Diana Tamblyn announces she is publishing a new comic to accompany a concert by avant-garde music combo Toca Loca. The group is performing at the Music Gallery in Toronto on Friday.
According to Tamblyn, "Because their music is non standard, I decided to throw out a traditional narrative that I was working on in favour of a more experimental work. I'm pretty pleased with the result. It's going to be a square format (like Poor Sailor), with one illustration per page."
Toca Loca

They will never wear three-piece seventeen-button
suits with matching ascots, and will never fill tour
buses full of eager artistic consumers from Buffalo or
Detroit, but Toca Loca continues to defy gravity and
the musical elite as they bring you their latest,

experience again:
