We’d like to officially welcome The Internationals to the Foul Country family. The boys in the band have been with us for a long time, but this new incarnation is something special. Check out some sample tracks from their new CD “Live at Smith’s Olde Bar” then go ahead and buy yourself a copy.

Better yet, if you are in Atlanta, stop by Smith’s Olde Bar on January 20th where they will be performing live with the Danny Family and get your copy in person.

I thought Gene and Dean were playing with the live band by the time Chocolate and Cheese came out, but this may have pre-dated the album release. Either way, it’s a great performance of “Freedom of ‘76″ and the interview at the beginning is pretty hilarious.

Two very cool new videos of the track “Unsilvered Mirrors” from Untied States ‘ new album Instant Everything, Constant Nothing. The first video was performed live in the studios of the Digital Arts Entertainment Lab for the WRAS | indieATL music series. The Second is the official promotional video from US’s new record label Distile.

This is a great example of how much a good sound man can help your playing…

And a Santana jazz odyssey…

And an alternate version of Star Wars…

These have been floating around for a while now, but I just found the source — they are all done by StSanders — and he has a great website with an entire library of these videos.

Finally I will leave you with a new take on a classic Stones video…

For those of uninitiated to the mysterious magic of a live Galleon! show, please check out this video from the annual 500 Songs for Kids show at Smith’s Olde Bar. 500 bands are asked to come out and perform one song to help various children’s hospitals around the country. Click here for more information.

And now Galleon!’s version of George Michael’s “Faith.”

This a new video from The Fadge. The song is “Castillo’s Lament” from the album Bean Feast.

Quoted from the official press release:

Most of you will remember Lieutenant Martin Castillo from the hit TV show Miami Vice. This song is based on what we thought might be going on in his head at any given moment of the day.

Join Bobby, High-Hat Harry, Gary Giggles, and Lady Tippy-Toes on Saturday morning for a new wild adventure featuring the Bobby the Bi-Polar Bear Theme Song by Skurj!
