Hello wee ones,
We’ve been effectively summer dazing. Forgivsies? Here’s what’s up!
Speaker Jam Music reached out recently about working with us, and we are psyched to be repped by some very ambitious young guns in the licensing/publishing game.
Also, we’ll be playing Canteen Magazine’s Hot Authors afterparty event at 3rd Ward on Sept 16.
But more importantly, if...

Here’s the facebook event for our Union Hall show this Friday with Vanity Theft and People at Parties
VT is an all-girl rock group touring from Ohio. Supposedly their bassist was the chick from Lizzy Macguire who played Miranda, HD’s bestie. I for one, am excited. Also, this is the first bill we’ve shared with bands who weren’t all dudes. Fon!
People at Parties is...

Tigers x Billys
Some friends of ours from our college days have created this seriously ambitious project of combining every kind of creative artform to establish Billy & Co, a collaborative community that thrives upon its members’ contributions in theater, music, dance, and writing.
They say it better:
Our goal is to connect creative communities to produce theatre that reflects a more whole, more...

Here’s some shots from our gig at the Lomography store last week. Digital looks pretty good shot analog, don’t you think?
See the rest here.
tell you what,
Okay, we made it this far into 2011. Here is what has happened thus far:
Kick Kick Snare said some things.
So did Austin, TX.
And, you know, it’s winter. Give us a break.
But seriously. We aren’t that lazy. In fact, we’re playing two shows this week. Tomorrow at the Lomography Store in Greenwich Village we’re doing an in-store gig.
And then the next night, Friday the...

Oh look, if you weren’t at our Union Hall show this past January (and who would blame you- it was the coldest night of the year!) this is kind of what it was like. Looks like we’re wrecking your friend’s parents’ basement. I should probably put on some pants maybe (nahh).
[I was later informed by the venue that there was a BUNCH of...

BreakThru Radio taped our Pianos show last night.... →
Our guitarist was out of town in TX for Xmas, so it was a “solo” show with just Henry and me. Unfortunate, for the one show we’ve got recorded on tape, but it was fun anyway and stuff.
Disclaimer: some things may sound further than they appear. Like my vocals.

Last night we played Spike Hill again.
And here’s one from our Bell House show last week.
I’m realizing that too many venues have red curtain backdrops.

So we’re playing Spike Hill again Friday night at midnight. It will cost viewers no dollars.
Nightmare River Band is playing. So is Bellvue’s Finest. We went to school with like 2 of NRB’s members or something. Should be weird.

Ready SET
Yeah so this photo was (poorly) taken right before we went to town on The Bell House, last Wednesday night. We are getting amped up in the dressing room! Take note of how well Henry is wearing a Year of the Tiger t-shirt I printed just for him.
Look at those chains! I’m in fashion jail.
Just in case you were ever wondering, this is precisely what I pack for a show.
