Get ready for GUSTAFER YELLOWGOLD'S MELLOW FEVER!
Gustafer Yellowgold concerts are a unique blend of live music and
moving image. The minimally animated illustrations are accompanied by
illustrator/songwriter Morgan Taylors catchy and original story-songs
for a truly different multimedia experience that is entrancing
children, teens and adults alike.
Gustafer is a friendly creature who came to Earth from the sun and has
an unusual magnetism for making friends with some of Earth's odder
creatures. His best friend is Forrest Applecrumbie the flightless
Pterodactyl. Gustafer and Forrest built a small cottage-style home on
the edge of an uncharted wooded area in Minnesota. He has a pet Eel
named Slim (short for Slimothy) and a pet Dragon named Asparagus who
lives in his fireplace and loves corn on the cob. Gustafer's pals, the
Mustard Slugs practice their math under the shrubbery.
Since his creation in 2005, Gustafer Yellowgold has become an
international phenomenon, acclaimed by the New York Times, which said,
The show is a cross between Yellow Submarine and Dr. Seuss.
Entertainment Weekly praised
The most infectious original songs. Its like tapping into some
pleasure center in the brain- both adult and kid
absurdly appealing. Grade: A. New York Magazine named Morgan Taylor
Best Kids Performer in its 2008 Best of New York Awards.
The Gustafer Yellowgold Show, with its unique crossover appeal, has
performed as the wild-card opening act for Wilco and The Polyphonic
Spree. Gustafer recently made his off-Broadway debut at the DR2
Theatre in a new show, Gustafer Yellowgolds Mellow Sensation. Tours
to arts centers, childrens museums, schools, libraries, cinemas and
theaters have taken the show all across the United States, the U.K and
even Korea! Taylor's other projects include playing bass for The
Autumn Defense (featuring John and Pat from Wilco), as well as a
recording project with Tony Award-winning songwriter Duncan Sheik.
