Music Is Art


It's very short notice, but it looks like we will be playing the MUSIC IS ART festival on SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 11th around 9:00pm. Should be a fun time. I'm pretty excited to see some of the acts I may have missed in our local music scene. See you there!

Routine Maintenence

Well, our show at Mohawk was very successful. A "Thank You" needs to be said to everyone that came out and had a good time, Coterie Of Stern, A Hotel Nourishing (you guys rocked), Nick at the bar, and the guy who poured heart and soul into the lighting (unfortunately his name escapes me at the moment.) THANK YOU. Can't wait to play Mohawk again!

If you haven't already, add us on facebook if you would like to. That is usually the first place we announce things, and we like to make an event page for every show we play. Like this one.
Which reminds me, we are
We hope to see you there.

If you haven't already seen these, we made commercials for our upcoming performance... we think they're pretty entertaining... what do you think?




Hmmm... this is a very link filled entry... in keeping with the style of this post, here are some other links that might be of interest:
The Sleepy Sparrows (Jesse's other project)
Nietzche's (The Etchings' next venue)

More to come later.

August 26th @ Mohawk

We're very excited to announce that we will be playing a show August 26th at Mohawk place, with some very talented musicians that like to call themselves A Hotel Nourishing (check them out here www.myspace.com/AHotelNourishing) and also with Coterie Of Stern (it's their first live performance ever in the history of the world.)

The doors of the Mohawk place will open at 7pm and the first band (CoS) will go on stage at approximately 8 o clock. It's gonna be 5 bucks at the door.

We will be premiering a few new songs that we are all really stoked about. It's gonna be a great night.

The Travesties of Modern Living

The Etchings forgot about blogs for a long time. Sorry. In that time, we've managed to write three new songs, and we're gearing up for some more shows coming in the fall. As it turns out, the Summer is not our season.

No, no one in the band has been preoccupied with solo projects. In fact, we as a group frown upon such things. We don't allow each other to do anything outside of the band- smooth, being a stunt man.

We can't control everything, though we try.... though we try. It has been a long summer, and the blue corn moon has been on the rise. We have tried to paint with all the colors of the wind, but so far we only have cerulean.

In layman's terms, we have new songs, the old songs sound better, and we have shows coming soon. If you've been tuning out on a regular basis, be sure to download our Sketchings EP from iTunes, and see us play live any chance you get. Or you will be full of regret.

We are sweaty. We are ready. We will see you soon.

Nick


--------------------------

Ben's turn:

Many of the things Nick is saying are true. The Blue corn moon is, in fact, out in full form. We've got three new tunes that will melt your face off, and our old/still pretty new songs are sounding better than ever. We do have a show coming up, I promise... but our handlers wont let us release the details just yet. Also, some of the things Nick said are not true. Jesse has been working on a project called "The Sleepy Sparrows" and I have been working on a project called "stuck at sea" and rocco has been playing at stillwater... but, mainly, we as a band want you to pay attention to The Etchings because it is painting with all the colors of the wind. Goodnight.

Love Ben.

The Etchings YouTube Channel.....

The Etchings, Mo Faux, and Erin Kelly and Friends rocked out at The Hairy Lemon in Fredonia this past Thursday night, but we here know you're itching for proof.


Check out The Etchings new You Tube Channel, chock-full of low-res, mediocre-audio-videos from the bands debut full-length-electric performance.


Remember, we'll be at Nietzsche's in Allentown on the 27th. Brant will fill you in on the details.


Love,


The Etchings
