Old Friends

Over the years we've had the pleasure of playing with many a fine band. We've also played with some bands that aren't worth remembering, and some bands that are worth remembering for all the wrong reasons-- but this post isn't about those bands (though we should come up with one for later-- there was a band I remember calling "Death Wedding" in particular that I would love to track down as a where are they now kind of thing)-- this post is about a couple artists we played with over the years that have some music out that you should check out if you have the time or money.

Until June has released a follow up EP to their debut album from 2007. We've played with these guys more than any other band in the LA scene, and they are great guys, and deserve all the success they can get, so show them some love!

A few years ago we were booking one Wednesday night a month at the Derby in Los Feliz-- there was no cover, no typical industry BS, and we got to book bands WE wanted to hear play and not worry about getting people through the door and all that. Even though I don't know this for sure-- Until June showcased one of those nights, so I'd like to think that was the ngiht they got signed. Anyway, through those nights, we were introduced to Diane Birch, who I remember seeing and thinking "if this girl doesn't make it in music, there's no hope for any of us."

Well today, she is the free download single of the week on itunes, and her album is available for pre-order. From the clips on her myspace, this is going to be a damn fine album, so congrats to her, and check it out for yo' self, yo.

Congrats to both these guys. Now it's time to look up the real name of that Death Wedding band.
