Countdown to Battle #4: L84dnr

Guitarist Gabe Corcoran and his friends in L84dnr are "a collection of happy idiots struggling for the legal tender," mostly by hitting open mic nights around North County.

They are also a quintet of old friends who decided to form a band in 2013 to have some fun while working on their classic-rock chops.

Jazz-metal bassist Ryan Garner, classically trained pianist Terry Kasper and Latin drummer Miguel Squires join Corcoran and Ken DeClue, "a couple guitarists off the Campire Circuit," in Corcoran's words.

The Transformation of Saint Lou

Lou Reed's classic New York hipster glare has been a favorite subject of artists from the first time Andy Warhol committed that stark, blank expression to film and silkscreen reproduction.

A half-century later and nearly two years after Reed's death, Oklahoma City artist Todd Bane has produced The Transformation of Saint Lou, a striking pencil-and-digital portrait of the man in his last few, frail months.

"I saw a great photo of Lou Reed shortly after he passed away in 2013, and it screamed at me to draw it," Banes wrote in his description of the piece. "This is a simple two-color painting, but the shadows and highlights make it look like more.

"The best way to experience this painting is to put on Lou's album Metal Machine Music at a deafening volume and just stare until the blackout happens. And it will," Banes says.

The drawing is part of Bane's CelebrityPortraits collection at Imagekind, an Internet gallery that features works of independent artists. Among his subjects are Joe Cocker, Frank Sinatra, Johnny Cash and other musicians and celebrities.

The Transformation of Saint Lou is available as an unframed print for $14. Imagekind does offer a variety of framing options to suit your needs.
