After a brief stint in the studio, we’re starting the year on the road and heading to Brooklyn, the home of Mario AND Luigi!

We’re playing at a really cool room called Bar Matchless..it’s an old auto repair shop in Green Point which means most of our on-stage banter will consist of “Ayyyy” and “Jeeeeez” and “Hey whoa whoa”.

We’re playing with some seriously awesome bands:
* Harrelson Sills Live
* Brendan Rivera Band
* Stuedabakerbrown
* Whiskee

The music starts at 8, WE GO ON AT TEN SHARP.

A significant portion of our best shows have taken place in New York, so you better believe we’re bringing it.

It’s finally here! If you’re seeing this post, that means our song has just aired on the Big Sauce Radio program and is now available for you to download!

Why This Song?
A few reasons:

• We had a ton of fun playing it live this year
• We feel the way we play it is very true to our own style
• It’s a fricking awesome song, honestly
• The Talking Heads are one of the few bands we all love..not like…love.
• From a content standpoint, we feel like this song is pretty relevant right now; not only to the world at large, but to the record we’re about to record

Why Did You Release a Cover?
We want to try to record a cover song every year! We released Bad Romance last year and, hopefully, we’ll be around next year to kick out another one. We do it as a ‘thank you’ to our fans. As fans ourselves, we love when our favorite bands cover our other favorite bands. Hopefully some people feel that way about us.

How Did You Record It?
Ryan Savary strikes again! Our resident audio whiz-kid once again served as producer, but we did things completely different this time. Instead of track-by-track, we recorded all of the instruments at the same time - something we’ve never done before. It was a total blast and we think Ryan really captured the fun we have playing it on this recording.

As you may recall, last year we started a new tradition of recording a cover song as a year-end giveaway to all y’alls. Well, this year we’re keeping it going, but we’re making it a little bit bigger and a little bit better.

Tonight, this song will air, for the first time anywhere on the Big Sauce Radio show! We’ll be in the studio with Chris, Dean, Thryn and the gang all night long, cracking wise and talking about the Boston entertainment scene and life in general. Once the song has debuted on the air, come right back here to SPRband.com and you’ll find it available for download FOR FREE!
