   About Waxing Phil
Waxing Phil's second album "Unrefined" is now available for download!!! Go to www.waxingphil.com and click on the store section to download all ten new tracks. The band continues to pay homage to its traditional musical roots, while developing its own unique place in music.

Relying on a deep catalog of original material from 1999's Life In the Day of..., their 2004 debut album Sensational Bad News, the new 2006 album Unrefined, plus dozens of new and previously unrecorded songs, the band has stretched and plied each song into an amazing journey of experimentation and improvisation. Since solidifying the current lineup in June 2005, the band has recorded hundreds of hours of rehearsals and live performances and has turned into one of the Midwest's preeminent jambands, all the while charming the listener with wry and engaging tales of love, loss, longing, politics, sex and hippie nihilism - with a beat.

Formed in 1996 as a solo singer/songwriter, Waxing Phil's musical (r)evolution continues to add elements of chemistry and sound to draw you into that one place only music can take you. Waxing Phil invites you breathe deep, close your eyes and take the leap with them into ...

Hello!!

If you're around on Thursday, December 10th, we are playing a show at Mario's Keller Bar. I don't know if you've been there, but it's a very cool place. It's a comfortable space, the room sounds great and they have a stellar beer selection.

Also, we will be playing ALL NIGHT! We'll play some funky, bluesy, and soulful music. We'll project live video onto a 9 ft screen. We'll play some older material that hasn't been heard in awhile, as well as some brand new songs that've never been heard. All bets are off!! We'd love it if you'd come down and listen/party with us!

Here are the details:




Hope to see ya there!!!

Peace,
Elliot

Hey there!!

I just wanted to stop by and wish you a happy Saturday! May the weekend bring you fun adventures, relaxation, and total contentment :)

I was going to go camping this weekend, but this is definitely NOT camping weather. So me and some friends are gonna go check out Dueling Pianos. Those guys are amazing - they can play just about any song that's been on the radio between 1950 and 2005.

Anyways, I wanted to let you know about a show we have @ Station 4 on Friday, October 16th. We are debuting a series of one time only performance art pieces. This one is called "AN OBJECT TO CRAVE". Live music and visuals based on a short story about life, love, loss, fantasy, obsession and death.

Another group of mine, The Magnetrons, which plays an exciting and innovative Livetronica set (i.e. STS9, Disco Biscuits, The Histronic) will also be playing. The night will be full of creative, interesting, high-energy music, good drinks and good times.

Here's the info:

Blood Root Mother - "An Object to Crave"
w/ The Magnetrons & Thought Thieves
Friday, October 16th
Station 4
201 E 4th St
St Paul, MN 55101
9pm / $5 / 18+


We'd love to see ya there!

Peace,
Elliot

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!

What's up?

Blood Root Mother will be playing at Trocaderos in Minneapolis on Friday, June 26th. I cannot stress enough how awesome this show will be. We're playing with three of the sweetest local rock bands: Claret, Niobium and Casanatra. If you haven't heard these guys, check them out immediately! Please come to this show!!

I recommend coming during happy hour for two for one drinks along with free buffet, which is delicious. We'll be hanging out at Trocs all night, so come by and chill/party with us :)

Again, here's the event info:

Trocaderos
107 3rd Ave N
Minneapolis, MN
18+ // $6 // 8pm


Please come out and support some great local music! Music starts at 9:30pm and we should go on around midnight. Invite your friends, pile into a car (or a party bus), and together we will make this one of the highlights of the summer :)

Peace,
Elliot
