Capybara Tour Update Numero Uno


CAPYBARA / The Wimp / Radio Performance from mark harrison on Vimeo.

Here is the first of many tour videos you will be seeing from Capybara as they are on the road. Here they are jammed in a tight little KCOU radio station booth in Columbia, MO.

Which KCOU among many other stations around the country are playing Capybara. They debuted at #156 on the CMJ charts last week. They are now up to #128. If you already playing the record we all want to thank you very much. If you are at a college radio station or near one please add Capybara or request it for us.

Capybara has also been getting some nice press

Capybara is probably one of the most original sounding pop bands we have yet to hear in 2009.

Two records out this week!


For the first time ever we released 2 records on the same day. The First one is the re-release of Capybara – Try Brother and the other is The Billen Brothers – Porubsky’s soundtrack.

Capybara

Capybara has now left KC and is on their big 3 month west coast tour. You really should go check them out if you are out west. They will be all over the place and you can find dates on their myspace. But they are making a brief stop in next week to play at the Replay Lounge and Record Bar on the 7th and 8th of September. A couple of songs from the record were featured on MVB Music and Said The Gramophone. The record is also out to college radio right now. So if you work at a college radio station dig around for a bit and you should find it. Thanks the 19 stations that already playing it. It is was the 16th most added record this week on CMJ.

The Billen Brothers

As for the Billen Brothers the record is Soundtrack to a film about a Topeka Deli. The brothers grew up in Topeka and were asked to create some fitting songs. If you want you can check out this Behind The Music Feature:

Sam Billen

In other Billen news Sam is just about finished with his new record Headphones and Cellphones. It should come out in October. It is a really beautiful record and sure to please many long time Billions fans and make quite a few ones too.

Several of the bands are playing shows right now so keep an eye on their myspaces and our shows page.
