Albuquerque, NM

Imagine an Obama Victory Party already on the books! That’s confidence in action. First though all good adults must prepare for another fantastic event: Halloween. Perhaps you’ve noticed Halloween isn’t just for kids anymore. Beware of wild adults decked out in outrageous costumes roaming the hills and canyons of Santa Fe. Add a lot of college kids, and the children might really get scared. To help reduce the fright factor, many locations have incredible parties to capture that adult bazaarity and keep the streets safer for wandering young-ins. Round these parts, malls and other public venues have early highly supervised parties for the kids too. I’ll b e at work myself, and perhaps I’ll dawn and outfit to perplex my customers. So prepare for mucho fun! This week’s primo feature: Santa Fe Brewing CO Bar and Grill.

HALLOWEEN

“POISON” CD RELEASE PARTY!

A FROGVILLE RECORDS SPECIAL COSTUME DANCE PARTY EVENT WITH BLOOD GUTS ROCK n’ ROLL FEATURING

HUNDRED YEAR FLOOD

GIT YOUR “POISON”!!

Hope everyone can come out and spend Halloween with us to help us celebrate the release of our new cd, “POISON”. We were going to name the album “Hell or High Water” but Poison just fit better with the incredible art John Treadwell came up with for the cover. Also, after filming our music video “Poison” it just made sense to name the album after that song. We will be coming up with a cool banner very soon promoting the album that we hope you’ll add to your page! Can’t f**kin’ wait!! Taarka will start off the night. They are an amazing band you won’t want to miss. COSTUMES!! CANDY!! NAUGHTY FLOODERS COME ON!!

WITH SPECIAL GUESTS

TAARKA
Emerging from a long tradition of gypsy circus troubadours come the solar- powered travelers: carriers of a new musical light; Taarka. This merry band is the culmination of the new millennial, sonic adventures of David Tiller (mandolin, tenor guitar, vocals), Enion Pelta-Tiller (five string violin, vocals), Daniel Plane (cello, vocals), Troy Robey (bass, vocals), and Dale Largent (percussion) - a virtuosic cadre of performers who have roamed the freeways and backroads of the new and old acoustic caravan trail in search of a revolutionary ancient sound for modern times. While the four musicians have individually been spreading song and tune over the aural superhighway since the last century, their collaborative intersection marks a new era of Taarkan tunesmithing. TAARKA is set to release their fourth album, featuring the fantastic new line-up, a guest appearance by superstar fiddler Casey Driessen, and a collection of beautifully written and arranged songs and original instrumentals swimming the gamut of indie-gypsy chamber folk. www.hundredyearflood.com www.myspace.com/taarka

KIM & the CABALLEROS

Country, 2-step & Rockabilly!

Kim says: “My mom force fed old country (we’re talkin’ Loretta, Cash, Waylon, Willie and the boys) to me at an early age, and I rebelled, first playing bass in an 80s rock band, “The Bohiems”, later becoming a folkie, still leaning in the rock genre, but mostly writing tortured love songs and political/social stuff in the band “Burning Joan.” For giggles, in 2003 I recorded a bastardized version of “Blue Eyes Cryin’ in the Rain” for my mom’s birthday, and it all took off from there. I realized my roots had caught up to me and I liked it. We recordered the CD Blue Hearted Girl at Howlin’ Dog Studios in Alamosa, Co. and in Nashville. I live in Taos, New Mexico with my children; work with homeless youth at the DreamTree Project; garden; ride my horse, Nugget, up in the mountains (just like the song says); and sing big ‘ol twangy country every chance I get.” www.myspace.com/kimandthecaballeros
