Dear Everybody Violet Fans,
Many of you fans have been patiently waiting for an original CD; which is long overdue. We had hoped to deliver sometime in 2010, but life got in the way! The band is currently on hiatus, with our long-time drummer Joey Miller moving on, and some other members busy with life changes. That being said, we plan to regroup in The Bay Area in late spring of 2010 to rehearse with a new drummer and prepare to play live and record our long awaited debut CD! We really can't wit for that. It will be like giving birth to a child after 20 years of incubation!
In the meantime,
Everybody Violet fans can catch a dose of the vocal prowess and lyrical lamentations of frontwoman Kristi Maddocks in
The Che Underground collaborative band The Blues Gangsters, on their debut CD "The Perils of Life" (Furious Babyface Records).
Miss Kristi wrote a third of the album and sings on over half of it, sharing vocal duties with her longtime friend and the notorious, once impish leader of
The (San Diego)
Wallflowers, David Rinck. Also in the band is Everybody Violet members David Fleminger and Heather Vorwerk, who together make up the neo-clasical rock duo
The Comeuppance! The Comeuppance are busy at work on their debut CD, due out very soon!
If you would like to check out or purchase
The Perils of Life, we suggest you shop online at
CDBaby.com or

The Blues Gangsters have
