Vonnegutt – Live Video Recap

Friends Vonnegutt returned to Star Community Bar last month to play our our free show series w/ Bosco and Killer & The Savage. Whynatte co-hosted the party. It was super fun and super cool of Vonnegutt considering the whirlwind year they had in 2011. These guys are so fresh and so pro. Enjoy this video recap I just found of the show!

Viva La Balkans via Summerlin

Friend Tony Summerlin (Atlanta) recently made this super cool video for Zebra Print by Balkans. Here it is. Love it.

When my friend Mike Walbert from SMKA called a while back to ask if I wanted to be “an extra in a hip-hop video,” I must admit that I had a few preconceived notions of what this might entail;) But true to form, he had other things in mind. Wait for it…

Ps. I love Jarren Benton. Check out his previous work:

Holiday Soiree – Recap

Much love and thanks to all that came out to our 4th Ward Heroes Holiday Soirée last week at Star Bar Atlanta — so much fun! Factory, Mood Rings, Gorgeous, Cole Alexander, and Bradord Cox put on some really stellar performances. I am a very lucky girl to have such amazingly talented friends. Speaking of friends, my friend Matthew Smith of Shadowboxer Photography sent me a very special video he captured of Bradford Cox performing a Christmas song he wrote titled “Artificial Snow” live at the event and some cool pics of a few of the performances (below). Happy Holidays! Enjoy!

October rocked, thanks to all of you.

October was a fantastic month for 4th Ward Heroes thanks to all of you! I kicked things off working with Bands on Demand and Star Community Bar at the Little Five Points Halloween Festival on October 16th.  Bands on Demand got a bunch of great footage including interviews with many local bands on the bill, so be sure to check out the episode Channel 1 > Get Local > ATL Music and Movie Scene > Bands On Demand.

On behalf of myself and co-presenters Kim Burdges + Jessica Lewis of Mixtape Atlanta, much love + thanks to everyone who came out to DigATL Circus on October 28th at Star Community Bar. What a fun night! Special thanks to all of the performers: Travis Thatcher [aka Voice of Saturn], Cousin Dan, Fly Golden Eagle, Shitty Candy & The Circus Peanuts, Machines Are People Too and The Falcon Lords! Truly fantastic performances all around!

Thank you to all of our production assistants and glowstick girls Veronica Yung, Jedi Jess, Aliya Carnes, Christianna Merry Huber, Alice Kim. We could not have pulled it off without all of you!
