospital gowns and chunky boots. We hope to do more shows next season! Maybe we'll hold a sign outside MILK that says "Will work for clothes!" :-P

Had to get a shot of Trevor, who did us a solid by getting these arrangements done in a week...
...and helped us with the tech for our digital piano. Above and beyond as always!
Obligatory selfie with choir, Sugar trying to give face!

Designer Kay Unger came! We were so excited to see her. Kay is an inspiration and Kirby of Pyer Moss used to work for her. Also pictured with us are Dario Calmese, the brains behind the show concept, and Sterling Overshown.
