WYCE Best of the Decade

WYCE, 88.1 FM, is having a Best of the Decade tally. Along with best Americana, Jazz, Blues, Rock, and Global selections, there is a Best Local Act of the Decade write-in. I'm not here to bend your arm on this, but if you were so inclined to voice your opinion, I'm sure you could think of a deserving local act.

I'm just sayin', is all.

Soundcheck

I missed this last week, but here's a blurb about the show, along with a download of "Going to See Michelle" from John Sinkevics. John also had the Intersection show listed in his Weekend List.

Coyote Trailer 2

Gotta release this when the full moon is out...



Joel's last film, Gordon, can be seen here.

Also, there will be a new song featured in the movie that should debut before too long in a live set called, "Don't You Be Leaving Too Soon."

My Machine on WYCE tonight

While driving back from the store tonight I heard "My Machine" on WYCE, 88.1 FM. Be sure to support WYCE by tuning in to them and calling up to make requests. Of course it would be great to call and request the band, but there are plenty of other great local acts to call in and request to hear as well. The more local music that is played, the better it is for everyone, especially the folks who don't even know that it exists.

Coyote trailer debuts Tuesday night

Coyote, the new film by Joel Potrykus, will debut it's new trailer tomorrow night some place on the interweb. In the meantime, here is the teaser trailer.

Thank you for visiting...

What comes next?

Met up with Bol tonight for dinner, and he gave me some insight into what is coming up next for the band. Sounds like tonight's practice will help set the course a bit more. I wouldn't bet on seeing The Letter 11 for a while, as it looks like the band could be focusing more on nailing all the new songs live. I dunno how much work that will take, as it all sounded pretty amazing Friday night.

I can tell you that there are three NEW songs, not on Primrose, that the band is already at work on! The first one is a mythical beast of a track called "All for Maria," and yes, this is "Maria," the "Crosstown" prequel that is oft written about and expected to be on the Letter 11. The next track is "Please Forgive Me," and this is a straight up new track, with no expected release. Finally, the last new track is "Don't You Be Leaving Too Soon," which is going to be featured in the Coyote soundtrack, from the upcoming film by Joel Potrykus that features Chance.

If you feel bummed that you missed the show Friday, or like a junkie, need more live Chance Jones in your life, you have two opportunities in the first week of December. You can catch a live solo show of Chance at A Winter's Tune on December 6 at the Wealthy Theater. You may remember last year's track, which was pretty fun. After that you can catch the full band at Mulligan's on December 12. Bol said that there are some January dates in the works, but we'll know more about those soon.

Exciting time to be a fan. Remember, Primrose will make an excellent gift for family and loved ones! Be sure to check out Friction, Vertigo, or iTunes to get your copies for yourself and your holiday list.
