Hey friends,
The weather may be rainy here in Massachusetts but it feels like a cleansing one. More and more musicians are coming back out to play, getting vaccinated and ready to share their gifts! While we are promoting the album 'Rusted Moon', we've been thankfully climbing the charts on FABchart.net, Reverbnation.com and many more! We know that without you we wouldn't be there, and it's beyond cool that the sound is appreciated and that people are connecting to the songs. Thank you as always for listening! Keep sharing, keep streaming and please do find and like or follow us on Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube and more! (If you have an opportunity you want to share, be sure to drop us a line to HoleITWStudio@gmail.com . It's gig season, after all...)
So despite the NEW release of 'Rusted Moon' this past April 1st, we want everyone to know that the band is back in studio and working hard on the upcoming album 'The Wheel'; title derived from the creation 'Old Ferris wheel ' , which is just one piece of incredible artwork by Randy Purcell out of Tennesee. (Be sure to follow the link and check him out! He is a band favorite and we hope to enlist him for more artwork in future!)
This album has a whole new run of songs, new members (like Ukelele/Guitar player and songwriter Dave Herrera) and we can't wait to share the new band line-up and touring group with all of you! More on that tour coming soon.
There is also a new songwriter livestream show being brought to us by Hole in the Wall Studio and Brother & Sister House Concert Series (a derivative of 'Bow Tie Studios'). WATER BEAR singers/players (A.J., Dave and more) will take turns hosting, playing songs with, and interviewing the musical guests for a one hour show in the HITW studio or on the Green Room couch at Chapel Apple House; a local house concert venue and A.J.'s home out of Warren, MA. We hope you'll reach out to us if you're looking to play, or to know more about the series.
Lastly for now, WATER BEAR is going to be shooting, editing and releasing the NEW music video for 'Rusted Moon' at the Grand Hall of local hot spot and artist's gallery 'Workshop 13'. This place is a local favorite, and a huge supporter of the arts in the Western/Central MA community and beyond! We hope you'll check them out, support them, and keep you eyes open for opportunities to be a guest in the video!
There's a bevy of shows we're booking, and as soon as the dates as solidified we'll be sure to share them. Thanks for being here with us and for streaming, sharing and connecting. Can't wait to continue this adventure with all of you!
-A.J.
