Lion of Ido

Our big NYC show has moved from July 9th at Sullivan Hall to the Knitting Factory July 10th.  We’ll be playing the main stage so it should be awesome.  The show is all ages and 8 bucks to get in.  I would love to see you guys there.  Its awesome to be back at the main stage at the Knitting Factory.  Make sure you check out our naked promo on our myspace about me section.  Yes we are naked:)

Hello…

Sooooo… I’ve been really busy theses past few weeks. The band and I have done a bunch of shows out of state. We met some really great people and played with some really cool bands. We made some great friends up in Billerica, MA by the names of Shelby, Marisa and Laura. They started a Street Team myspace for us. I put them up on our top 8. Thats freakin cool! Add them and join the party!

Also Mike Del Rio (our new guitar player) and I will be out of town on some shady music business affairs…. but when we get back… we’ll be playing the July 9th show in NYC. The guys in the band Stealing Jane will be helping us playing some percussion, horns, sax, etc… They are an amazing band we met up with in Bennington, Vermont… funny thing is they are from long island too and we’ve hung out since. We are playing some new songs and some songs we haven’t played in a lllllllonnnnnnngggggggg timeeeeeeeeeee. So come to the show… I promise its not going to be some lame ass local bar band doing a gig… its a real deal show… and it will kick your butt!

Otherwise, I have been in the studio producing some tracks for Amanda Kaletsky… we just finished up a song called “Little Things” I posted it on my production page. In a few weeks I’ll be working with Mike Del Rio on some of his solo stuff… its freakin amazing… Look out for that coming soon too.

LAST BUT NOT LEASTTTTTTTTTT…. A new song “Top of The World” will be available on i-tunes in JULY!!!!! We’ve been playing it at the shows… We’ll be playing it at these next batch of dates we have. I’ll post a sneak peak of it on our myspace on July 4th… 5 days before our show in NYC…. ps we have some new tour dates up on our myspace.

Love
Ido
Ps… 4,000 plays in two weeks from the No Air video… thats an awesome start!
Check out the ad we made for the show on july 9th with some of that extra footage

Check out the ad for our show July 9th. 

Trying to make this show a really special event.  I think it will be.

We’ll be playing some new/old songs with a few special things in the mix.

We’ll have some friends playing with us too.  BE THERE!  … its an important night for us.

We are getting some blog love so I thought I’d share. The whole idea of doing a cover like “No Air” was to reach out to new people with a song that they already know. We tried to make it our own… and I think we did. I love the way it came out. All you haters can kiss my ass:) … Check out what some of the blogs have been saying:

We had an awesome mini tour this weekend.  Friday’s show in VT was awesome.  We had some great fans/friends come out, and we met some people on the street who came to the show.  After the show Mike from Knapps had us stay over.  We had a few beers and hung out.  We started jamming and wrote two songs.  We recorded them on Del Rio’s computer.  Thank you to Mike (Knapps) for housing us.  We had soooooo much fun.  Saturday was stellar big up to Jeff at TUMC… That night we had a rough night sleeping in the van…However, some good old fashion conversation and Burbon helped us through it.  Sunday we played at the Space.  We ran around Hamden flyering before the show and met some great people.  Show was fun.   All and all it was amazing to connect with the people that came out.  The band and I are getting closer and closer and because of it our chemistry on stage is growing.  We played Ali’s Song on Sunday and the Harmonies were killler! 

The response has been crazy so far for the music video for “No Air”.  In our first 2 days we had 1,200 views.  This is awesome… but its just the beginning… please pass the video along to friends, post it on your myspace, post the link on facebook and email it to people.  The more views the more it shows up on searches and the more people who see it on youtube.  Thank so much for your support.
