News Goodness
gracious it has been a while! Happy
to report however that some wonderful things have happened and it has
definitely been a busy year so far…
In short we have officially become a new group with a new name: The
Romanovs. We are extremely proud
of our name, we think it’s swell, snappy and suits us just fine. We are currently finishing up a
re-mixed version of our album “…and the moon was hungry…” with two new
tracks. We can’t wait to hear
your thoughts, please drop by the forum and let us know. This album has been licensed to a
label in Japan, where we will hopefully be traveling to promote in the early
fall. In other Romanov
news, Morgan has had the privilege of writing and recording with the French
group M83. Their album will be
released sometime in the near future and she will happily be playing keys and
singing with them as they make their way through Europe and the States. Please check in soon for more news… We promise we’ll be better. 3/28/06 Hello lusty readers... I have been honored by
another appreciation site by a very lovely young man named Luc (the oh so
mysterious Luc) who resides in France... I have never met Luc, but this
is the second site on the net where a community of people can come together
to contribute their thoughts and support to the music I try to bring to you
and yours. As you probably all know the lovely Miss Nedda Shishegar
started the first. (click here to visit) Luc's site can be found at kopydlow.net/morgan. The fact that
people seem to love what we're doing enough to dedicate time and support like
this is just an incredible thing If you'd like to connect with others who
love the music, I highly suggest visiting these sites. Merci Luc! T'es merveilleux! (You too Miss Nedda!) Also, as my web people
seem to be a little pre-occupied, I have decided to encourage people to email
me their merchandise requests as i've had so many questions about the shop
recently.... My merch is as follows: -buttons (crow logo) -t-shirts (with crow logo same as
on cd) -doll heads on ribbons for your
rear view mirror -cigar boxes with custom collage
by yours truly -stickers -custom stationary Just email me and I'll be happy to send you what your little hearts
desire. Finally, i hope to see those of you in town at our fiasco tomorrow at
the Mint! Bisoux... ~m 3/06/06 Hello all, it has been a while but finally some newsworthy fare...
We have been added to yet another compilation disk being released through a
company in Canada. I was just notified a couple of days ago and I will
let you know the details as they arrive at my doorstep... Perhaps even more important than the CD however, is the fact that we were
the number one most requested band on Electric Eye Radio last week! This
station reaches over 3 million listeners and after particiapating in a live
interview, Ed Glass the host played the entire record. We immediately
shot to number one and were quite shocked I must say. Thank you for
listening those of you that did, and I'm sure there will be more to report
soon with these lovely turn of events... Also, don't forget that we have two shows coming up in March on the 15th
and 29th both at The Mint in Hollywood on Pico Blvd. Visit www.themintla.com for directions
and more information... ~m 1/17/06 Happy New Year! Some fun was had over the holidays... Wes and
I went to Italy and played some VERY accoustic shows at a local venue in the
town of Citta Della Pieve, and Wes and Paul's piano trio performed in an
event organized by the NEA. We have at least three or four shows coming up over the next two months,
so please check the calendar section often. The shop should be up in
the next week where I am selling a variety of handmade merch, but the cd is
ONLY available through www.cdbaby.com Finally, the LP was reviewed by www.smother.net and was given an editor's
pick! I also contributed to a compilation CD entitled "Undercovers:
Smash Hits Vol I" on which I performed a version (my version) of Simon
and Garfunkel's "Scarborough Fair". You can check this out as
well on www.cdbaby.com 11/1/05 The new full length LP “…and the moon was hungry…” is finally finished and
will soon be available for purchase on www.cdbaby.com and through the store
section of this site. Paul and Wes contributed to three of the new tunes in
the studio, while Randy and Dan played on the two live songs at the end of
the disc. To accompany the independent release of this album we have landed a
supporting slot on the West coast leg of the current Veruca Salt tour. These
promise to be amazing recitals with bands such as The Lovemakers, so be sure
to check the calendar section for dates and venues… Finally, if any of you are fans of the Harry Potter series I am happy to
say that I landed the job of performing the vocals for the trailer of the
upcoming film. (Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire) Unfortunately it was not
used for the domestic trailer, (hence you will not hear me in theaters in the
states) however the trailer is for all international usage and can be easily
found on-line. |
