Few musicians spend more time thinking and singing about sex than the raunchy American R&B artist known as Har Mar Superstar. His songs range from “Body Request” (about having sex) to “Power Lunch” (about having sex at lunch), and his live shows are high-energy, half-naked affairs. SoundProof recently had the chance to speak with Har Mar Superstar in support of our week-long, five-part feature, “Music & Sex” (which you can find here). What follows is full transcript of that conversation.
Full band featuring Josiah Steinbrick, Cornbread Compton, Tony Bevilacqua, Josh Klinghoffer, and Asa Taccone. RSVP ASAP @ http://viceland.com/summerfiesta/
LOS ANGELES: Har Mar Superstar / Marijuana Deathsquads will be the resident musicians at Spaceland (Satellite) every Friday in February. There will be special new guests each week, including Samantha Ronson (live band), P.O.S and Mike Mictlan of Doomtree, Giant Drag, and Shannon and the Clams. All shows will be $8 advance/ $10 at door. Tell your friends!
Har Mar Superstar will be promoting his new album — “Dark Touches” — at London’s Pure Groove records to get you all festive on the last day before the advent kicks in!
The fun starts at 1:00 PM, and it’s gonna be a special show!
“The interview took place on January 24, 2010. It was the night of Har Mar Superstar’s performance at Chop Suey in Seattle. It was also the night of the Vikings’ loss in the NFC Championship. I was supposed to meet Tillmann at the venue at 8pm, but the native Minnesotan was across the street at a pizza joint, where he had been watching the game.
For approximately 25 minutes, we had a conversation on a variety of topics, which spanned from death to Kool Keith and songwriting to starring in Ghostbusters 3.”
Oh my God! We just tore the soundstage of “Lopez Tonight” to shreds! It was the most fun I’ve ever had filming TV. See the carnage when it airs on Monday, August 9th. George Lopez himself and the crew were amazing, too. Thanks, guys.
