- Cult favorite John Lumia has made his mark as one of the premiere subculture-solo artists in the nation. Known for his unique, visceral performance style and provocative material. Lumia's pioneering efforts in "fusion media" comedy performance have placed him at the forefront of the convergent media performance genre.
Lumia's solo style combines outrageous socio-cultural character monologues with mind-bending visuals and soundscapes created by Bill Reim, President of music Industry powerhouse Ibanez music.
Solo shows include: "SpinCycle", "Amputation Nation", "Cryptome" and "AntiMatter".
A veteran of stage and film, John is known for his eccentric and offbeat character portrayals, and chameleon like versatility. Critics have called Lumia "an information age Bill Hicks", "Video Culture to the Extreme" and he was recently lauded as having "emerged as one of the most consistent and compelling performers" on the new media landscape by Backstage Magazine.
