Lineup flyer web FINAL Lightning In a Bottle: a Party of All Parties

We are happy to present forthcoming HEADLINE additions to the soon approaching and much anticipated Lightning in a Bottle Music and Arts Festival 2010, presented by The Do Lab, which will occur Memorial Day weekend (May 28-31) at the beautiful Oak Canyon Ranch in Irvine, CA.

On the heels of their upcoming release “Drink the Sea”, and after a stand-out Coachella performance, The Glitch Mob will be performing along with the indie sensation Nico Vega and our cherished brothers and sisters, the Lucent Dossier Experience.

We would like to offer our sincerest thanks to all of the amazing submissions on the “Mixtape to Make the Line-up” contest. Not surprisingly our three top finalists were all unbelievable female DJ’s… The submissions have all been great and it was quite a task picking the “Grand Producer” to perform at this years LIB, but alas we have chosen and her name is KRYSTEE!

Other musical additions include Heyoka, Sidecar Tommy, Kitty D, The Luminaries, Geno Cochino, The Makers, Ron Levy, Michael Hart, Manny Greensector, Terrakroma, Motion Potion and DJ Wolfie.

Performances added in addition to Lucent Dossier include, Vau de Vire Society, El Circo, Ricochet ~ Poetic Acrobats, Fire Groove, Stilt Circus, The Wandering Marionettes and Shakti Sunfire

For full lineup and additional information visit the LIB website and stay tuned for more exciting news in the coming weeks.

Record Store Day: Gets Russell Brand/Infant Sorrow Band Tee

Record Store Day just got another new and limited addition item… Check out “The Beast Without” Tee from Get Him To The Greek. Aldous Snow’s (Russell Brand) band, Infant Sorrow also has a new album out on June 1st. myspace.com/infantsorrow

Today, April 17th, GET HIM TO THE GREEK will be participating in Record Store Day by releasing the first in a very limited series of INFANT SORROW tour shirts. One of the most influential rock bands of the decade, Infant Sorrow churned out a steady string of hit albums that not only reinvigorated the stagnant rock scene of the late 90s but went on to define a generation. Led by notorious front man Aldous Snow (Russell Brand), whose scandalous exploits are well documented on both sides of the Atlantic, Infant Sorrow is widely considered the last truly great rock and roll band. “The Beast Without” shirt will only be available at participating Record Store Day locations while supplies last!

Check out recordstoreday.com to find a store near you!

Get Him to the Greek, in theaters June 4, reunites Jonah Hill and Russell Brand with Forgetting Sarah Marshall director Nicholas Stoller in the story of a record company executive with three days to drag an uncooperative rock legend to Hollywood for a comeback concert. The comedy is the latest film from producer Judd Apatow. Also starring Sean Combs, Elisabeth Moss, Rose Byrne and Colm Meaney.
