Darry Miller & The Veil CD Release

This Saturday at the Chameleon Club in Lancaster, Darry Miller & the Veil will be releasing their EP "Green" on Ripple Creative Records. Supporting acts include Leona Avenue, They Were Only Satellites, Ak-Maurice (also featured on the EP), The Beggar Folk, and Dooligus. Tickets are $10 in advance, and come with a complimentary copy of the EP at the door. Contact the band for ticket availability.

If you can't make it out Saturday, they will also be playing at my birthday show, at which they will be donating a percentage of CD sales to To Write Love On Her Arms. I will be working Saturday, but I'm picking up my copy at my birthday show, and should be posting a review here soon after. Be sure to come out to at least one of these shows and support good local music!

I'm Promoting My First Show

Hey kids!
On my 21st birthday (June 4th), I will be promoting my very first non-college-related show at The Auction House in Audubon, NJ. It will benefit To Write Love On Her Arms, a cause that means a great deal to me due to the struggles of people that I love. Music will be provided by Troubador, Letters From The Prom, Pennsylvania folk trio Darry Miller & The Veil, and local YouTube phenomenon Christina Grimmie and friends. Tickets will be $10, and you can RSVP on Facebook here. Be sure to get tickets in advance when they become available and/or arrive early, as this is an intimate venue that is sure to sell out!

On a related note, help make sure that I do not lose the ability to promote in Philly before I get started, and help support the indie and DIY promoters and venues that have been creating such an awesome scene for us there by signing this petition against a city council bill that would require official contracts and other paperwork to be submitted to the city for approval 30 days in advance of each event. We don't want the arts in the same hands as the SEPTA strike.

Peace, love, and rock'n'roll,
Foxy

Letters from the Prom - New Video

I returned from the SoCal tour with Letters from the Prom a while back, but this is the first opportunity I have had to update the site. Marc played some sick shows at Coffee Depot in Riverside and Viento y Agua in Long Beach, and the last day we stayed at the Atrium Hotel in Irvine. We spent hours relaxing by the beautiful pool, and shot this video for his tribute to The OC in one take:

First Leak off of OnCue Tape


The first track off of Cuey Sings the Blues samples Dave Matthews Crash Into Me for an introspective take on fame and the pursuit thereof. As mentioned previously, the upcoming tape will feature sample-based production drawing on indie, rock, and electro rather than more traditional hip-hop material. Check out the preview of the video below and download the track free at http://www.mynamecuey.com :
