Concerts First
Feb 4th
If your a musician or in band and you are located in the Midwest area, than Concerts First is a cool place to submit your info. They have done many battle of the bands shows in the past (with 20+ bands) and they are a great way to get some exposure as a musician. Even if your band is not located around the Midwest, than you should still submit your info, since this is a growing company and is only in place to get musicians more exposure!

Jan 30th

I just caught up with Roi, who is the one of the guitar players in the band “The Material.” They are a very talented five-piece band that hails from the west! If you haven’t heard of them yet, definitely check them out. Below is the interview….Enjoy!
So, what’s the history of The Material? How long have you guys officially been together, how’d you all meet?
Jon and Colleen met in high school after being introduced by their mutual friend Mike (singer of Halifax). Colleen migrated to San Diego to pursue a Music degree at SDSU and Jon followed a little later. Noah was a friend of Colleen’s that she had met at work. The three of them began practicing with Kevin Faulk (Every Time I Die) on bass. Kevin eventually left and they found Brian and I through the wonderful world of craigslist. The Material has been together for 2 years total the current line up since Feb 2007.
What’s your writing process? Is it always this way?
We are still finding our niche as a songwriting team. Lately it has been working well with Me or Jon bringing in complete song ideas and showing them to everyone else. Then, we all add our parts and ideas. Still, this is not an exact science…
Do you use any FX at your live shows? If so what kind?
We use a lot of effects for our guitars. Delay, reverb, phase, univibe, chorus, wah, ring modulator…we are no Mars Volta but, we use what is necessary to be sonically pleasing.
What would your dream show be, if you could play with any band at any venue?
Jimmy Eat World, Foo Fighters, & the Material. This show could be at my house and it would still be amazing! More >

Razorblades and Romance
Jan 14th
Just another Monday morning, searching for some amazing music. I came across a band that has a lot of potential, their name? Razorblades and Romance. You can listen to them here. I especially like the song “Sleep Now My Love.” The intro to the song sounds like a epic battle between the acoustic and electric guitars. I’m going to try to get an interview with these guys soon!
