   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 ...

Blood Root Mother


Online Now!


Jul 7 2009 7:32 AM

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

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

What's up?

Just stopping by to show some love :-)

We appreciate that you're doing your own thing and glad that you're our friend!

I wanted to share an insight that I had recently. Blood Root Mother really believe in the power of music. Genuine music transcends all limitations and boundaries, and happens when musicians and listeners are communicating with one another on the deepest level possible. In a society overcome by an obsession with flashy images and stale radio hits, we seek to do something that shakes the foundation of the status quo. Since the dawn of human civilization, music has been about sharing humanity and truly connecting with others. So stay connected with us, and join us on our journey.

Peace,
Elliot


The artistic activity does not lie in art itself as such. It penetrates into a deeper world in which all art forms flow together, and in which the harmony of soul and cosmos in the nothing has its outcome in reality.

Hey there,

Here's one from left field!

Ever wondered what to do in the event of a nuclear threat?

A while ago I came across some stuff that inspired me to make this film:

Living Under the Shadow of the Nuclear Umbrella

Both artistic (ensure you get the background music!) and educational, it primarily comprises official British government civil defence advice.

Though source materials are quite aged, the fundamentals are still relevant today.

I encourage all to visit the YouTube page to learn more (Show support! Rate! Comment!) and responsibly circulate as widely as possible, here:
http://www. youtube. com/watch?v=UaIim3Rj7L4

Help to raise awareness.

Say have you checked out my web site recently?

Take care and keep in touch.

Best,
Faber.
