Say, we're actually allowed to announce this, finally: We're playing at the Rochester Jazz festival this summer! We're using our East Coast name, "Two Siberians." We'll be doing two sets at the Little Theater, on Friday June 21. Come out and say hi!

Added a couple of songs from our recent album "6/8" today, because I was totally surprised to find I hadn't uploaded them before. Moka Koka and Telephone have a Latin edge to them--hope you enjoy!

Thank you!! Wow! Yeah, that's some of Artyom's solo work, it's been on my hard drive for months now and I finally had time to listen to it. I really liked Liquid Time, it's very hypnotic.

If it's anything like US taxes or Russian bureaucracy, it will take a minimum of one or two lifetimes. I trust you have efficient and beautiful assistants on planet 6/8 who never age.

I think that was the highlight of the tour for the guys. I've listened to snippets from their last concert in Moscow and they were blabbing like crazy about being the best band in Oregon. They didn't win the National level award... we were all laughing about the concept of "The Best Band in America... is from Siberia." It would've pegged the Irony Meter.

The guys just wrapped up their first tour of the US West Coast. They'll be in Moscow for the blink of an eye, then off to Siberia for a short tour in the Deep Freeze.

While they were here, they won the "Musician of the Year" award from RAW: Portland, and even now they're competing at the national level. I've got all fingers, toes, and even my eyes crossed for them!

Hi! I saw your post on the 7th Can... I think the White Fort guys would be down with adding a song to a compilation album to benefit Sandy victims. Have you had other takers? I don't know how much we could contribute besides the tune--we could post it on FB and what not, but I'm pretty much incompetent at marketing.

Let me know how this is going, and how we can contribute.

Cheers,
Jeanine

thx, Jeanine - a couple members have offered to contribute a song and another suggested because we are "unknown" to the general public other activities would be more beneficial. if it is going to happen, need to look at how we get it into the public mainstream. will update you if we proceed.

I'd contribute a song if it was wanted and fit. Regardless, I'll certainly buy the album.

Author

over 30 days ago

thx, Robert - will keep you informed as well. just so everybody knows, not thinking CD. MP3 downloads only. there is a good chance the only expense would then be credit card or PayPal fee which should average around 3%. that means a $10 sale would net out to $9.70 after fee. something else to think about, should this go forward, which charity to choose as some eat up a large portion of donations for "administrative costs"

Author

I hear ya, on all counts. Well, have you talked to the Broadjam Powers that Be about the idea? They might have some ideas about promoting. Seems like it would be good for their PR as well. As for finding a charity... we should pick one right away and contact them, in order to obtain proper permission to use their name in association with this album. I got taken to the cleaners by a con artist a few years ago who set up a fake fund for a real charity (without their permission) and I know the whole drill for making this kind of thing kosher. I can help with that aspect of it. But living on the West Coast, I'm not sure which one to pick--someone back East could maybe suggest a place that seems to be working hard.

We'll be up and down the West Coast this fall--about the furthest inland we're going is Moscow, Idaho. I can't wait to take a picture of the guys in front of the "Welcome to Moscow" sign. But that's a whole Montana away from you, I'm afraid.

hey white fort,
My advice..... stop following the leaderbords. It will drive you insane! It can change any second!
Somewhere between here and december, BJ will launch some offers for the sixpack. Many people then submit songs and BOOM first place, becomes 10th place!
Then also, you are (looking at last years sixpack) in the disadvantage. Last year Jeff Haper AKA Mind Cleaner had 3 first places in the leader board out of six cans! even so, he didn't forwarded to the final top 20.
So again my Advice, don't log in untill december and then start biting your finger nails! good luck. FLoris

Well, I did that... the trouble was, my gosh, they'd have these lists of bands they represented and because they were all local, I couldn't tell what kind of music they were... it was kind of overwhelming, like we weren't even speaking the same language, you know?
