January 31st 2009 - MV & EE, LP4 and WOLS!!! (with Eli Brumbaugh Poster)

WOW! Artist Eli Brumbaugh did this poster for us and we think it's jaw dropping! To really appreciate this poster I suggest you click on the image to enlarge it. You should make it a point to see this show as we're playing with two mind crushing bands:


MV & EE Are simply stunning! Are they playing a folky set, an trippy improvised psych set, or a heavy rocking set with The Golden Road? I have no Idea but I saw them last Year at Terrastock doing the latter two and they were freaking amazing. Highly recommended freaky psych folksters!

Wols is Amye McCarther's ragged improv beast that killed me last December. Not sure who is playing in it Will Adams (more than likely), Mlee Suprean (maybe), but whoever she drops it's gonna kill! The songs are Myspace are older songs but her skeletal compositions take wild turns and get get epic when they hit the stage. So point is don't be late!

Linus Pauling Quartet with our pals Ume! 19 December 2008 at Rudz!!

Wow the final LP4 show of the year.

Sorry if this all seems kind-of last minute but, ironically, we asked Ume to headline this show a long time ago; we simply had a lot of scheduling issues to overcome (holiday season and all). I'm a huge fan of Lauren's fretwork so playing with Ume for me is a thrill. The great thing is, despite a few crazy scheduling headaches, it's actually happening and, even better, it's free!!!!

By the way, that poster is by Michael C. Rodriguez. He's a local artist who I commissioned to do the show's poster. I've dug his work for some time and, happily, got to meet him recently. It turns out he's a nice guy to boot. This is something we're hoping to do more of in the future - working with local artists and commissioning posters, not only as a way to make our posters look better, but also as a way to highlight the talent here in Houston.

Anyhow, we hope to see you there and note that a few new songs will be making their debut.

Stoked!!!!!!! LP4 with MV & EE and Wols

Wooooo! I am stoked about our newest and only confirmed show (the previously mentioned Artstorm show has been pushed back to some as yet undetermined date in 2009). We are playing with MV & EE (Matt Valentine and Erika Elder) whose work I just love to death be it with the Golden Road or as a duo! That's pretty cool and awesome in and of itself but we're also playing with Wols (Amye McCarthur) which is just an amazing stroke of good fortune as she also is someone I admire greatly. I'm so stoked that I'm asking local artist Eli Sebastian Brumbaugh to do the poster artwork and looks like he might be able to swing one. YUSSS! So, mark your calendars:
