xxI have known Alan McCabe since high school, where we sat together at lunch. Our lunch WITH table was an odd mix of people; musicians, misﬁ ts, a guy who would go on to be a preach-

xxer and a guy who sat every lunch period with his head on the table and never spoke a word. Maybe it was some sort of omen for the future. Almost twenty years later, and

xxAlan is still surrounded by musicians, misﬁ ts, and yeah, he’s still friends with the guy with his head on the table. HEADFLAPxxxx In this time, Alan and friends have made nine full albums, and a number of smaller re-

xxxxleases. Most of of these were done under the moniker Bernie Bernie Headﬂ ap, with a ro- tating cast of members. Alan suffers from a disease called Cystinosis, a rare genetic condi-

xxxxtion that has caused the deterioration of his eye sight, as well as causing him to go through three kidney transplants throughout his life. Complications with the disease and surger-

xxxxies have made Alan almost blind, stunted his growth and made him unable to play guitar

(in the traditional manner). x

xxxxxx

x This led Alan to creating music on his computer as well as learning how to use and incor-

xxxxxx

porating a synth guitar. Eventually, handicaps left him unable to play live music for x many years. In this time he recorded and released several albums made at home on his

xxxxxx computer. Now Alan is able to go out and play live again, with his new band, just called x Headﬂ ap, consisting of Kermit Lyman III, Kevin Cooper and Zach Price. He also runs

x xxxxxxhis own record label, Human in Human Records, where he releases his own music as well

as local artists, and has now begun work on releasing music from other artists who make x xxxxxxmusic despite their handicaps. Greatly inﬂ uenced by the Talking Heads, Pixies and all

things Robert Fripp, Alan’s music is fun, quirky, rocking, and often haunting. x
