7/8: Sexy Songstress Candye Kane and Big Burlesque Join Forces for a
Night of Big Big Fun!
An Intimate Evening of Excess with big beautiful bodacious bisexual
blues diva Candye Kane and Big Burlesque, the Original Fat-Bottom
Revue. Two unforgettable performance sensations bring their big big
talents to the Center for Sex & Culture for one night only on July
8th! Candye Kane, porn starlet-turned-singer, promises a one-of-a-
kind show as she performs dirty songs and bawdy ballads from the
1920s to the present. Candy's newest album, White Trash Girl (RUF
Records), follows her other cult classics, Whole Lotta Love, The
Toughest Girl Alive, Swango, Diva La Grande, Knockout, and Home
Cookin'. Candye joins us with her pianist Sue Palmer. Signed CDs will
be available from Candye at the event.
The Washington Post says that Ms. Kane's voice is "a natural wonder
like the Grand Canyon." Candye describes her style as "Mississippi
by way of Las Vegas with a quick stopover in San Francisco." She has
headlined the Monterey and San Francisco Blues Festivals, performed
with many celebrities including k.d. lang and Lea Delaria, and
appeared on Queer as Folk.
Joining Candye on the stage: the Big Burlesque dancers, fresh from a
photo shoot with Leonard Nimoy! The Fat-Bottom Revue brings together
big women who'll bump and grind their way right into your hearts. "A
fun-filled burlesque show featuring women of size," said the San
Francisco Chronicle. Big Burlesque has won Best of the Bay (2003) as
well as the San Francisco Sex Worker Film Festival Award for
Outstanding Contributions to the Sex-Positive Community.
The Center for Sex & Culture is located at the SF Epicenter, 398 11th
