Friday Night Peasant Bacchanalia

Friends and Peasants,

Just a quick reminder that Orkestar MEZE will be rocking Rusty's Surf Ranch on the Santa Monica pier yet again this Friday night at 10pm. We started a monthly residency there recently, and will be bringing the peasant funk on the first Friday of every month. Here's the facebook event.

We are so grateful to have reached and surpassed our Kickstarter goal, and Orkestar MEZE's first album will be recorded, mixed, mastered and manufactured this month, to be available for all you peasants early July! We'll be recording at the Mouse House Studio with world-class engineer Rich Mouser, so expect the recording quality to be, well, not-so-peasant. More info to come!

Lastly, don't forget to check my posting about the Benefit Event for Japan at Peace Yoga this Sunday, 6/4/11. I'm bringing a quartet to play, plus two other bands, a dance show, and some amazing prizes for super cheap raffle tickets. This event has been tirelessly organized and prepared by my wife Ami, and 100% of the proceeds go to the Japanese Red Cross to help relieve and rebuild. Details can be found here.

Benefit Event for Japan at Peace Yoga

Friends, the media rolls onward to cover the latest news, but we mustn't forget the terrible happenings that began with an earthquake in Japan on March 11th this year. I am pleased to invite you all to a wonderful event a week from today to take place at Peace Yoga in downtown Los Angeles. My wife Ami Mull has been working tirelessly for the past few months organizing, recruiting, scheduling, and rehearsing for this event, and she has lined up three bands, a short dance show, and an enticing stack of raffle prizes for those who attend. The best thing: ALL proceeds go to the Japanese Red Cross --- all entertainment and prizes (plus use of the venue) were donated, allowing admission/raffle ticket money to go to Japan %100! With a big event like this one, this is a rare claim; come support our neighbors across the Pacific and have a blast doing it.

I'll be performing a set with my quartet, featuring Juanma Trujillo, Emilio Terranova, and Mike Lockwood. You can find all other info below, including the event on Facebook. You are encouraged to download the flyer below and spread the word! The more people to party, the more we help those in need.
