SCREW CUPID
Three of Berg's tunes ("Still Here Waiting", "Bittersweet" and "Angels & Devils") are featured in the film Screw Cupid (written and directed by Sanjeev Sirpal; starring Chris Boyd and Mircea Monroe). Here are some still pics from the movie:
WHO IS BERG?
A native of Gainesville, Florida, Berg is a nationally touring singer-songwriter based in New York City. He likes peanut butter, Apple computers, amusing himself with stupid jokes, and supporting his friends and fellow indie artists.
STYLE
Berg blends acoustic roots, folk and alternative rock with crafty lyrics and a pinch of pop sensibility... a recipe for engaging songs with artistic flare.
STAGE DAZE
Berg has shared the stage with national acts Shawn Mullins, Stroke 9, Brian Vander Ark (The Verve Pipe) and Big 10-4, as well as independent acts Gary Pfaff, Five Star Iris, Big Sky and Woodale, and singer-songwriters Ernie Halter, Akiva, Heather Combs, Eric Skelton, Chuck Carrier, Dean Fields, Ashton Allen and Dave Pittenger. Berg has showcased at the prestigious Atlantis Music Conference (Atlanta, GA) and performed at such venues as The Knitting Factory (New York City), The Living Room (New York City), Genghis Cohen (Los Angeles), Uncommon Ground (Chicago, IL), Eddie's Attic (Atlanta) and Lestat's (San Diego).
BELIEVING & BEING
Berg is currently on-tour in support of his EP, Believing & Being, produced by Gary Pfaff and Tim Delaney at Electron Gardens Studio in Atlanta. The disc features three tunes - "Still Here Waiting", "Bittersweet" and "Angels & Devils" - that also appear on the original motion picture soundtrack for the film, Screw Cupid, written and directed by Sanjeev Sirpal. Other tracks on the EP include: "Over You," "Maybe You, Maybe Me," and "Chasing Tomorrow." The EP is available for purchase at shows, on Berg's MySpace page, and through online vendors such as iTunes, Napster, Rhapsody and many more.
Thanks for the big hug!!! oh i miss you so much!!!!! i hear you will be in nashvegas soon! OOOOH so more road trips and more berg time im sure :) hehe MISS YOU!!! BIG HUGS to YOU too!!!!
hey there, I haven't been on myspace in forever but I just got your comment, thank you so much! It has been a long while, I hope things are going well for you! It looks like you have been to some awesome places! Keep in touch =)
Glad to see that someone isn't a stranger to the Florida sun. All these artists from TRB that are currently touring keep skipping right over us, with the exception of Wideawake and Benjy Davis, but they played/are playing North Florida, so it doesn't count. :P (And Sister Hazel of course played, but that's normal giving their roots.)
I am indeed booked on TRB X and I couldn't possibly be anymore excited! And next year if we cross paths, at least I'll be able to recognize you! :)
So, you've been one of my 'myspace friends' for quite a long time now. I don't quite recall the circmstances that introduced me to your music, but I'm listening to your sampler that I got on The Rock Boat and I'm really enjoying it. I just wanted to let you know. :)
It was good seeing y'all on the Boat! Thanks for the show too - especially since you rocked some Never Looking Back and Walk Away for us. ;) Let us know when you'll be back in the ATL or the Carolinas. Take care!!!
Well, your name is alphabetically first on my Itunes, which means I do not have any AC/DC, unfortunately, but I've come to find "Still Here Waiting" is a nice track.
In just a couple of weeks half of Columbia will be in NY to see y'all. Are you ready for the invasion? Do you think NY is ready? Make sure they take lots of pictures for me.
hey hows New York treating you? I want to move back so bad.... I will be there next summer for two weeks... Hope all is well.... and that it cooled down a bit....
Yeah man that was a pretty sweet time. Everything in Wisconsin, as far as my little corner, is moving along smoothly. As for the rest of the state, it's kind of hard to tell. And how's about the state you're in?
next year we should have a reunion at Disney world!! haha :) no seriously! you up for that? or mtn trip for a long weekend...you, akiva, dave, whoever else!! jason!!
