Total Fail, Julian: Post by Sam!

MOBLEY VIDEO

Julian and I shot this film, albeit the not so outstanding audio, on a decently cold evening in March. Mobley, hailing all the way from Austin, Texas, were awesome enough to give ZBC an entire evening of their time so we could film them in their natural environment!



Check out Mobley at www.mobleytheband.com and make sure you get to see them live next time they are in the area... sources say maybe in the fall. And just so you know what you're getting into- these guys are packin' their live set complete with multiple tvs ON stage, beautiful, beautiful, beautiful LED lights and more that is all synced to their performance. 



Bottom line: you can dance your heart out when you aren't mesmerized by what their doing on stage!
We're giving their creativity an A+


If you like it, let us know- there ARE more videos to come!


LOVE,


DJs Julian and Sam

Review: Greg Hawkes @ The Magic Room Gallery

Progressive psychedelic and experimental aren’t words usually associated with ukulele songs, but Greg Hawkes’ gig at the Magic Room Gallery on Saturday night was exactly that. Hawkes was greeted by an enthusiastic crowd who lapped up the eclectic set that included renditions of songs by The Cars, mesmerizing synthpop numbers and tunes from his latest CD ‘The Beatles Uke.’ Hawkes also performed some experimental poetry with opening act Casey Desmond, to the crowd’s delight, before being joined on stage by two fellow ukulele players and launching into covers of his favorite Beatles classics. Ever the professional, Greg gave a spirited performance that was sure to please all in attendance.

Stay tuned for more WZBC sponsored gigs!
