I moved to L.A. two years ago, I had a major publishing/development deal, I had an advance, I had a producer, I had a manager, I had a model girlfriend...and I walked away from it all. I left it all behind because it was lame and not real and didn't make me happy. Now I'm home and so happy being here...nothing like it in the world. I hang with my family and friends, I write, I laugh, I work a 9-5 and I love it. I learned a lot about myself, life and other people. I learned what is important and what isn't. Hope you enjoy my music. It comes from my experiences over the last two years.
Dana Fishel Labb's "ep" will be released through itunes this Fall. He will be playing selected cities starting with a Boston Show in November along with his sister EJ Labb. Watch for details on the LABB'S HOMECOMING THROWDOWN.
Hope to see you tonight at our cancer research benefit show!
100% of the proceeds go towards funding cancer research.
We're really looking forward to the benefit event tonight. We've been covered in the Boston Globe, Boston Herald, Boston Phoenix, Boston Metro, Improper Bostonian, and Weekly Dig. We're getting plugged on WBCN, WAAF, WFNX, KISS108, and a bunch of college stations.
LB from WAAF (and formerly the Bruins) will be there tonight.
TIME & LOCATION: Doors are at 8:30pm. Oliver's in the Cask & Flagon is at 62 Brookline Ave in Boston (Kenmore stop on Green Line)
PRIZES: Get there early because we'll be giving away prizes all night. There will be a table where you can read about the prizes and get prize tickets.
RED CARPET PHOTOS: We'll have a red carpet area and a photographer on hand to take photos of you, your friends, the bands, whoever...we'll be posting them online after the event.
DRESS UP: A bunch of people (bands, volunteers, and attendees) are dressing in track/running outfits at the show, so if you feel so inclined, join in the fun! Shorts, wristbands, headbands, sleeveless shirts, sneakers, etc.
See you tonight!
Cheers, Andy, Jen, The Vital Might, Build a Machine, Forgetful Jones, and Spectator
