Angry Egptologist

Check out some of these wicked photos from our ECMA trip to Moncton - Big thanks to Heidi and Paul for the camera work and for sharing these with us! (In fact, these new photos inspired me to put a whole lot of new pictures in our galleries. Take a look.)

Moncton, Chester (aftermath)

What a great weekend! Thanks to the wicked audiences that came to see us and who made those shows so much fun. We got to play in what really are two of the best venues anywhere in the country - The Empress in Moncton (which is part of the Capitol Theatre) and the Chester Playhouse. If you don't know either than put 'em on the list of venues to visit.

East Coast Music Award WIN!

This morning we won an ECMA for Best Jazz Recording of the year! We're very proud of this album and this recognition it has earned. Big thanks to Howard Bilerman at hotel2tango for recording "Constellation", Kyle at Forward Music for helping us put it out, Sydney Smith for the great art work and to many many others who made it possible. This visit to Moncton has been a wicked success so far - We've played two great shows and are having lots of fun. Wish us luck at the gala on Sunday.

Video Vote, Next to the Best Dressed

We were just voted to be the Silver Award winners for "Best Dressed Act" in The Coast's Best of Music survey. Thanks y'all. It makes learning to tie a tie seem that much more worth while. Also, remember to vote for "Agricola & Sarah" as the ECMA's Fan Choice Video of the Year - we want to win and will need your help to eclipse George Canyon, Classified and all the other heavies in the category. The poll is only open until the 6th of April - Vote here!

Symphony Show After Glow

Friday night was luminous! We and symphony Nova Scotia completely sold out the Rebecca Cohn (1100 seats) and had the most wonderful time possible. It was really unbelievable. That was a musical dream-come-true for all of us. I wish we could do it again right away. Thanks to the SNS for giving us a chance to do that, and thanks to everyone who came to watch. For everyone else, stay tuned - we got some beautiful video of the concert that we can't wait to share wit'cha. And in the meantime you can read this review of the night.
