Hey Friends!
 
It's been a whirlwind since the start of 2009, but we are back with some great news to share...
 
 
---THE DRUMMER SEARCH IS OVER---
We're proud and excited to have Michael Allen behind the drum kit for us!  Michael is an amazingly talented drummer and fits in with The Julia Dream perfectly.  Come and hear Michael in action as he makes his debut performing with the band on April 24th at Lenny's.
 
 
Which leads us to...
 
---UPCOMING SHOWS---
 
*FRIDAY - APRIL 24TH*
The Julia Dream @ Lenny's - Atlanta
 
This will be an incredible lineup that you won't want to miss as we share the stage with:
Attention System
Spy For Hire
SlowEarth
 
The Julia Dream is the second band of the evening, playing at 10PM sharp! 
(This is for everyone who always asks why we play so late ;-) )
 
 
*WEDNESDAY - MAY 6TH*
"500 Songs For Kids" Benefit @ Smith's Olde Bar - Atlanta
 
We're always proud to be a part of such a worthy cause, and you won't believe what song we've been asked to perform this year!
 
You'll have to come hear for yourself, but here's a hint:
This song, released in 1989, was seen as a major comeback for a certain female artist. 
The video for the song caused much controversy because of the netted outfit worn by the singer.
(By the way, we're all hoping to wear similar outfits at our 500 Songs appearance!  j/k)
 
 
*SUNDAY - JUNE 14TH*
CRUEfest Benefit @ 10 High - Atlanta
 
This is another great cause that we're thrilled to be a part of!

Check out The Julia Dream's very own Matt Spatial in part 2 of his interview with Gearwire.com.

In this installment:

Matt Spatial plays bass for the Julia Dream, and he's pretty much solid on his Ampeg B2R, one of the more inexpensive Ampeg models that he originally bought with intent to upgrade down the road. The B2R convinced him otherwise, and for the price it was a figurative steal.

He uses a Boss DS-1 distortion pedal because it preserves the low end while still providing clarity, unlike many other distortion pedals that he's tried. His Boss DS-1 distortion pedal was a literal steal as he borrowed it from a guitarist friend and never returned it. Typical Bassist. (Matt's Note:  Haha - yeah, this is true... but that guy was a douche!)

Enjoy!!

Check out The Julia Dream's very own Matt Spatial in part 1 of his interview with Gearwire.com.

In this first installment:

The Julia Dream's Matt Spatial primarily plays his Gibson Thunderbird bass. All in all, it's a solid bass -- the quintessential rock bass according to Matt. Matt explains how he gets his tone with the Thunderbird and warns that its neck did snap once.
