We’re back!

After a busy April and early May, we’re back in the saddle again and ready to rock this summer, starting with a show Friday, May 25 at Kung Fu Necktie.

The show is special for many reasons. I will list them here:

  • We love Kung Fu Necktie.
  • We’re opening for The Chairman Dances, and we also love them.
  • Dan W will be filling with The Chairman Dances, so you get more Quelle Source members at the same price.

That seems like a good place to spot. Point being, mark your calendar and such.

All the info you’ll ever need:

Bring your koozies to Milkboy Philly tonight

We’re playing at the best new venue in the city tonight, returning to Milkboy Philly after our last show there in December.

Over the years, Cody Cichowski and the rest of our friends at Milkboy Recording have cast their mixing and mastering magic upon each one of our releases, including The French Rapture [EP], and those hours spent finding just the right “falling down a well” vocal tone and “trusty swirly” keyboard effect tend to pay off when we play at Milkboy.

We’re opening for Juston Stens and the Get Real Gang (Juston is the former drummer of Dr. Dog) and Pomegranates (they recently toured with Blitzen Trapper).

Milkboy has awesome beers in cans, so bring your koozies along with your rockin’ hats.

Rocketship 27, a neon hieroglyph

How’s the weather? We spent the weekend in our basement studio at our HQ in
Fairmount. It’s a secret lair, accessible through a hole in the floor covered by a solid, heavy trap door. The walls are painted with neon hieroglyphs that are thousands of years younger than the ancient Egyptian variety, but are thousands of times more cryptic.

It was the first of a series of sessions recording demos of previously unreleased songs. We have about a dozen on our list and growing, so we’ll have lots more coverage soon, with more sights and sounds of the underground neon basement cave studio.
