Clair and Ann Courtney & The Late Bloomers take over RockWood Music Hall this Friday.  The show is totally FREE and starts at 10pm sharp.  It’s a surefire way to start (or if your the earlybird type, finish) your night off right.  We’ll see you there!

Tonight, Sept 5th at Union Hall.  Brooklyn, NY.

Clair

10pm (a farewell show to their guitarist)

KaiserCartel

9pm (a welcome home show from weeks of touring)

Doug Keith

8pm (featuring members of Mascott, Clair & Up The Empire)

All in all, a kick ass night.
Doors at 7:30.  $10.

Big news coming next week!  Til then.

Just a quick update for today…

Doug Keith is playing this THURSDAY, AUG 21 at Rockwood Music Hall in NYC.  He’s on at 11pm sharp… and to make it all the more better…  he’ll be playing with a full band!  The band will consist of Ben Lord (Up The Empire), Kendall Meade (Mascott), Lindsay Sullivan (Clair) and Margaret White (Portatastic).  Pretty Sweet!

This should be enough to hold you over until our next big bash when we take over Union Hall on Sept 5th with Cougar past & present…  Doug Keith, KaiserCartel & Clair all together.  Kickin’ Ass, Takin’ Names (on the mailing lists) and drinkin’ up.  Mark your calendars, people! 

It’s a beautiful day in NYC today and only partially because of the nice cool weather we’ve got.  The new 4 song Up The Empire EP ”Loose Ends”  is back from getting mastered over at Spleenless, and goddamn it sounds GOOD!; Doug Keith’s art work for his new full length is getting finalized & he also begins rehearsal tonight for the Rhys Chatham’s 200 guitar work “A Crimson Grail” which will be performed for FREE outside at Lincoln Center this Friday, and lastly, Clair is whispering in our ears about a new EP and a follow up album coming quickly down the pipes.  All in all, a pretty good start to a day.  We’ve got a lot more than this up our sleeves though.  Stay tuned.

For all y’all that were turned away at the door last friday night at the Clair Record Release show, what can we really say other than “Awesome!” We couldn’t be more excited by that fact. I mean, it’s too bad that more people couldn’t get in to watch the band blast through a full set and a two song encore where they were joined by a full extra eight people on stage… but, i think that’ll just teach ya to get there early for the next one! :)

Clair’s album Long Road Home is out tomorrow! Buy your copy now!
