Scribble Jam is upon us. That’s where we’ll be all weekend. We play on Friday, but other than that we’ll just be bumming around. If you are planning on being in Cincinnati, stop by our booth and we’ll make you a hat out of a newspaper. Seeing as the trip to Ohio is a relatively long drive, we’re leaving Wednesday … Read More

Cancelation
Our apologies to anyone that came out to Loring Park last night. The show was cancelled due to rain. That was one crazy storm though, and if you actually went to the park during that shit you are one crazy dude/lady. Props.

Robot Love One Year Anniversary
Steamy steel-on-steel action! Tomorrow (Thursday) evening we will join our friends at Robot Love in celebrating their one year anniversary.

Joining us in our swaying, drunken toast of “for he’s a jolly-good fellow” will be Mel Gibson and the … Read More

We’ll be headlining on Saturday night, and have some … Read More

They’ll be at King’s Club in Madtown on Sunday the 19th, and at the Hot House in “a little town outside of Gary, Indiana” on Tuesday the 21st. You may … Read More
June Releases
June is apparently a big month to put out records. Apart from our general excitement about the new CDs from Lil’ Flip and Coldplay, Doomtree will be involved–in one way or another–with some of this month’s baddest local release parties. Check it: First off, Dessa will be performing this Thursday and Friday (the 16th & 17th) at the Bryant Lake … Read More
