100mNYC COMPILATION - VARIOUS ARTISTS
Released January 26, 2010

To celebrate our first 10 releases, we are pleased to announce the 100mNYC compilation of artists from the New York underground.

"Somber, heartfelt and sublime." - 3Hive

“A singer whose breathy, visceral voice is matched only by the 21st-century downtempo electro-pop that backs her up.“ - XLR8R

"Complex and remarkably accessible, atmospheric yet earthy, sparse acoustic instrumentation cutting through dense arrangements." - Lucid Culture

shows keep getting better and better. 

oh, and the drums on "I need a gun" probably shattered dane cook's face. so i guess you can't leave the jokes to him after all.

please continue to save the world.

Saw you for the first time at Schuba's last week, thought you were fantastic. But I can't find the song you guys did where you're talking about beehives? It was my favorite. Can you let me know what it's called, or if it's a cover or something?

Thanks!

Hello!

I just wanted to stop by to say hello and give you a little update on what Blood Root Mother is up to! We will be recording an EP of new music in August, and we recently finished recording a live DVD. The DVD is currently unreleased and I actually just saw it for the first time a few days ago. It features the last two performances with Tony Ellis still alive, and some footage from the tribute show we played on the night of his funeral.

There are some cool covers, as well as some NEW music that will be on our upcoming EP. We're very excited about the new music and we'd like to share a sneak peak with you. Here's a video of a new tune called Run Bobby Run:






Let us know what you think!

Peace,
Elliot
