Mercy Choir - 2 Machines In The Garden

Paul Belbusti's need to create art and experiment knows no bounds. Easily the most prolific artist in the CT area, Paul's main musical act Mercy Choir starts out the new year strong with the first of what I am sure will be many releases this year.

SPACETRON: A New Concertgoing Experience @ SPACELAND BALLROOM 8/24

José Oyola is a creature of the stage, there is no doubt about it! His love of live performance and theatrics has caused him to concoct SPACETRON, an event that is more than just another concert. It will basically be a giant carnival party with crazy lights, smoke machine, face painting, kaleidoscope making, photobooth, LED hula hoop performance, and just an all around amazing time.

Will Hayes of Wolves At Bay sits down and talks.

Wolves At Bay have been on a non-stop ride of touring and writing for the past year.  They are one of the few bands in the area that are out there “doing it”, and it shows. They are full of energy and are one of the most tight knit bands in Connecticut today.  They signed to Animal Style Records out of Los Angeles, CA  ( a label that also includes Connecticut hardcore heroes With Honor) and are now on the verge of releasing their second full length record titled “I Was the Devil Once”.  I recently sat down with Will Hayes who is the Singer/guitarist of Wolves at Bay and this is what he had to say…

THE GRIMM GENERATION @ BEST VIDEO IN HAMDEN 12/5

The Grimm Generation are taking their special blend of apocalyptic pop to Best Video in Hamden, which is an establishment greatly deserving of your time and attention.

The Grimm Generation
From the flaming wreckage of the 'Record Industry' arise The Grimm Generation. The songs document the lives of the authors, in victorious shout-along choruses to stark lyrics which paint an unpretty, but accurate portrait of life in The Land Of Steady Habits. Carmen sings and writes and Jason sings and writes and plays guitar. But what The Grimm Generation really does is confess. Publicly, loudly. With feeling.



LIVE @ Best Video
1842 Whitney Avenue, Hamden
