   About Aleson Tap
New to the Portland music scene, Aleson Tap has made their musical debut with "Somersglow", a four-track EP recorded in spring of 2006. Straightforward vocals with intricate instrumentals add taste and edge to the album. Led by virtuosic brothers Logan and Lucas, with flavorfully modern rock beats by Chris, and tied together by Aaron's ear for musical movement, this group will be making their presence known throughout the area.

I think you guys should have a concert in Albuquerque New Mexico. The last time I was in Portland visiting family you guys played at the charity BBQ and I fell in love with your music and I think it would be awesome if you guys had a concert here in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Keep up the great music!

i cannot believe that I, the esteemed fan club president, must miss an aleson tap show because of a class. this is an egregious fault and I must personally apologize to each and every member of the aleson tap fan base.

Ya know, I heard that there was a pretty hot girl playing drums for you at some birthday party recently. You should really think about having her take Chris' place with all the carpal tunnel stuff going on. She would bring an element of awesomeness to everything :)

Hey guys. Im not so sure if you can play at the casinos. Also, half of my friends aren't 18 and cant get in. We have an outdoor ampitheatre that you could look into using if you would like. e dont get alot of use out of it so it would probably be cheap. I dunno. Also if you guys are open on the 16th you could come play for my graduation party. There is going to be alot of people there and my Dad has been talking about hiring a band.

Good luck with your music guys, I totally support you!
Sam





May 11 2007 5:28 PM

Hey guys, this is Nick. I met you at the Hawthorne Theatre during your Wednesday show. Just wanted to say hey and thank you so much for writing "Great Divide". It is an incredible song. Im looking forward to hearing the sympathy song :p
