Uncle Bonsai Music
Bizarre and outrageous, Uncle Bonsai was formed in Seattle in 1981 by three former Bennington College students: Andrew Ratshin, Ashley Kristin, and Arni Adler. Uncle Bonsai were a guitar and three part vocal outfit who specialized in singing the weirdest songs -- "Penis Envy," "Cheerleaders on Drugs" -- with sublimely angelic voices. During their eight year existence, Uncle Bonsai released three albums, A Lonely Grain of Corn, Boys Wants Sex in the Morning, and Myn Ynd Wymyn, the last two albums being live recordings. During their years together, the band members developed a strong grassroots base in Seattle and in 1988 began negotiations for a major recording deal. When the deal fell through, the band decided that they had had enough and formally split up. Ratshin subsequently went on to pursue a solo career under the name Electric Bonsai Band and has released I am Joe's Eyes. yellowtailrecords.com
