Dear appreciated fans,

If you have not figured it out yet, or have not heard, we, Bramble, did not make our goal with our Kickstarter campaign to raise the funds we needed in order to create a full-length album. We tried hard, and THANK YOU! THANK YOU ALL! Thank you so very much for reading our post, watching our video, pledging to donate our cause, and sending us your encouraging words. I guess all we have to say for ourselves for now is: Better luck next time.

However! For the summer, we’re taking a well-deserved break. Pursuing music on our own and on our own time, we’re off enjoying different adventures until further notice.

To follow what James is up to, for instance, you can visit our Youtube channel and view his adventures in Alaska, where he is working as a bicycling tourguide. And you can see us in action as we have done in the past!

With love,

All of us

Hey everybody! Tonight, at midnight, we’re launching our project over Kickstarter.com to raise funds to begin the process of making our first ever, full length album! We’ll be recording it with Feral Frequency Studios on Salt lake City and we’re really excited about it! Please consider donating to our project after you view our page, at Kickstarter.com

Thank you in advance for anything you can do!

No, no, not like “We’re so over the Rockies”, but in the way that we certainly crossed them in all their icy glory! Our first show, in Grand Junction at the Confluence Collective was a welcoming backyard gathering, complete with campfire and good friends Gary (Fuck, Yes!) and Shaun, on their Raise the Stakes! Tour.

Through the mesas of GJ and over the treacherous hills of ski bumming towns, we made it safely to Denver and the Mercury Cafe, where we were happy to please the glorious-mess-makers, do-gooders, rag-taggers, horn-tooters and musical entrepreneurs of the audience, including Laura Goldhamer and the Silvernail, and the surprisingly heart-warming All Liver No Onions. We will miss you Denver, as you are so full of vibrant persons that no punk-house population has enough collective fingers to count off.

Off on the 8+ hour drive ‘cross Kansas. Wish us some excitement for Pete’s sake! I’ll keep my eye out for a Norse god or two to break the monotony of the plain, but I’m not holding my breath.

Love, Bramble

We were sitting around on our butts and wasting our lives away, and someone had a great idea… to go on tour! Check out our Performances page for all details so far!

We thought, as long as we’re at it, we’d swing by the True False Film Festival in Columbia, MO as well. Have a lovely day!

Howdy, folks! This is just a reminder about our show coming up on Monday, February 7th. We’re playing a fundraiser for a local Arts for Youth program at the Columbus Center! It goes from 6 to 8 pm, and entry is completely free. The KRCL page has some additional info on the event, if you’re interested to learn more. We hope to see you there!

Once again, Bramble has successfully traversed the excitement and cold days of Sundance, kicking off 2011 for us in a hell of a way!
Thank you all who visited our website, donated to us for an album, or gave us friendly looks and supportive words as we busked our little hearts out on Main Street.
If you weren’t able to get an album on Saturday the 29th because we ran out, please click HERE to go to our donate page, and I will personally send you a copy of H.A.G.S. no problem!

Please, if you are a visitor to this site, take the time to EMAIL US and we will put you on our contact list and let you know in advance when we plan on touring through your hometown!

Thanks again folks! See you on the flipside…

Oh man, I feel like we’re a bit late in announcing this, but, better late than never!

There’s a great band in town called Matteo who has asked us to be their opening act for a show at the Downtown SLC Library with them this Wednesday the 8th!

It will be our first show in 5 months, and our first show with our new members Matthew Laser and Benjamin Hatch! Please come out and support us and Matteo if you’ve got the wild hair in you to do so! You won’t regret it!

Matteo
Bramble
Nancy Tessman Auditorium
Downtown Library (210 E. 400 S.)
Wed. Dec. 8th @ 7pm (and we’re playing first so it’s really 7 sharp!)

See you soon!

Bramble

Hello readers! So the Autumn 2010 Music-On-Bikes Tour by James Miska and Matt Laser is officially over! The duo has made it tot heir final destination of rural Virginia, outside the town of Louisa, nestled into the intentional community of people living at Twin Oaks. Their adventure is not wholly over, with another 2 weeks to spend at Twin Oaks, wherein there will be music to play, but many of the big cities on the East coast were found to still be impressionable as the two passed through them on their bikes. Their shows went well and busking sometimes went even better. Expect to see them back in action in Utah, come November. (Meaning look for the next Bramble show on this website and in the City Weekly…!)

Love you!
