Behind the Scenes - Alvin Ailey Showcase



After a long drive and a late night at Gabby's house, we literally saw the light at the end of the tunnel. On the other side? Manhattan!







Gabby's sister Jenel picked out her outfit, so when Gabby tried it on ... let's just say there was a wardrobe malfunction or two that led to us spending the day at the mall.










But by showtime, all was right! Gabby doesn't really wear dresses... everyone at the show was trying to figure out why.












Trevor got used to the idea of wearing stage makeup real quick when the models started talking to him.

New York, New York

So, a quick update, the show in New York went really well. I think it'll open a lot of doors for the band.
In case you missed last weekend's show, we'll be playing in New York again this weekend at a pool party in Amityville with Red Ink. You can get more info by emailing us, devilleinfo [at] gmail [dot] com.
We're looking forward to it -- it should be a good time, lots of fun to be had.
Pictures from the weekend coming soon!

Love,
The Guitar Guy

P.S. Did I mention we have tracks up on our MySpace? Comment away!

Hot Traxxx

Whoa!  It's been a whirlwind week in the studio getting demos together, but after a few marathon nights recording and a sprint across the mixing board, we have samples you can listen to!  
Our first releases are "Big Mistake" and "Same Sad Love Song."  The tracks show some of the different sides of our style -- "Big Mistake" is punk-inspired and energetic, "Same Sad Love Song" is our version of hard rock heartache.
Check them out on MySpace for now, Facebook is coming soon!

Love,
The Band

P.S. First show tomorrow night in New York!  Get stoked!  We'll have pictures from the trip up next week.  We're going to have a rockin' weekend, hope you do too!

Getting Closer...

Hello everyone!

Things are getting really exciting right now. We have our shows coming up in New York, we'll have a pair of demos for you to listen to either today or tomorrow, and now that we're done for a minute in the studio, I get to go to bed kind of early! HOORAY!

But really, we're very excited for people to hear our music -- you'll be able to hear it on our MySpace profile and on our Facebook page. we know it's tough to say you're a fan if you don't know what we sound like. And honestly, we want to know what you think we sound like. We have some serious trouble trying to compare our sound to other bands...

Have a good one! Come check us out NOW. This lady says so:




Love, Ian

Studio Time

Hey there everybody!
So we spent a tonight running a marathon in the studio.  A few hours and a few portions of Chinese food later, we're on the verge of having some listenable material for you!  [insert wild applause here]
But it's late now, and my fingertips are sore.

Much love!
Ian and the band
