The text below is from the Facebook event page for the upcoming F to (e)Mbody performance.

About the performers (in their own words):Harvey Katz (aka Athens Boys Choir) performs gender-deviant, multi-media, spoken word/homo-hop. The name is a bit deceiving, but you can't blame a Jewish Transsexual living in the Deep South for having a sense of humor about it. His lyrics are heart-on-the-sleeve and his beats are undeniably gay-in-the-pants.

Katastrophe (aka Rocco Kayiatos) is a San Francisco based rapper and producer. He uses his poetic grasp of language to weave dense tales of lives lived outside the mainstreams of education, gender, and culture. His hip-hop explodes with passion, crafting both dark anthems of anxiety and righteous rage, and sexy, flirtatious, booty-shaking bangers.

They have hit the stage with such notable artists as The Gossip, Ani Difranco, Saul Williams, Alix Olson, Le Tigre, The Indigo Girls, John Cameron Mitchell, Poets from HBO’s Def Poetry Jam, and More.
