New recordings online and an update

Brothers GERD

Thanks to the fine folks at WMSE, we were able to take down all the old recordings we had online and replace them with the live tracks from our radio show on 7/21.  Are they perfect?  Nah.  Do they give a much better representation of how we sound?  Yes!  Dig it – they are on this and all our other sites.

Also, there has been talk of an EP/single/album coming out.  Here’s the deal… we got Pro Tools tracks of our WMSE show and we’re tearing those down to make an EP.  Thankfully, the drums are virtually perfect (Nick rocks) as that’s the one part we definitely can’t record on our own.  So we’re working on overdubs for guitar/bass/vocals and doing mixing/mastering.  We’ll get everything sounding perfect and throw together some neat artwork and that will be our EP.  Should be done in a couple weeks or less.  If all continues going well, we will head to a studio in the fall/winter and put out an album.  Need time to hopefully gain some popularity and write more songs before we take on that endevor.  Anyway, look for the EP soon, it should sound great.

Movin’ on up – to the east side

Brothers GERD

Like 99.5% certain we are playing the Up & Under on Thursday August 27th.  Look for more details soon.  Kind of a make-up date for another night that fell through so everything is not so lucid at the moment.  Yeah, this really isn’t really a useful post…

Thank you WMSE!

Brothers GERD

Mega thanks to Chris, Billy, Dave, Ryan, Erin and basically everyone at WMSE for hosting us, making our band sound really awesome and for being all and all super people.  We all had a really gerd time and it was a really interesting experience.  Hope anyone out there who caught the show enjoyed it.

Don’t forget to come see us next Friday!

Brothers GERD

For our third show, we expect to keep improving our performances and make this far and away the best we’ve played yet. Very excited to play at Frank’s, which is a super cool bar. The other bands should be very good as well.
