Shoulder Tap Presents…

Shoulder Tap — Sat, 13 Nov 2010 21:57:22 +0000

Here in New York, we’ve been putting together semi-regular showcases of artists from our crew and associated acts, performing at New York’s Sidewalk Cafe. They’re free shows where we play new songs, or try different arrangements of old songs, where we collaborate on stage with each other, playing mostly acoustic instruments. The shows have been a lot of fun — thanks to everyone that’s been coming out to see us and support us! I’ve been pretty bad about updating this blog with info about every show, but that’s about to change. Last month, we had six acts, and here is the poster by the soft-handed Dima Drjuchin (of Corrupt Autopilot fame):

Shoulder Tap Presents (Oct 27 2010)

We’ll be booking more of these, as well as other no-so-free shows with electric guitars.

The fine gents in New Beard have almost completed tracking for their upcoming debut record, and Vending Machine’s “Let The People Sing” is complete, to be released later in November.

Finally, we wanna brag a little about our one appearance at CMJ 2010 at Greg Barris’s Heart of Darkness. The sold out show was a phenomenal event, with Reggie Watts, Dave Hill, Kristen Schaal, and Kurt Braunohler performing, with The Forgiveness Choir backing everybody up (featuring New Beard, Yazan, Dima, Jonas from Mother of Three, and Aerial East). Here’s the poster for that:

First off, thanks to everyone who came out to our acoustic show last week at Sidewalk. What a night! We’ll be putting up some videos of our sets, and we’ll be doing it again soon. Thanks to The Telephones and New Beard for joining us, too!

Mother of Three is playing a last minute FREE SHOW with our pals Black Taxi at Rockwood Music Hall’s new Stage 2. It’s this coming Thursday at around 830PM. It is seriously rare that you’ll get to see such awesome performers for free — come out and make some noise with us. Click the poster below for more info:

Mother of Three, Thurs 24 June 2010, Free show with Black Taxi

Later this week, Mother of Three is playing the most exciting Heart of Darkness yet! Greg Barris is bringing Janeane Garofalo, Dave Hill, Craig Baldo, and some super special guests to this upcoming show — not to be missed. For more info, click the poster:

Finally, here’s a clip of Mother of Three playing the Van Morrison classic, “Gloria”. Enjoy!

Mother of Three and Heart of Darkness at CMJ: PureVolume Showcase

Shoulder Tap — Thu, 08 Oct 2009 19:40:29 +0000

Mother of Three at CMJ PureVolume showcase, Friday 23 Oct

There is probably no better way for Mother of Three to end the year than with CMJ. Both shows we’re playing are going to be off the hook parties with open bar, and some of the best acts we’ve played with. PureVolume and L’asso Pizza are sponsoring five nights of mayhem at Collective Hardware, with open bar and artists hawking their wares, and Mother of Three is playing two of those nights: our live set one night, and our alter egos as house band for the Heart of Darkness comedy show the other night. (The brilliant poster above was made by none other than Mother of Three posterer and bassist, Dima Drjuchin.)

On Friday 23 Oct, we’ll be playing with fellow New York bands Lavalier and The Bowery Riots. It’s going to be a throwdown, and your last chance to see Mother of Three for the rest of 2009. Best of all, it’s free: you just have to sign up at http://PureVolume.com/house. I don’t know how many spots they have for people without CMJ passes, so I’d recommend signing up soon. Mother of Three is going to bring it, and Lavalier and The Bowery Riots are sure to put on great shows too.

On Saturday 24 Oct, Mother of Three is going to be backing Heart of Darkness, featuring comedy/performance luminaries Reggie Watts*, David Cope, and Dave Hill* (as well as Heart of Darkness founders Greg Barris and Mike O’ Rourke) [*NOTE: Reggie Watts and Dave Hill both canceled -- boo. Victor Varnado will be performing instead, as well as a mystery guest]. After the show, at which point your mind is sure to be blown, and you’ll have certainly thought that’s all the expansion of the mind you’ll be able to endure for the night, you will have to prepare yourself to stretch that mind-hole just a little wider and catch a screening of the brilliant Everything is Terrible movie. People have been posting YoutTube clips put up by the EIT crew all over the place, and now you can see their best work all at once.

If you miss these shows, we’ll be sad, but you will likely be sadder. Mother of Three will be returning to the public in Feb 2010, so don’t cry too hard, or at least not too long. So, sign up now!
