How does a mellow-yellow-fellow from the sun, named Gustafer Yellowgold, celebrate Earth’s holidays? Find out at the far-out, multimedia release party for the “Gustafer Yellowgold’s Year in the Day” DVD and CD set, on April 1 at 11 am at the 92YTribeca. New songs from the DVD will be performed live by Yellowgold creator Morgan Taylor and his band.
In this fifth DVD set featuring Yellowgold, the little, conehead sun-man is enjoying his new life in the Minnesota woodlands, and he’s celebrating a year’s worth of the Earth’s holidays in his own, unique way. Among the 11 music videos are “New is the New Old” and “A Shadow,” in honor of (need we say it?) Groundhog Day. In addition to the widely known holidays, such as Halloween, Yellowgold celebrates “unsung-about holidays,” including Fat Tuesday and Pancake Day in “Pancake Smackdown.”
“Year in the Day,” featuring Gustafer, BF Forest Applecrumbie and pet eel Slim (short for Slimothy), offers a unique blend of pop music and cartoons.
