Shows, Shredders, and Sonograms

JK about the sonograms! But everything else is 100% TRUE!

We got some freshman meat that's joined the ranks at Fagettes, Inc - or should I say, The Nu-gettes?

Up on bass is Big Joe "Bass-Face" Packard. A natural in the ring, satan's own. He plays for approximately 329082384 bands, all excellent. His "likes" include Michelob Ultra, The Adventures of Pete 'N' Pete, and shredding. Hide your daughters - hell, hide your mothers. His moustache puts my Aunt Gertrude's to shame!

And joining us on 2nd guitar duty is Boston's own Matt "The Stink" Garlick. This barely-legal co-ed's interests include playing guitar for Allston legends Nice Guys, learning in school, dope, and "tending to his farts." Oh, to be young again!

So where can you catch these hotties and all your old Fagette favorites in action?! THIS SUNDAY at Great Scott with garage superstars and Burger Records hellions Heavy Cream and Those Darlin's! Come support touring babes!! RSVP online, asshat.

FLYER:

Saturday Night: Blurr-recap

'Nuff Said

If I See Him Again 7" Vinyl - OUT NOW!

We got our 7" EP in the mail last week.

Head on over to bandcamp to order one of your very own or come see us play sometime and pick one up. 

Each 7" comes with an additional digital download.

It has been a goal of ours to get something out on vinyl, so celebration at our house. Come on over.

An Exercise for Today

Today's Exercise:
Simultaneously play the song and video below.
Dont forget to mute the youtube audio!

Mondo! Anywho, we are back from tour and choppin forward. Our 7 inch (featuring the above tune) should arrive ANY day now. Head over to bandcamp if you wanna order one or come to a show sometime and skip that whole shipping thing. PS, Mr. Tarantino, if you would be so kind as to contact us about placing our music in your upcoming film, Django Unchained, we would greatly appreciate it.  It may be a little last minute, but I think you will realize it is an important decision you will not regret (it doesn't cost that much to recut a film, right?).

Upcoming Release + SHOW TONIGHT

It is with great pleasure that I toss our new album art your way for our upcoming 7".  Lovingly handcrafted/created by your favorite vocalist/saxophonist Melanie Bernier over the better course of two months, this piece is made of embroidered tinsil, handsewn/'painted/cut vinyl and one very special doll eyeball.

While our 7" wont be out until August, which we will definitely have a killer release show for, we will put up the digital download in the coming week for your listening/downloading pleasure.

WHATS THAT? CANT WAIT THAT LONG?

Come to Zuzu tonight, 10pm!  We will be playing all new songs on the new EP.  Get a taste!  

Plus, Tropical Punk is a rad band from Nashville... and youre gonna wanna see them... cause they're awesome.  

Oh, and The Electric Street Queens (electric strep queens of the boner age) will light your face on fire with their dastardly rhythm section

New Jams

Last night Ian (of the magical Mystic Steamship Co and contributor of all things electric piano/organ related) and I put the finishing touches on 3 new rock n' roll jams.

These suckers are going on a 7" for your listening pleasure, so look for a new release in the coming months, man.  Can't wait that long?  We'll put em on the internet earlier than that for sure.

And now, obligatory Fagette-Recording-Production-Photographs:

Fill In the Blanks

Hello brothers and sisters,

Last night, we recorded some new shit into the wee hours of the morning. It's sounding d-o-p-e. I really think you're gonna like it. This haul-ass we've been doing lately is in preparation for our upcoming 7" RELEASE and subsequent SUMMER TOUR with THE CLAP from Atlanta! Summer Tour: the sweetest two-word phrase in the English dictionary. The Clap: second sweetest. Seven Inches: really a matter of personal taste.

Anyways, I've been contacting sweet bands, venues, friends, friends of friends, and weird uncles of strange acquaintances - anyone that might be able to help hook some shit up. I. Need. Help.

You don't need to be a weird uncle (please don't be a weird uncle). Just read our schedule below and email melbo.elbow@gmail.com with any hints.
