Bird of Prey video is now live

August 12th, 2010

Hi all –
Our video of Bird of Prey shot by Noisescape TV is now live on the band’s website.

This video was taken the same day we finalized shooting our Hollowland video (what a long day that was) and we are hoping to have that completed soon.

Until then, enjoy the video while we get our new drummer kelly up to speed.

thanks –
BBO

Blackbird Orchestra Announcement

July 6th, 2010

Blackbird Orchestra Announcement:

It’s with heavy hearts that we have to announce that Kevin Jungfleisch will be stepping down as the drummer for Blackbird Orchestra. Kevin has been with us since 2006 and played an important role as we blended our musical tastes into what is our present day sound. Kevin will be pursuing other ventures and we hope to see him at some of our shows in the future.

A big thank you Kevin and best wishes from us all.

During this transition, Blackbird Orchestra will be auditioning for a new drummer and plan to be playing live again as soon as possible.

Stay tuned for some exciting news regarding a music video.

Remember Saturday Dear Friends!

April 22nd, 2010

Come to Cafe Racer for a night of musical revelry from all corners of the spectrum!

Recoil in lust-sodden terror from the bawdy fatalism of Bat Country!
(Who will be celebrating their first live performance with their full line-up, as well as the birthday of Jill Zirkle, their crystal-voiced key-mistress and spoon-slinger!)

Feel your heart race dangerously at the swoon-inducing melodic murmurings of Blackbird Orchestra!

Dare to contain your soul’s frothy buoyancy at the siren song-stylings of Samantha Lynn!

Attempt in vain to keep your face from being completely scorched off by the fleet-fingered fury of Superfluous – The Ukulele Cover Band!!!

And all of this is completely, absolutely FREE!!! More money for the rivers of booze you will need to maintain your sanity at this onslaught of awesomeness!!! See you all there!

XOXOXO
