Philly Local Notes: Pick of the Day, BC Camplight, and Upcoming Shows!
Good day local lovers! We have a slew of information we are just itchin' to give you so here it goes!
Philly Local Pick of the Day 6/19/07: "Other Family"
Blue Method
Kill The Music Vol. 2
The story of The Blue Method is a story defined by two words; perseverance and determination. The band was formed in 2001 by founding members Michael Patriarca (guitar) and Tom Long (saxophone) and over the years, the band has shared the stage with the likes of Soulive, Chick Corea, Bela Fleck and the Flecktones, The Benevento Russo Duo, Ozomatli, John Legend, Little Feat, Oteil Burbridge (Allman Brothers Band), Leela James, The Disco Biscuits, and Ween. They have also managed to sell over 7000 copies of their first album “Kill the Music, Vol 1”, which is no small task for a completely independent act.
In 2005 The Blue Method was named “Best New Act” by the Home Grown Music Network. Their song “Don’t They” holds the record as the all time #1 funk song at Garageband.com. In 2005 they also won the annual Relix Magazine Jam-off award.
The Blue Method's CD Release party for their newest album, "Kill The Music Vol. 2", will be THIS SATURDAY at World Cafe Live! For tickets, visit XPN's Concert Calendar.
