The sound of silence
is all the instruction
you’ll get

by: Jack Kerouac

Like other “Beat Poets”, Jack Kerouac was attracted to Eastern philosophy, perception, and poetry. Together with Ginsberg and Whalen, he helped “Americanise” the haiku form and introduce it to a wider audience outside of Japan.

“The American Haiku is not exactly the Japanese Haiku. The Japanese Haiku is strictly disciplined to seventeen syllables but since the language structure is different I don’t think American Haikus (short three-line poems intended to be completely packed with Void of Whole) should worry about syllables because American speech is something again…bursting to pop.
Above all, a Haiku must be very simple and free of all poetic trickery and make a little picture and yet be as airy and graceful as a Vivaldi Pastorella.”
(Kerouac)

Immortalisé sous le nom de Dean Moriarty par Jack Kerouac dans son roman épique, Sur la route, Neal Cassady était tristement célèbre pour son énergie et son charme irrésistibles, son sens de la débrouille et son attitude provocatrice. Ami précieux et compagnon de route de Kerouac, Allen Ginsberg, William Burroughs et Ken Kesey, Cassady vivait pleinement sa vie, prêt à s'inspirer à tout moment. Première jeunesse est le premier tiers de son autobiographie, publiée en 1971.

No Thanks, Man is the solo work of Geraldine Espino — a musical vagabond, modern beatnik and polite revolutionary who is redefining the boundaries of music.

These songs are a testament to Espino's ability to craft songs that transcend traditional genres. It's a musical journey that takes unexpected twists and turns, keeping listeners engaged from start to finish. The fusion of old and new elements, along with introspective lyrics, makes No Thanks, Man a standout in the contemporary music scene.

Geraldine Espino, the creative force behind No Thanks, Man, is a recording artist currently based in New Orleans, LA. Her deep and resonant vocals cut through percussive melodies and unexpected instrumentation, resulting in a sound that is both haunting and uplifting.

No Thanks, Man has already made waves with previous releases, including "Away Already," which was featured as the song of the week on Pandora's AMP: Fresh Cuts Radio. With the debut full-length album, "Empty & Awake," on the horizon, No Thanks, Man is poised to make an even bigger impact in the music world.
