Post no bills

Last night Cain, Dave and I went around putting up posters and passing out fliers around Chicago. We hit parts of Wicker Park, Uptown and Ukraine Village. I still have to hit up Kinetic Playground and Loyola. I'm hoping to do that on Friday.

Tonight is practice, we're all very excited about it. We have a new song in the works called Winter Ghost, an ode to Isa. Hopefully we can try to revisit Iron Hear of The Republic as well.

Seahorse and The Monkey is now posted!!! Last night I went over to Jeremy's to check out the mixes that he did on the tracks. As for now we grabbed three of the songs we recorded.

Unfortunately we were a little rushed in the studio and we thought we could pull it off. As demos they work fine so I think with the three that we picked people will be able to hear what we sound like.

Tonight we're going to go around Chicago to put up posters for our show at Kinetic Playground. I've asked Dave to help us also. Hopefully we can get a lot done in a short time.

Keeping up with CANYON

Well, it's been forever since we've updated anything on here. I'm sorry for that.

We moved in to a temporary home until February, then we'll be moving to our permanent space. We've had a couple of practices since the move and things are going well.

Just this past Saturday Ursula tracked a bunch of cello on Sentence Fragment & Evil Shenanigans demos. We're waiting for the mix downs so we can get them mastered.

Move'n on up....

Today we moved to our new practice space. It's a space I've know about for a fairly long time. There are a few bands that I know in the building and a few that are no longer there.

We are in a temporary room right now and in February we will be moving to a slightly larger room.

We had a rather quiet practice today. For some reason our Vox amp didn't work so Bailey and Cain had to keep taking turns playing through an amp. In a lot of ways this worked out because we were able to hammer out parts a lot better. We just chopped everything up and worked on the songs bit by bit. We're definately on the road to being a lot tighter that we have been in the past.

It's really bitter sweet how busy we are. In a lot of ways it's great that we have a lot of shows and interviews coming up but it's not allowing us time to write and tighten up on the songs we currently have. I'm sure that we'll make good use of the new practice space and hammer everything out in enough time for our shows in February.

Sponsored!

Today we found out that WMSE will be sponsoring our show Feb 21st in Milwaukee at BBC Upper Level. We're really excited to have their support and backing. They're going to give all the bands an interview and push the show for two weeks!!

We're still not 100% of the order of the show, but the line up is:

Leah Jee & The Boys
This Specific Dream
Kamadevah!

It looks like a great line up and I think everyone's sounds will flow really well throughout the night.

Shattered....

I kept having a recurring dream last night. I had three dreams, from what I remember. In each dream I found my guitar shattered. Each time I had the dream it was more shattered than the previous dream.

Anyway, we're currently planning our Kinetic Playground and BBC shows. We're working on getting sponsors and fliers made for each of the shows.

Here's the poster that was made by Phil of Wonderful Flying Machines. I think it turned out great!

Practice makes a good time!

Last night we had a nice little practice session. It was just Ursula, Brandon and myself. It went well and we went over some of the set we'll be playing tomorrow night at Union Rock Yards.

We were actually able to take little breaks and have a little bit of conversation between the three of us.

All and all the practice was good and we got a little bit of structuring and writing in with the cello.
