Wetlands Preserved

Posted on by

WETLANDS was one of the hottest music venues in New York City for over 10 years. Until 2001 this former Chinese food warehouse in Tribeca hosted the latest up-and-coming artists in every musical genre. People still rave about the time they first encountered DAVE MATTHEWS BANDS, BLUE TRAVLER, PHISH or PEARL JAM. Others never visited, but have seen the signature Wetlands bus in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame or have listened to the celebrated live recordings from the club’s intimate stage.

But Wetlands was more than a typical rock and roll joint. For many the name evokes a spirit, a community, an ethos. As a self-styled “Eco-Saloon,” the place was as devoted to environmental and political issues as it was to partying and great music. This insightful and entertaining new documentary tracks the history of this first-ever activist nightclub, with vintage footage, original recordings and new digital animation.

Video: Pay What You Want for the Umphrey’s Bundle

Posted on by

Groupees, an innovative new flash sale platform featuring digital media content from leading independent artists, announced today that it will be launching its next promotion featuring Chicago’s improg sensation, Umphrey’s McGee. Slated to start Wednesday, April 13th at noon, the Umphrey’s Bundle will run for 72 hours and is priced using “Pay What You Want” which allows fans to name their price with a minimum of $5 (products retail for $24). The Umphrey’s Bundle also includes a special bonus product if the promotion’s goal of 10,000 purchases is met:

Never before heard Umphrey’s track (currently still in production)
Here’s the chance to hear it before it becomes a live staple! All participating fans will receive the mp3 once the sales threshold is attained.

The Umphrey’s Bundle includes:
  • Mantis– Umphrey’s McGee’s latest studio album which Rolling Stone called “… their slickest and most ambitious tunes yet.”
  • Live from Toad’s Place Acoustic– In April of 2009, the band snuck back into the legendary hole in the wall that is Toad’s Place for an extremely rare, 2 set acoustic show. They ditched the amps for bar stools and let it all hang out in celebration of drummer Kris Myers birthday. This intimate recording showcases the band in a relaxed & festive environment and allows their midwestern humor and musical sensibilities to shine through. The set list is comprised of a slew of fan favorites (including the debut of Ride On Pony) as well several classic cover tunes from Bob Seger to Pink Floyd.
  • Linear– The energy was palpable this evening as the band kicked off its 2 night Halloween run at the majestic Pageant Theater in St. Louis, MO. This video highlights the band’s seamless blend of styles as they interweave electronic grooves with razor sharp rock licks. Combine that with robust lighting production and Halloween teases sprinkled throughout and you’ve got yourself a weighty and wildly entertaining 12+ minutes.
  • Tool Meets Umphrey’s– Hot of the presses from this year’s UMBowl, this video is the essence of UM. During this one of a kind event, fans submitted themes in real time via text message and choice submissions were selected as a basis for their improvisation. This captures Umphrey’s unique ability to compose on the spot using loosely discussed ideas.

The Bully Project Promo
This year, over 5 million American kids will be bullied at school, online, on the bus, at home, through their cell phones and on the streets of their towns, making it the most common form of violence young people in this country experience.

The Bully Project is the first feature documentary film to show how we’ve all been affected by bullying, whether we’ve been victims, perpetrators or stood silent witness. We are also seeking donations to complete the film…indiegogo.com/The-Bully-Project
