Thank You to You/Weapons of Audio on Friday

Sitting in New Orleans, parked on the side of the road on Fathers Day, listening to Anders Osborne acoustically jam inside an RV I just travelled cross country in provided a good opportunity for reflection....

SUPERGOODMUSIC was launched around three years ago and as its father - I've nurtured the baby from its infancy into toddler-hood, from successes and failures, from micro journalism to big discoveries like Foster the People's "Pumped Up Kicks."  Finding that next big thing fuels the drive, and so do the fans, so THANK YOU to all of you readers, contest participants and general music enthusiasts.  You're all part of the SUPERGOOD fam!

And also thank you to Jam In The Van - the cross country trip provided a solid reminder to why I do what I do, facilitated the discovery of new talent and continued to assist SUPERGOOD in uncovering some artists whom we think could be the next big thing.  Weapons of Audio - who play tomorrow night at a Surfrider Foundation event - were an act whose JITV performance raised SGM's eyebrows.  Check out their awesome Jam In The Van video for "Night Light" and then see them play tomorrow night at The Arbor Collective (102 Washington Boulevard, Venice, CA).   Proceeds benefit Surfrider Foundation and there will be complimentary beverages available....so get your weekend started right with free drinks and tunes from Weapons of Audio, Capital Cities, Ry Cuming and more!

Karl Denson's Tiny Universe & Friends Pay Tribute to The Rolling Stones

Last night at The House of blues on Sunset Strip, Karl Denson’s Tiny Universe kicked off their Sticky Fingers tour that celebrates not just the record, but 50 years of the Stones in general. Joining KDTU is Slightly Stoopid’s own Kyle McDonald and Miles Doughty as well as Anders Osborne. This 17 date tour swings down to San Diego, then back up the California coast, hops through the Midwest, and makes one stop on the East Coast.

With The Rolling Stones 50^th anniversary coming up, the choice to perform the classic Sticky album from beginning to end is a wise one. To add to the excitement, on Halloween KDTU and crew will be joined by Rose Hill Drive at The Fillmore Auditorium in Denver, CO. Rose Hill have chosen to perform a different classic rock album and attendees will get to hear The Who’s Who’s Next played from beginning to end on top of the Sticky Fingers performance. We're officially jealous of people who will be there.

If you still haven’t scored tickets to this tour you can go here and locate which venue is closest to you. Limited to this tour - Denson has released three new shirts and two limited edition posters.
