Sounds Like
a direct quote: "A box of spaghetti: lots of noodle but it never gets out of hand."
This video from Brian Lugo sounds like a new unrecorded song called "Novel Figure" and a classic, from Harvest of Hope Fest, March 8th 2009.
We sounded like this last summer when Dave Garwacke recorded this very HD video of us playing in a black hole.
Here are a number of things you may want to know about us:
We wrote our first song on april 13th, 2007, in a Bloomington, IN southeast side basement.
We played 16 shows in 2007, and so far way more in 2008.
We decided on our name after reading it on a sidewalk while walking home from a delicious Chinese Restaurant.
We are friends who knew each other from playing with each others past musical projects like Matty Pop Chart, One Reason, K-10 Prospect, Abe Froman, Mt. Gigantic, Bodyhammer, and Los Gatos Negros. We used to live in Mississippi, Kentucky, and Michigan before something drew us all to Bloomington.
We first released a 6 song demo that we recorded with our friend Mike Dixon at Russian Recording here in Bloomington on 10/19/07 from 3pm to 3am.
We self-released our 13 song album "Into Lake Griffy" on cd May 10th, 2008. It was recorded and mixed with our friend Mike Bridavsky at Russian Recording in February and April of 2008. The release is packaged in a full color 100% recycled digipak with 100% recycled mini poster insert. We put a lot of time and energy and life into it.
No Idea Records has released the vinyl version of Into Lake Griffy. It's printed on the same recycled boards and papers as the cd. The vinyl is even "recycled" from various leftover colors of vinyl at the plant. The cd still comes from us!
We toured the east coast last May and June and the west coast with our buddy Paul Baribeau in September and October.
We like to listen to Harry Potter books, National Public Radio Podcasts, and audio from Jurrasic Park in our vehicle.
We thank residents of Guilty Pleasures house past and future for putting up with the incessant noise of practice.
Order INTO LAKE GRIFFY on cd from us! OR send $10 to Po box 3341, Bloomington, IN, 47402.
Hey there!
just thought we'd let you know that we'll be performing at Rachael's Cafe (300 E 3rd St.) on Sunday, the 8th.
The show starts at 8 and there's a $5 cover charge.
there'll be some other great bands there, so you should check it out!
if you listen to Good Luck in the morning before school (or work or whatever else you don't really feel like going to at 8 AM) then you will be in a good mood for the rest of the day. i have tested this hypothesis for the past couple weeks or so. no failures yet. huzzahhhh
il be coming over for the last two weeks in november,going to be in chicago but it isnt a problem to get to bloomington or anything.got the demo off ginger 2 years ago and it would be great to see you play.thanks for keeping me informed,hope to see you soon stephen
hehe! cool pics, thanks for uploading these - though it does blow our cover! i was thinking of doing a gorillaz thing and making cartoon characters for everybody.
What's up doods and dudette!? We just finished our demo and we'd be greatly honored if you gave it a listen. Hopefully you'll like it was much as we liked lake griffy...Which was a whole friggin lot!
