Coal, Cotton & Dust Tour

A Local Show This Sunday!

July 28th, 2010

We just got back from a two week tour in the hot and humid South East. We had the pleasure of visiting old friends and making new ones in Bristol, TN, Charlotte, NC, Thomas, WV, Aberdeen, NC, Frankfort, KY, Floyd, VA, and Baltimore, MD.

The highlights of the trip would have to have been the the grueling ping pong tournament at the Rooster’s Wife between Aller, Neil, and Aaron, and of course Floyd Fest. At Floyd Fest we had the honor of playing on the same stage as Levon Helm, Old Crow Medicine Show, Deer Tick, Low Anthem, Grace Potter and the Nocturnals, and Joe Pug.

A Big Big shout out to all of our friends who played amazingly kick ass shows at the Festival. Rising Appalachia blew us away with their stunning beauty, soulful music, and tribal face paint. The Two Man Gentleman Band had us in tears of laughter as usual. The Holy Ghost Tent Revival added a trumpet player and melted too many faces to count. Christabelle And The Jons and Miss Tess and the Bon Ton Parade made people weak at the knees with their gorgeous voices and tasty playing. The boys from the Wiyos inspired us to go practice more so we can one day be half as good as them.

Now on to the shameless promotion……

We’ll be playing at the
Walnut Room this Sunday, August 1st,
with Fishtank Ensemble. The Fishtank Ensemble is kinda of like if you went on a backpacking trip in Eastern Europe with a gallon of 5 Hour Energy Drink and all you did was go do dance clubs. They do an astonishing unique blend of Romanian, Gypsy jazz, Flamenco, Balkan, Turkish and Tango. We hope to see you there!

Pre-order/Fundraising

July 1st, 2010

Pics from the Studio!

Hey there Ladies and Gents!

We just got through tracking at Macy Sound Studios with Jefferson Hamer. Here’s some picture’s Aaron took with his hipstamatic application on his iPhone, because regular pictures are not as cool.

We’re doing well with our fundraising right now, but we’re still short the dollars for mixing and printing. We need about $2,000 to really make this project happen. Thanks so much to everyone that got involved, and if you haven’t yet, head on over to our sponsorship page and check out the options. We’ve got pre-sales and lots of other goodies, including a ukulele brunch(in which we show up at your house and cook you a delicious breakfast and then serenade you with our ukuleles). So check it out!
