In addition to AMOR, Naïm records an ongoing series of instrumental albums: "Soundtracks: Volume One" (FilmGuerrero, 2002) and "Soundtracks: Volume Two" (Howe Gelb's OWOM Records, 2004).

Saturday 26@ 07:00pm	The Shed		info
	* Press Release for MA52 Show Title: Cincinnatus “Joachim” Heine Miller’s Century Venue: The Shedd Date: May 26, 2007 Time: 7:30 PM Tickets available through OFAM Cincinnatus “Joachim” Heine Miller’s Century Mood Area 52, a Eugene sextet organized by Michael Roderick, featuring accordion, strings, vocals, and percussion, performs regularly in the northwest, often crafting specific shows built around original concepts and themes. Their latest exclusive concept show, “Cincinnatus ‘Joachim’ Heine Miller’s Century”, will fill the stage of The Shedd on Saturday, May 26. This is a turn of the century multi-media show featuring stories, period-specific sets, and 21 original, new songs inspired by “Nat” Miller and the strange and unusual events in Oregon history that took place during his lifetime. Cincinnatus Heine Miller, the son of Indiana Quaker school teachers, settled in Oregon in the early 19th century. Inspired by trappers and mountain men, he set off on a life of folly that rivals that of the Baron Munchausen in its audacity and romanticism. As a horse camp cook he gave himself scurvy. He was shot in the mouth with an arrow, stole horses, married and betrayed a native american woman, became an Oregon attorney and judge with dubious credentials, edited Eugene’s controversial first newspaper, married a young poet, took the name of a renowned Mexican rebel “Joaquin,” became an internationally renowned poet and charlatan, inspired (or was inspired by) the characters “Judge Roy Bean” and “Wild Bill Cody,” and built an expansive retreat in the hills of San Francisco that is now a cherished public park (where he had himself ceremonially burned). His life, its audacity, zest, and depravity was the perfect jumping off point for Mood Area 52’s latest creative quest. Roderick dragged the band on historical field trips, did research, and along with Amy Danziger and Marietta Bonaventure composed songs about famous train robberies, stories of Native American resistance, the massacre of Chinese immigrants, famous ghosts and mutants, pioneer women, prostitution, political corruption in the early 20th century, Rom Gypsies, families driven mad by the sea, and young men who were “Shangaied” into forced maritime service. Mood area 52 is Michael Roderick on accordion and vocals, Amy Danziger on cello, Marietta Bonaventure on vocals, James West on drums, Billy Barnett on Guitar, and Sylvain Duplant on Bass. A detailed program will provide lyrics, historical asides, and, time permitting, a CD featuring a few of the show’s songs. Mood Area 52’s CD’s and merchandise will be available in the lobby. the show starts at 7:30 and features two 45 minute sets with a 15 minute intermission. Much of this new material will work its way into Mood Area 52’s upcoming album, tentatively entitled “First in Line to Get Stuck With a Pin.”
