THE SPOTLESS MIND Michel Gondry, dir. Focus Features *Song TELEVISION UNITED STATES OF TARA Steven Spielberg, prod. DreamWorks Television Craig Gillespie, dir. BIO DeLaughter’s career began in 1991 as vocalist/guitarist of the Dallas-based alternative rock band Tripping Daisy . Inspired by the Beatles’ psychedelic period, the group was signed to Island Records and released four acclaimed albums before disbanding as a result of the untimely death of guitarist Wes Berggren from a drug overdose in 1999. After leaving music for a brief time to start his family, DeLaughter soon found the lure of a return to performing and recording irresistible. The result was the Dallas symphonic pop group The Polyphonic Spree . Described as less a band than a happening, the group’s two dozen members perform in flowing white robes – an appropriate backdrop for their happy, uplifting musical message of catchy pop laced with gospel. The unusual group boasts a ten-member choir, a pair of keyboardists, a percussionist, bassist, guitarist, flautist, trumpeter, trombonist, violist, French horn player and even a theremin player, with DeLaughter serving as musical director, lead singer, and creative shaman. Generating huge interest with their performance at Austin’s South-by-Southwest music festival in 2002, the Spree were eventually hand-picked by David Bowie to play his Meltdown Festival at London’s Royal Festival Hall, and later signed to Hollywood The Gorfaine/Schwartz Agency, Inc.

  • Polyphonic Spree Hallelujah Time Everybod
    A high school production of Jesus Christ Superstar or annual Branch Davidian jamboree? Polyphonic Spree Hallelujah Time Everybody has voices in their head. Little angels and devils telling us to sing nice gospel tracks about God and videotape yourself having sex with your underage "goddaughter." For Tim DeLaughter, it wasn't a voice so much as a sound. The sound he heard made about as much logical sense as "If you build it, they will come" but has had nearly as magical effect on those who've witnessed his musical equivalent of a baseball diamond in a cornfield. Like anyone who has had a song lodged in their head, no matter how much you like it, it becomes a nuisance after while—backseat driver to all the other things you'd rather think about. A soundtrack that fits on one side of a 45 and loops the last groove into itself. You'd do anything to get it out of your head. So, DeLaughter did something remarkable. He rounded up a posse, and gave birth to one of the more intriguing musical phenomena to hit the scene since Parliament. This is the story of a troupe of 24 choir-robed freaks called the Polyphonic Spree. You might have seen them on the MTV Video Music Awards, introduced by Marilyn Manson who claimed the band was the love child spawned by him and co-presenter Mandy Moore. Maybe the news clip about the mic that was mistaken for a pipe bomb and shut down a major airport. Perhaps you caught them when they opened for David Bowie on his recent tour.

  • PERSEPHONE a Musical Allegory for the Stage by David Hoffman
    PERSEPHONE A Musical Allegory for the Stage By David Hoffman In Concert Performance www.PersephoneOnStage.com July 21, 2010 The Great Room The Alliance of Resident Theaters South Oxford Space This particular story was so important to all of those ancient Greek and Roman dumbbells of whom Ms. Wafers was so dismissive, that they made it the centerpiece, the very gospel, of their most important religious ceremonies – the Mysteries of Demeter at Eleusis – which were held outside of Athens for at least 2,000 years. The initiates at these ceremonies, who included every important classical philosopher, artist, and playwright, and every Roman Emperor until the rise of Christianity, were taught this story, and used it to guide them to a secret truth that they thought to be crucial to their successful entry into the afterlife. What, exactly, this secret was has remained secret (a fact that, itself, is remarkable considering the prolific literary output of those 2,000 years of initiates), but there are layers of importance, and of metaphor in the story that we can find without too much digging. One comes when we analyze Persephone’s motivations: why does she eat the damned pomegranate (literally, the pomegranate of the damned) in the first place? All the retellings of this story suggest that it is that conscious decision, not her initial abduction, that ties her forever to the world of the dead. She chooses to be there, for at least part of the year – to be the wife of this awful god who has abducted her. His approach was god-awful, for sure, but he is the second most powerful person in the universe, and he sees her not as a little girl but as his queen.
