Ever So Klever is making a radio appearance on WOR NewsTalk Radio 710's The Joey Reynolds Show. The show starts tomorrow at 12:00AM EST (technically Saturday - 7/11) and runs until 6:00AM EST.* The station has an online stream so you can listen in from anywhere in the world! (Not on the east coast of North America and wanna see what time it'll air near you? Check out World Clock)

To stream the show go to http://bit.ly/eskradio or click HERE and look for the "Listen Live" link (centered at the very top of the page -- it's orange). They have different directions depending on whether you're using Mac or PC so you may want to get there a few minutes early to make sure everything goes smoothly for you.

If you're not able to tune in (or even if you do) you can still hear Ever So Klever by heading out to a show or by picking up the new album, Bang Twang Boom, right HERE. There are a lot of new dates up now at eversoklever.com from now through DECEMBER including a show with Florida compatriots Artistic Simplistic this August.

* Please note that this is a change from the previously announced date and time.

Hello friends of Ever So Klever, I would like to write a blog of reflection for you all.  You, my dear reader, may or may not know me, but I am Seth Levy, the manager of Ever So Klever.

Although the Myspace page says Ever So Klever has been a member since 8/16/2008, the band as you all know it did not make its debut until January 16th, 2009.  Before then it was simply in utero, therefore I will speak about the band as if its founding was on January 16th, not August 16th.  I officially took my position as the band's manager a week before this date.

Today Ever So Klever broke 5000 friends on Myspace.  To most that is incredibly insignificant however to me it is huge.  Only four months have passed since Ever So Klever came on the scene.  Since then so much has happened.  Ever So Klever has played over 40 separate public performances.  They have been included in nearly every form of media out there.  On radio, newspaper, television, blogs, tweets, online video, online news, compact disc, magazines, posters, flyers, and have even been included in a soon to be released full length movie.  They have opened the show for greats such as UB40 and The Supervillains and have been invited to open for Big Bad Voodoo Daddy in the not too distant future.  Their crowds have gone from 5 people in a parking lot to tens of thousands at SunFest.  Their biggest fans range from Jack Nicklaus to the homeless guy who dances on Hirmashee St in downtown Ft. Lauderdale, from an 8 year old boy to my 87 year old grandfather.  They have played for 6 major charities and 3 large outdoor festivals.  Other bands have adopted the term 'power swing' which Ever So Klever coined themselves.  And now I am given the great task of booking an 8 week tour throughout the country, starting with the east coast in June. 

This has not come easy.  I have traded in my hobbies, sleep, decent paying job, and everything but my education to make this happen.  My skateboards, Jeep, and other projects collect dust while my phone bill goes up and my computer cramps up.  I have given so much, yet I feel like I have taken even more.  I don't believe in luck, however if I did I would say that I was extremely lucky to have had this opportunity fall into my lap.  The product I am working with, Ever So Klever, couldn't be any better.  The hard work of Rich Plaza, Joel Enriquez, and Michelle Leigh have made my job so much easier than it is supposed to be.  I want to thank them for being so great to me through all the ups and downs that have come about over the past four months.    I could go on and on about how much this year so far has been enhanced by my work with the band, however believe it or not there is still more work to do.  So I bid you farewell, and if you like what you hear, please let the band know by posting a comment on their wall and going to their store at http://eversoklever.com to pick something up.  I will leave my contact information below in case anyone out there has a personal question for me.

If you haven't been to a live Ever So Klever show, you haven't experienced Ever So Klever. Last Saturday we played at a little venue called Alligator Alley and we knew we put on a great show as always, however it wasn't until we saw the following review posted about the show only hours after we stepped off stage.



Last night at Alligator Alley on Commercial Boulevard went from being
an undesirable outing to a mind-boggling experience in musical
innovation. Ever So Klever is a diverse six person group with a wide
range of musical talent, charisma, and personality. Think of a meeting
between Benny Goodman and Machito. Led by the guitarist in a stylish
Fedora, the band is constantly in sync from beginning to end in what
can only be described as a Vegas-style show for a very modest price.
The drummer's syncopation will force you to move in some kind of way
while the energetic, velvety voice and simple aesthetic value of the
lead singer will entrance you into falling prey to her red lips and
stylish vocals. Along with a steady bassist, saxophone/flutist, and an
immensely stunning and precise trumpet player, this band excels in
immersing you into the experience that is their power swing sound. As a
music-lover and frequent music scene hopper I encourage everyone to
check out this unique group of individuals at their website and can
assure you that they will pique your interest at the very least and
earn your patronage, admiration, and friendship at the very best. So if
you like music that makes you feel, dance, and get away from your
troubles for a bit......and think you can resist falling in love with
the Ever So Enticing trumpet player and singer....I hope I'll see you
at the next show. As Hunter S. Thompson once put it so well, "Buy the
ticket, take the ride." Thanks for a great show guys and I can't wait
till the next one.




That was written by Nick Perdomo, someone who has been involved in the music and venue industry for many years.  We decided to repost this with his permission so those of you out there who still haven't made it to an Ever So Klever show will get off your behind and come see us soon!

There is so much happening so fast its hard for even us to keep up with. While we will continue to send out Myspace updates on occasion for MAJOR things, we have decided to create a mailing list using e-mail. This also allows those who are not of Myspace to be informed, which is a plus. So if you would like to be added to the mailing list, please send an email to info@eversoklever.com with "Add Me" in the subject and anything you want in the body, surprise us!

We are also working on creating a street team for the fans that want to help support the band in your local area. We are only going to be accepting a limited number per area, so sign up before word gets out! The street team members will be responsible for distributing demos, posting advertisements, and other ways to get the word out about the Power Swing movement. If interested, email team@eversoklever.com and give us your full name, phone number, address, local metro area, and at least one idea that you could bring to the table. We look forward to see what you have to say!

With a new album just around the corner, this is Ever So Klever saying thank you for all your support so far and we appreciate everything you will bring us in the future.

Okay, it is 4 am and we just got home from the recording studio after spending a whopping 16 hours on site.  What that means for you, our fans, is that you get some new material with our two brand new members, Paula on trumpet Kris on saxophone.  That said, we need your help!
Take a listen to the first two tracks on our playlist.  As their titles indicate, these are rough cuts (very rough cuts) made after a long day of recording, so please keep that in mind.  Once you listen to them, we want to know what you think.  Do you like the horns?  Are they being used well in our music?  Let us know using the Kudos system.  Give us however many Kudos you think the new music deserves (from -2 to 2) using the comment button on the bottom of this post.  We thank you for your honest opinons and look forward to playing for you live in the near future!
