9/25 show

8:15 AM / Posted by Laura Morocco / comments (0)


Remember the Brady Bunch Hawaiian vacation, three-part story line in season 4? Yeah, so do I. It's been weighing heavily on me recently. The whole part about Bobby messing around with Tiki figurines was only his first foray into the dark arts... that caused Greg's surfing accident, construction accidents, a spider attack and left the story line open for Don Ho and Sam Kapu to serenade Cindy (pervs). Like they say so often on BSG: "This has all happened before and it will happen again."

And now we've come full circle:
We have a show this Saturday night at Bar Bar (aka, cafe Carioca but no one calls it that), Denver's premier dive bar in the heart of five points. Earlier in the day we'll be re-recording a new version of "Last Time" at the Furnace Room.

If you don't see what this has to do with the three-part Hawaii special of the Brady Bunch, I suggest you take a fine literature and film class.

Weekend of Doom

Friday night we partied. Saturday and Sunday we recorded four songs at The Furnace Room. These will be on our 2nd 7", out in early fall on Raccoon Tycoon. We're also working on a video for one of these songs with Ryan Martin & Nick CelentanoThey did our last video and we're super psyched to work with them again.

Cheers,
Anthony

This weekend we're celebrating Michelle's move to a new house and then we'll be recording our second 7" at the furnace room with our pal Trevor.


On Thursday night we're playing a free show at the Skylark! I read that Melvil Dewey will be there (at least in spirit).

Record Release & Radio Show Weekend (close enough)

10:14 AM / Posted by Anonymous / comments (0)


We had a busy week! We played an awesome record release show with our friends, Ross Etherton & the Chariots of Judah and Black Sleep of Kali. It was fun; it was loud; and, we got rowdy.

The next day we drove up to Fort Collins to play KRFC 88.9's Live @ Lunch show. Greta (the trumpet player from 12 cents for Marvin) did a fantastic job interviewing us and we really couldn't have done it without Dennis -- the fabulous program director/sound engineer magician. Uh, at all. He also recorded the whole thing so we're talking about putting it on cassette.

New Album!

2:00 PM / Posted by Laura Morocco / comments (0)

This is the cover art for our up-coming EP, Night Moves. We just got our first round of test pressings and are looking forward to getting this out soon -- maybe early June? Our friend Clare took the photo in her really awesomely decorated house and I did all the lettering by hand in addition to the layout. I hope my 3rd grade teacher sees that I've retained most of the cursive skills she attempted to instill.

Side A:
The Odd Years
Idea of Me

Side B:
Arizona

Just a few Updates

12:49 PM / Posted by Anonymous / comments (0)

We have a show this week!


Also, we've been busy working on the video for "Falling In." It's getting close though we ran into a few snags (who knew that between two cameras we'd have such a discrepancy between wide and full screen aspect? Blaaaahhh). We do have some more ideas for videos so we have a few fun things for you to expect.

Speaking of fun things to expect: We spent last weekend recording some songs at the Furnace Room that we're planning to release as a 7".

Sorry for the lame update; I'll do better next time.

My Heart and the Real World

9:35 AM / Posted by Anonymous / comments (0)

Thanks again to everyone who came to our first show on December 12. We were psyched to have such a good turnout. Stacey took a few pictures with Jaren's camera. If you unfocus your eyes, you can see a sailboat.



If you missed us in December, you've got three upcoming chances to see us.

Jan 12 @ Surfside 7, Fort Collins
Jan 28 @ Larimer Lounge, Denver
Feb 6 @ The Meadowlark, Denver

We're also doing some more recording at the Furnace Room starting this month. Our shows will include a lot of stuff that will end up on the record, just like a real band.

The Furnace Room, Pt. I

4:17 PM / Posted by Anonymous / comments (0)

Yesterday we had our first recording session The Furnace Room. We were able to complete three songs (other than some background vocals, which we'll finish up soon). Trevor has agreed to be our George Martin, a position he will surely regret one day. Soon... audio.



Godzilla, meet Cheeseman.
