ACE OF CUPS - Mill Valley Film Festival

The Ace of Cups formed in San Francisco in 1967 and have been described as one of the first all-female rock bands. Mary Gannon, Marla Hunt, Denise Kaufman, Mary Ellen Simpson, and Diane Vitalich found each other during the height of the Haight-Ashbury scene, making their mark in the burgeoning counterculture of the 1960s, with a psychedelic soul sound and soaring harmonies, sharing stages with Jimi Hendrix, Jefferson Airplane, and The Grateful Dead. They broke up four years later and never released an album…until now. Catch the original line-up on tour with their first album—ever!

Our ‘Cups runneth over! Ace of Cups appears in the film YOU SAY YOU WANT A REVOLUTION?, screening at the Sequoia in conjunction with this live show.

ABOUT:
An evening of songs, stories and celebration. Learn about the rich story of this unique band that began in 1966 in an apartment on Waller Street in San Francisco. This intimate gathering will feature an interactive blend of live music and an extended panel discussion with the members of the Ace of Cups—all women 70 and over—and special guest appearances from luminaries from the 60s era. The evening will also include rare video—archival and contemporary.

The Ace of Cups was legendary from the beginning—five uniquely talented women writing fantastic songs, rocking as hard as any band at the time and harmonizing like psychedelic angels. The Ace of Cups performed with fellow artists such as The Band, Jefferson Airplane, the Grateful Dead, Quicksilver Messenger Service; even Jimi Hendrix was an avowed fan. Despite eliciting music industry interest for their exceptional songs, sublime harmonies and exuberant live performances, the Ace of Cups never got a chance to make a record of their own. Until now … 

With the enthusiastic support of High Moon Records, and under the guidance of celebrated producer Dan Shea, four of the band’s original members holed up in San Rafael’s Laughing Tiger Studios to record gems from their back catalog and newly composed material that is as timely as it is timeless. Their self-titled debut album blends pure rock, folk, blues and gospel influences with a pop sensibility and a garage band rush—all tinted by an intoxicating psychedelic sheen. As news spread that the Cups were recording, old friends—including Bob Weir, Buffy Sainte-Marie, Taj Mahal, Jorma Kaukonen and Jack Casady—began to come by the studio to offer support and musical contributions. Thirty-six songs were recorded, and what started out as a chance to set the record straight has turned into a history-making second act. You can read more about the history here.
