Back in the Swing

I haven’t been booking any shows recently because we have been busy with the record, but I am happy to announce we are starting to do just that.  I got an email from a very cool chick at very cool venue, Viento Y Agua.  ( I don’t know what it means either.. something about water??) They want us to come out and do a show.  I am stoked because I really dig it there. They have tons of cool art, it’s in a hip little spot in Long Beach and I personally think it’s one of the best coffeeshop venues around.  It has a nice stage, cool ambiance and hipsters hanging out doing what ever it is that hipsters do.  If you find out let me know.

I am also happy to be playing at an art opening at the end of the month.  My friend is a stellar artist and a few of her fellow artisans are converting a photography studio into a space where they can show their work.  She asked me to come up a sing a few tunes, which I would be totally down to do.  There will be a few other acts on board. It sounds mellow and fun.  I’m gonna fly solo on that one, which is cool because then I can play what I feel like.  I’m still getting use to the idea of doing a set list with a band.  I usually just go up there and sing what I feel like at the moment, as oppose to have it typed up on a sheet on paper that is laying at my feet.

Lastly, I can’t wait for the benefit!  ROCK FOR LIVESTOCK !!! It will be here before you know it.   So far though I have three confirmed acts to play at it, and I think we might be able to convince a few “special guests” to play as well.  I guess we will see how it goes.  Mostly , I am just pleased to tell people about the work that Heiffer does and hopfully raise some money to help a great cause.  Plus, we might have a Bar B Que!
