Carney Day!

Today is the day folks! Mr. Green Vol. I is officially out in stores, on ITunes, etc. Carney’s first full length CD has been on the precipice of release for sometime now it seems, but I’m pretty sure it’s actually happening this time. I would highly recommend everyone go out and get yourself a copy. Once again, for a taste, enjoy the video for the band’s first single, “Love Me, Chase Me” :

The release falls in the midst of a little tour…to get your taste of Carney live (trust me, you’ll love it), see if they’re coming to a town near you. And if you live in LA, I really hope you can come to The El Rey this Saturday to see the boys put on their last hometown show before heading of to NYC.

Important Carney announcement- VOTE VOTE VOTE!

The CD is officially out in Australia! The band is there at the moment doing a string of shows before returning to the states for the big show at the El Rey on May 15. In the meantime, their amazing video for their first single “Love Me, Chase Me” is in contention to be played on MTVU. Go here and vote for Carney to be this week’s Freshman Video. If they win, they’ll get airplay on MTVU!

After you VOTE FOR CARNEY (multiple times) check out the other videos!  They all seem like great new bands to keep an eye on. Codeine Velvet Club is on my SXSW ’10 list and I just saw them last week with Nico Vega and Metric. Their song “Hollywood” was one of my favorites! The video for Silver Starling’s “Closer” is also fun…that is totally the kind of fort I used to build!

But let’s get that Carney video some airplay! Vote today! Have your say! It would make my day! Hahaha!! Clearly, I didn’t get enough sleep last night…okay! 🙂
