Shotgun Party: News

Updates... - February 23, 2010

Dear Friends, Fans and Buddies! Dear Everyone,
We just had the MOST FUN weekend at the Folk Alliance with our new Agent Virginia Prater from Charisma Artist Agency. She seemed to know everybody in Memphis, really hlped us meet some great industry people, and she didn't mind sharing a bed with Jenny in a tiny Hotel Room with four of us! ha ha!
So in other news, we are about to embark on our third tour of Florida. We have shows in Gainesville, Tampa, Deland, Cape Canaveral, St Augustine's Beach, Breax Bridge Louisiana, Houston, etc! When we get back to Austin we are playing some cool shows for SXSW and in early April we are opening for Southern Culture on the Skids in San Antonio!
We are so please to announce two upcoming European tours for this year. May 20-June 6th we will be touring Belgium and Holland and we've been booked thru Surfing Airlines. We are also keeping our fingers crossed because in December we might be touring Germany with Jeff and Vida, and Michael Cleveland and Flamekeeper! OH BOY! Anyhow- We have been getting GREAT reviews on Mean Old Way, posted in the Press section, and we are still on the Texas Roots Music Charts! Wahoo!
Keep in touch everybody!

luv

and our very own Chris Crepps is now full time touring with Dale Watson! =) Good for him!

Shotgun Party had a BIG Year! - November 30, 2009

Dear World,

This year was busy! We went all over the country, from Texas to Seattle up the West Coast and down thru the Rockies. We saw the bayous of Louisiana and the shores of Florida several times. We've just come home from a WONDERFUL trip up to NY and New England, and we got to see a lot of the South on our way home to boot. We had an awesome year, and we're so excited to announce that we our now part of the Charisma Artist Agency! We have a booking agent! Hooray! They are home to some of our favorite bands and boy do we feel lucky! Thanks for all the support, we couldn't do it without all the fine people we know and have met along the way....Hope everyone has a happy holiday season and lots of love to you!
