All right! We made quite a splash at the Black Eyed Peas Gala at The Palladium and debuted an amazing new Flying Pyramid aerial number. Then we performed our little hearts out at the official Grammy's Celebration Party at the Staples / LA Convention Center. They didn't know what hit them! We love this night, we really get to stretch our wings and create unique entertainment. Phew!
On Tuesday night, February 9th, we will be doing a private event with one of our muses, Perry Farrell of Jane's Addiction, Porno for Pyros and founder of the Lollapalooza Festival.
Just as soon as we hang up the costumes and fill the prop shelves we continue our rehearsals for the BEST PARTY IN LOS ANGELES! LUCENT L'AMOUR is days away! We are preparing a very special dance and aerial performance that you've never seen before with music by Producer and DJ legend Kraddy fused with the awesome music stylings of Chris Komashko. Believe us when we say you don't want to miss this night. SO MUCH music and art amazingness going on at this event it's difficult to contain it all. After you check out all the amazing art and boogie down to an awesome DJ line up come find us on the outdoor stage at 11:11. (then keep going at it till 4am!) Tickets are available now at www.lucentlamour.com
What is Lucent L'amour you ask? Lucent L'amour is a festival that embraces the visual, architectural and performance arts as passionately as it does music and dance. It is the transformation of one night into a spontaneous combustion of love and mayhem. A creative synthesis of dance and electronic music, vaudeville performance, and street art into one multi-sensory experience. To create the fifth annual Lucent L'amour, The Do LaB is bringing you two stages of music and performanced, a cutting edge art gallery, live painters, larger-than-life interactive sculptures, and elaborate stage and environment designs from the west coasts leading artists.

............................ It is with a heavy heart that we had to say goodbye to our beautiful and talented web-designer and friend Andrea Burden. Life has a way to keep us on our toes: at any given time, no matter how blissful or tormented the moment, everything can shift in a breath and nothing will ever be the same. We at Lucent Dossier have been surfing a blissful wave and without notice the world looks very different for us... we had to say goodbye to a dear friend and valuable contributor to the magic that makes us who we are, beautiful Andrea made her transition into the light, this past December, quickly and without notice... we miss her dearly already.... We want to send love straight from our hearts to her two children, she was a radiant talent, a beautiful spirit, strong with love and we are so fortunate the world still has so much of her magical, mystical creations to be inspired by.... To see more of Andrea's art work and for information about donations for her children please go to: www.AndreaBurden.net

"Lucent Dossier is spinning a dream. Spin that web around us, too." ~NBC news
"A burst of energy and sexual tension. . . Lucent Dossier. . . RISQUE!" ~SPIN
"Best known for its Coachella water spectaculars, the circus troupe... reaches to the past and the future for its fantasy performances. Sepia-stained clowns, as if from an old-timey circus, teeter by on stilts. Dusty post apocalyptic warriors slither down from the sky on aerial silks. Sooty urchins of the Great Plague dance hypnotically. At a Lucent Dossier show you experience a world that doesn't exist, a place where the future and the past happen simultaneously, as if under some metaphorical big top in a David Lynch dream sequence." ~LA Weekly 2009 People Addition
The front cover The Las Vegas Review-Journal calls Lucent Dossier: "Mad, Twisted and Out of Control"

"Honestly, writing about Lucent Dossier is almost futile. They defy words, labels or categorizing. They are an experience. A feeling. A deep sense of joy... Next time you see that they are performing – Go! You will be happy you did." ~Victoria Lane, LA Metblogs
