Most of the time we are three friends who like to play music for you. Sometimes it's two of us, other times it's just Fran. On rare occasions, there are a whole bunch of folks with us. You can book us by e-mailing Frances at miss.franberry@gmail.com .
I dare you to message me your mailing address.
WE HAVE A NEW RECORD! IT SHOULD BE READY TO GO BY MID-NOV.
Unfortunately, we are SOLD OUT of the following: The Goth Tape (Whitman/Stellaluna cassette split 2008), EEP! EP (2008), My Heart is an Anchor EP (2008), and EEK! EP (2009). HOWEVER, you can still get my 7-song release called "My Heart is an Anchor" via Folktale Records: www.folktalerecords.com !
It's an inside joke, haha. But, this is our Disneyland plan. JANUARY 28TH: LEAVE FOR ANAHEIM, CALIFORNIA. JANUARY 29TH: DISNEYLAND FOR THE ENTIRE DAY. JANUARY 30TH: DISNEYLAND FOR THE ENTIRE DAY. JANUARY 31ST: DISNEYLAND UNTIL 3:00 PM. (3:15 PM: DENNY'S) Then we are back home. Keep in mind, it might be frustrating going with us because we will have itineraries.
Frances...if it's not a bother... you should definitely give me a copy of your Foot Ox cover! It's way awesome! Anywho, hope you guys are doing swell and can't wait for the new record!
Hell yeah see you guys Tuesday! And it's alright, I totally froze up when I went on anyway. NOT COOL! Here's my number AGAIN... stop losing it! haha 623 565 6364
You have better save a copy of the new EP for Victor :) So if you guys do make it to my show Saturday try and get there like at 5:30. I'm not going on until 6:30 but socializing is always fun.
Mwa, I hope the wedding thing went well... sorry I was all up in AZ and didn't get to see you. Can't wait for yr smell show. I played with the Finches with my other band. They're nice.
