THANK YOU NOTE
—————————–

We would just like to take a minute to thank each and every one of you. You guys make it possible to do what we do. Some of you have been with us from the very beginning and have seen us grow from a small stem into a full fledged Stereogrove. Others have just joined the movement, and we welcome you and hope that you enjoy the ride. We realize that the efforts of our successes rest not only on our shoulders but on yours as well. We hope that you enjoy the new album that YOU helped create. If you like it and just do one of these things — send a link to your friend, foward on this email, share the event on Facebook, post a message on Twitter, or drag a friend out to a show — those little seeds will grow and all of us will reap the benefits.

NEW VIDEO
——————–

Now something for your viewing enjoyment. Here is another video taken during the live recording of the album. The song is called “Todos Los Dias”…

Much Love,

Stereogrove

This is what we did at practice today. We used a special stencil and ink pressed the CD packaging ourselves. Well, mostly Matt & Tony did while Matt S packaged buttons because he is braindead today. Looks sick!

It’s a new month, which means it’s time for some new music! The newest installment of Keep Your Ear To the Door features two solo acoustic songs done by AJ Butler. Check them out – we think you will dig the intimacy of the recordings:

“The Grove” – A 10 part drawing series

We thought it be cool to explore the idea that if there was a stereogrove, what would it look like, who would live there, and what kinds of things would go on there. What we’ve come up with so far is a series of drawings based on this “dreamscape” realm where instruments and musical equipment grow on trees. This first series depicts the grove from various viewpoints. All artwork done by Tony Hollums. 8×10 prints are available to purchase. Check it out: http://stereogrove.com/the-grove/
