Melanoid & Toy Robot


We played The Continental Room last night. It was Mother's Day, but only a few mothers actually showed up. We were all disappointed.

We weren't disappointed for long though because it's super hard not to be in a fantastic mood once Melanoid and Toy Robot start playing! If you're not in the know about these 2 bands then you have some fun homework to do! Check them out right now! To get you started here are some videos...

Both these bands played amazing sets and we are truly lucky to have shared the stage with them! We had a great time and we would like to thank everyone for coming out staying late! It was a great time!

April, You've Been So Good


So we are having a fun and crazy month. April hasn't let us down yet. The OC Tavern show with Big Bad Wolf, and the amazing Billy Kernkamp didn't disappoint. Not even a little. I'm sure some pictures will be making their way up in the photo section at some point... but what we're really excited about is this trippy, fade happy, split screen loving DVD the sound guy was nice enough to make for, us eventually finding it's way to this page. Hopefully soon.

Then after a crazy weekend in Coachella I made my way back to Orange County so we could play the I Promote Good Bands showcase at Proof Bar in Santa Ana. Argyle Smile showcased their new guitarist, and Regrets and Brunettes played a super solid set. Then we got up there and did what we do... drink jack and cokes while playing songs in front of people. I think we pulled it off. It was a super fun show.

So now we have a couple shows in May coming up BUT before that, we have our final goodbye show for April. Goodbye April... you were good to us so we're sending you off right with some Honeypie, and Son Of Heatwave at The Sandpiper (AKA The Dirty Bird) Monday the 26th. Should be one dive bar full of happy-go-lucky barflys that night. If the shows this month are any indicator... this will be one badass time. We've been lucky as shit with the turn out and response at the shows lately. We love you.

ALSO! Today is Roozie's birthday! He is choosing to spend it at Detroit Bar with the Everyday Noise Launch Party! Honeypie is playing a set, and Davy is the house DJ all night! Tell that kid you love him. We do.

See you soon and keep your eyes and ears open and ready for some new stuff we're working on.

love,

MS Benefit In Review

The two reviews only mention us, but they were glaringly different and I felt like both were good to post! So here it is... two reviews of the same show by OC Weekly.

1. Thoughts on Stereofix...

2. MS Benefit at the Yost...

This show was a lot of fun! And we are all thankful we could be a part of it! Not only have we been looking for an opportunity to play The Yost, but to be invited to help raise money for a worthy cause like MS is really the type of thing we love to be a part of. So thank you Steve Guzman, and Kyler Locke and everyone else who helped, for letting us play!
Here are some pictures from that night...Love,

New Album by The New Limb, and MS Benefit Show Art


Last night, Trisha, Tyler and myself went to "The Birdhouse" to listen to our friend's, The New Limb, first full length album called "Sounds People Can Hear." I'll say right now, it sounded awesome. I can't wait to get my giant bear paws on it. The listening party only made me more excited for their album release show at The House of Blues Anaheim on April 3rd.

BUT on April 2nd there is another great show going on a city away in Santa Ana at The Yost Theater. Braving the mean streets of Santa Ana will be Stereofix, Stacy Clark, Beta Wolf, The Relative Strangers, We Are The Pilots, Brother Cecil, and I Hate You Just Kidding. All proceeds from this show will go to the National MS Society to help fund ongoing research. So if you've been meaning to come out and support, this would be the night to do it. Not only support local music, but support the National MS Society. See you there!

April Shows!

April is going to be a SUPER busy month of good times and great times.

We have 4 shows coming up in April, and the first one is on April 2nd at The Yost Theater in Santa Ana, CA. It is a benefit show to help raise money and awareness for MS.

Just wanted to throw a quick update about that show because we feel like it is an important show to be a part of. We'll post a longer more detailed post in the future but for now if you would like more info on MS and what you can do to help please go to www.nationalmssociety.org and just check things out!

Take care!

Love,
Kyle
