The tour kicks off on April 11th in Richmond, VA. Check the dates below and see if they will be coming to a venue near you: It is time to get ready for a crazy night of music! The Venetia Fair comments, “It has been quite some time since we’ve been a hazard to the country, so I’m really looking forward to being able to get out there and ruin people’s evenings again… particularly our friends in Icarus the Owl!” they noted. “Since gas has gone down so much, we’re going to be sure to burn a twenty-dollar bill from each show in order to compensate and keep things the same!” The tour will lead up [Read More]

Fusion fission: Mitre’s Mexican-Gringo mix at Gypset’s Los Globos night. By Patrick O’Heffernan

April 7, 2015

Mitre’s performance at the Gypset Concert upstairs at Los Globos in Silverlake, Los Angeles, Friday night, was smoother and  bit more polished than his introduction to the LA music scene at a BMI-sponsored  CD Release party at the Gibson Showroom last December.  He co-headlined the evening with Rana SantaCruz; the opening acts included  Iliza Rosario and Sharin.   Mitre’s flair for fusion fission – the blending the color and form of traditional Mexican music with modern rock and pop instrumentation and sensibilities was on full display from Los Globos’s stage, thrilling the hip bi-lingual audience that makes the Gypset Magazine’s music events so interesting. Introduced by sets from Sharin and Ilza Rosario, who joined Mitre on stage during his set, Mitre also continued his custom of collaborating with other singers, alternating leads and backup vocals with his guest singers. He was also joined by Alih Jey and Ximena Muñoz, who brought different colors to the rainbow that Mitre conjured from the stage with eight songs from his Lloro and Mitre EP’s and new songs, at least [Read More]

Trevor comments about the album, “This release is a culmination of a journey to find the Sundressed sound that came to fruition with Garrett Tretta (drums), Forest Waldorf (Guitar) and Evan Kees (Bass). Lyrically it deals with continuing the struggle of living a sober life despite a rough past of addiction, while finding hope and passion for life. Music has been vital to my sobriety and hope anyone who struggles with any kind of life altering malady can find hope in our songs.” It is great to see Trevor use his gift of music to help him in his sobriety as [Read More]

Nothing More bring awareness to mental illness with their compelling new video, Jenny

April 7, 2015

Sadly, mental illness has traditionally held such a deep stigma and it is time we dissolve it and tear down the walls around it. We need to communicate and discuss it instead of turning a cheek to it or running the other way. Nothing More have created the campaign I Know Jenny which hopes to open the dialogue up around mental illness. The initiative invites people to vocalize about their own experience and to create a discussion around the suffering and bring support. They have just released a compelling and truly personal music video for their song Jenny in hopes of raising awareness. It is amazing. Check it out here:   It is time to put a voice or a face to those who suffer and not allow people to live in shame or fear because they suffer from mental illness or depression. There was a time after my father passed away in 2011 where I was an emotional mess and truly felt like my world had collapsed as I lost my best friend; my [Read More]
