Mr. Ray
Mr. Ray is a Beijing-based post-punk and no wave trio, formed by Liu Lu (vocals & guitar), Han Minkai (bass) and Qu Xing (drums) at the beginning of 2011. They are one of the first bands to grow up on stage during D-22’s famed Zoomin’ Night and their music is influenced by the famed no wave, post-punk and krautrock bands of the 1970s and 80s such as Pere Ubu, D.N.A., Pop Group, Joy Division, and The Birthday Party. True to the collaborative spirit of Zoomin’ Night, Mr. Ray’s sound is equally influenced by the other bands they shared a stage with at D-22.
The band’s Douban site gives this self-description: “He likes doing nothing, she likes dreaming. I like putting the phone in the fridge.” No matter what this means to you, Mr. Ray’s noisy show and compelling multicultural pedigree harkens back to the best underground groups of early-1980s New York.
Wooozy Sessions
Wooozy Sessions is a monthly event brought to you by the good people at Wooozy.cn and Yuyintang. Started in July of 2011, the organisers of Wooozy Sessions invite a band from outside of Shanghai to play a show on the second Thursday of each month. This project’s initiative is to provide a platform for young, emerging bands to develop their sounds and expand their musical horizons. It is specifically for those bands that can’t make it to Shanghai due to financial reasons or a lack of promotion.
We hope the Wooozy Sessions can provide a gateway to the music fans in Shanghai as to what the young and creative kids in other cities have to offer.
We will be donating part of the profits after every showcase to Shiyi Gongyi, a Beijing-based charity organization that works to provide healthcare to underprivileged children.

关于Mr. Ray
乐队试听地址：http://site.douban.com/mystery/
Mr. Ray是一支来自北京的后朋/无浪潮三人乐队，由吉他手兼主唱刘璐、贝斯手韩旻锴和鼓手曲鑫组成。他们成立于2011年2月，随后在D22的噪眠夜系列迅速成长起来。乐队风格深受Pere Ubu, D.N.A., Pop Group, Joy Division, The Birthday Party等上世纪7、80年代后朋、无浪潮和Kraut Rock乐队的影响，也被噪眠夜中其他乐队不断激励着。
他们的豆瓣音乐人里有着这样一句似是而非的简介：他喜欢呆着，她喜欢做梦，我喜欢把电话放在冰箱里。而他们狂躁的现场，将把你带回上世纪80年代那个纽约东部的地下世界。
无解现场简介：
“无解现场”是由无解音乐网和育音堂共同推出的一个月度系列演出。每个月第二周的周四晚上，我们会邀请一个上海以外城市的乐队，来上海育音堂进行专场的表演。邀请到的乐队都是一些无解音乐网平时比较关注和看好，但一直没有机会来上海演出的国内乐队。
无解音乐网（www.wooozy.cn）是一个独立音乐资讯网站，关注国内外最新和最好的音乐。
我们希望“无解现场”能作为一个平台，让上海的乐迷接触到更多新的声音和新的想法，同时也希望能在上海和其他城市音乐人之间擦出一些灵感的火花。
同时，该系列演出会和北京的公益组织拾壹公益合作，在演出盈利的情况下，捐献出部分票房，致力于贫困儿童医疗帮扶。
拾壹公益 简介
拾壹公益成立于2010年12月31日，是致力于贫困儿童医疗帮扶的网络平台。我们的工作是推广公益理念、整合公益力量，为贫困患病儿童及其家庭提供包括联系申请基金会帮助、网络募捐、心理帮扶等一系列的帮助。希望通过我们的努力，能使公益理念为更多人所熟悉，让民间的公益行动走向规范化，成为生活常态。
