"It's Only Just Begun"


Well, where to begin...
It’s 420!! To all who celebrate YAY! To all that don’t then more for MEEE!! Haha

Anyway .. We just played a great show at Martini Ranch on Friday night!! Robert the booking agent there said that he wanted to cry; “it was like watching a National Act role through”!! I could say what else he said but we don’t want to make anybody jealous. Although Kat Williams does say that da mo’ haters you got the better you must be doing so you can hate on me all you want!! LOL

Good thangs are a coming!

This weekend we get to go play a show in Long Beach on Saturday at DiPiazzas! I love getting back to my home town and rocking out  =)  We have so much going on right now that it’s crazy!!! We just finished a photo shoot a couple weeks ago. We are finishing up new album artwork this week as well. We have to start planning our summer tour and WE ARE GOING BACK INTO THE STUDIO COME FALL per management. Thank you Mr. Brown.

On Sunday me and Richie were blessed to get a preview/tour of the NEW PHASE 54 on I-10 and Ray. We will be playing there. We will be opening for National Acts there. The place looks AMAZING. There will be nothing as badass as The NEW PHASE in Arizona. Its GRAND OPENING is Friday May 7th!! Mark those calendars!! We’ll be there partying and so should YOU!

What else what else .. Well personally I have moved in with Mr. Richie Russo. He has graciously lent me his couch for the nights. What do they say? A musician without a girlfriend is homeless! Thank God for band mates! Haha .. That’s all for now.

Photo Shoot for Album Cover

Hello everyone,
Richie here (A.K.A Floridian Franchise, Richie FingAZ, etc).  I’m the one who lays down those fine sounds on the keys; just wanted to share some things with you fellow music lovers to keep you up with the haps.

On Sat April 3rd we had a photo shoot for the new cover of our album “Live Before the Train Departs” that will be in stores very soon.  We shot at Durants, a real cool, classy restaurant in Downtown Phoenix.  It has a very Mafioso feel with red walls and sweet leather seating.  Anyway, we had a blast with very little mishaps.   I think Jeremy might have gotten picture of the day with a shot taken in front of a light fixture which gave him a sweet halo look.  Even the best angels would be jealous of this pic.  Hats off Saint Jeremiah!  Maybe if you sweet talk him some, he’ll share that pic.

We’re very excited to be playing a killer show at Martini Ranch in Scottsdale on Friday April 16th at 10pm.  The sound and vibe there is always awesome.  Come out and support us, we’d love to see your bright happy faces!  And don’t forget to say hi, we love that too. 

The following weekend we’ll be in Cali, playing at Di Piazzas in LA; another sweet spot.

So that bout does it, wraps ‘er all up.  Bookmark/subscribe to our blog and we’ll keep you, our loving fans, updated with all the haps of IOE. 

See ya soon,
Richie
