Shameless Promotions: Achachay! and Language Room (not together)

In a post of shameless promotions for people we love, let me tell you about my brother’s band’s new CD. It’s effing amazing.

I’ll let him tell you about it:

We’ve put our best efforts into an amazing five song EP entitled “A Preachy Catfish” and we want you to know that it is available for purchase online RIGHT NOW, on http://www.achachay.com. Please check it out, buy it, and get others to buy. Be the first to own the recording inception of future musical legends (us of course). We put a lot of love into this and we want to share it with as many people as possible for two reasons:

(1) We believe our music makes your life better.
(2) The CD is very good.

We need you guys to spread the music grassroots in every way you can. Blog about it, put it in your status and away message, twitter it, pass it around, talk about it at bars. Our goal is to sell over 1000 copies of A Preachy Catfish online, in a month. Help us. Tell us and tell the world what makes it good and what can be improved, what you wish was recorded and what pieces you love. We’re listening. We want this to be communication not just propagation. It’s a great balance of silly and serious, plus all are dance-inciting grooves. Feel free to burn it, and encourage those who get the CD free to donate via the PayPal link on our site.

A huge thanks to everyone who has supported us on the tour thus far – by coming out to shows, putting us up for a night, and just reading and commenting about it on our website. We can’t do it without you.

And then, a dear reader wrote in to tell me about her boyfriend’s band, who actually sound pretty freakin’ good. They’re playing this Thursday night at The Parish at 10, so it’s definitely worth checking out. Plus, though she’s a little biased, she swears they’re major hotties…

Reader says: “Language Room [is] local guys with a great sound, kind of a mix of Radiohead-Kings of Leon-Muse. Very alternative, sing-along-to rock. The show’s June 11th @ 10pm, and it’s gonna be a good one, with visuals to go along with their rocking sound.

Check out some of their songs off their just released album “One by One” on their myspace: myspace.com/languageroom
(“I Still Need You” being my personal fave)

Or other info on their main site: languageroom.net

Take a second to hear them out, it’ll convince you to hit up the show!

And that, my friends, is some shameless promotion for people we love.
