photo by 'your friend laura' fews news. tough to write right now. knee deep in holidays and recording. suffice it to say the recording is going great and we'll keep you updated on when its finished. and we have one show lined up right now. Its next week at the Comet Tavern in Capitol Hill. The Quiet Ones threw this show our way and if we didn't love them enough before, we might french kiss them onstge. whew! check SHOWS for details.
Kick back. So I'm sitting here, much later than I would have liked to be writing this, finally kicking back at this cold thats been kicking me for the last week, enjoying a little recent kick-back from my job, looking forward to the kick-attack we're all gonna get this Saturday at the Vera Project. Tucked away in the Northwest side of the Seattle Center this weekend, the Snoqualmie room will stir. Sleepy Eyes of Death will catch you off guard and kick you in the pants, enshrouding you in a dark, dank mist. One TWO! and you're spun around with a kick to the chest by Wesafari's sound blast. POP!! Its a kick to the FACE by Natalie Portman's Shaved Head! The crowd goes wild and ya don't stop! If you have any fight left in you, come show us your moves at the Vera Project this Saturday at this all-ages explosion. Check SHOWS for details. NEWS (09.12.2007) Do you come for news or fun? That show at Neumo's was fun. this space is for news. but can i have a little fun with it? i've been told the news and feeds are too much artsy stuff and not straight to the point enough. i just try to give you your money's worth. and keep you informed enough to help you help us become the biggest thing since Christo's intergalactic saftey pin. But Grizzly Bear ruled the world that night, and we were stoked to be part of it. thanks to all of you who were able to make it. as for the future, I'm pleased to announce some upcoming activity in the wesafari realm. I'll be making two solo appearences this month; one on an internet radio station, and one at a West Seattle cafe. The radio show is Thursday, Sept 27 from 5 to 7PM on Hollow Earth, hosted by our great friend, Levi Fuller. You can tune in to listen no matter where in the world you are. (East Coasters take note: thats 8pm in your world!) The cafe show is at Skylark Cafe & Club on Sunday, September 30, also with Levi Fuller, and Andy McAllister. Thats a freebee for all ages, people, with food, drinks (with ID), and rarely heard acoustic versions of Wesafari songs old and new. And we finally nailed down the details of the Vera Project show on Saturday October 13. Seattle teenage favs Natalie Portman's Shaved Head will be headlining this dancetastic all ages electro-fest! You will sweat and love it. Check details on the SHOWS page. Wildlife on display. things are moving along now for wesafari. writing and rehearsing has been fun and productive. and as promised, we'll be playing more shows now. we're all really stoked about the show this Thursday, Sept 6, at Neumo's. we'll be sharing the bill with Grizzly Bear and Deerhunter, two amazing bands that have been really inspiring for us recently. you couldn't hope for a better grouping of bands. that's all young lovers. just note that both this week's show and the upcoming Vera Project show on October 13 are all ages shows, so there will be some inter-generational partay happening. fear not, you can drink with ID at the Neumo's show, and the Vera show will blow the roof off like nobody's done since Minor Threat. go to SHOWS for details.

NEWS (08.21.2007)
Wesafari returns. It’s
been a while. Over a year. One
came in the form of a new member. Erin Rubin. Wolf and Casey and I have been slowly finishing up the now ancient EP, ‘Moss Green’. Andy did play on it and record it, for those wondering. I’m pleased to say that it is finally mastered and is available to download in its entirety here, as well as in hard copy, a limited pressing sold at shows. Which brings me to that important info. Website. Shows. All new.Welcome to our new website. Levi (Fuller) built it for us. If you don’t know him, find out about him. We played at Chop Suey on July 29th. It was fun and allowed us to work out some kinks. You’ll be able to quickly see upcoming show and tour dates on the ‘SHOWS’ link anytime you want now. We just confirmed a new show on Thurs, Sept 6 opening for Grizzly Bear at Neumo's in Seattle. Hope you can make it! Enjoy the site. –rick |
