Unfortunately, the most recent lineup of Tunesmith has disbanded. We're also taking the

Don't dispair, though. Tunesmith will be back. Watch the site for news and updates
on what's going on.

First, we'd like to thank everyone that came to our show at Flicka's on the 31st and everyone that made it out to Laughlin to see us last weekend. We had an incredible time and really enjoyed playing with with Blackout. If you can make it to one of their shows in California, don't miss these guys -- they put on an excellent show and do an amazing job sounding like The Scorpions. I though we were listening to Klaus himself but it was Tim!! Incredible job, guys.
This Wednesday, August 18th, we're going to be playing all night at Thunder Pass in Apache Junction (yes, Apache Junction...yes, Wednesday night). We hope you'll all take Thursday off to join us for a hump-day party in the East Valley. Check the shows page for all the details and directions.
Maybe it will be easier to get you folks out on Friday instead. So...Friday night (August 20th) we have an all-night show at the Parkview Tap House in Fountain Hills. This will be one of our first shows with the bars open later. New Arizona bar hours have the lush-houses now open until 2am. This means that we'll probably start a little later than usual and will play later, too. Looks like we'll have to get used to the Vampire lifestyle -- we hope you join us...

We've had another of those last-minute bookings for this Saturday (July 31st) at Flicka's in South Scottsdale (near Scottsdale Road and Mcdowell). We'll be playing
all evening starting at around 9 and playing until close. Flicka's is a great club with lots of people, lots of room and NO COVER CHARGE. Please help us make a good
showing and spend your Saturday night with us -- check the shows page for the address and a map. We'll also be playing some of the
new material we've been writing for the upcoming album so come and hear Sticks and Stones and Ode to a Junkie and let us know what you think. Let all
your friends know and drag them out for a great night of music and debauchery.
The band will be headed back up to Laughlin next weekend for a Saturday night (August 7th) show at the Avi Hotel and Casino. We're looking forward to sharing the night with Blackout, a Scorpions tribute band from Southern California. We'll be playing a one-hour set of almost all-original stuff and Blackout will finish the night. Make your plans to join us now...

Last weekend in Bullhead City/Laughlin was, as usual, an absolute blast. It was really great
to see a bunch of friends make the trip and come party with us, too -- big thanks to everyone
that did.
We're playing a private party on July 4th so we won't be be playing anywhere publicly this
holiday. Look for us around Phoenix again soon.
We also have another new booking that's very cool -- on Saturday, August 7th, we have a show at
the Avi Casino in Laughlin. We
share the bill with a Scorpions tribute band from California called Blackout. This should
be a very cool show and we're really excited about it. We hope as many of you as possible
will make it out to see us. Until then...

A huge thanks to everyone that showed up to our last-minute show on Saturday at Schmedley's.
It was terrific fun and we hope to be back there really soon.
This coming weekend we'll be in Bullhead City for another of our favorite out-of-town
adventures at Lazy Harry's.
Will we have strippers this time? Who knows -- all we know is that we have to get out of
this heat. There's still time for anyone to make their reservations and join us on
the Colorado River. We'll be staying at the
Colorado Belle hotel/casino in Laughlin and hope to see a bunch of friends there.
Also, look for us to premier a brand new song we've been working on along with a few new covers.

Last Minute Show - there was a cancellation at Schmedley's in north Scottsdale
so we got an all-night show on Saturday, June 19th (click here
for the details). We haven't played in Scottsdale for a while so we hope everyone in the
area will come check out the show. We've added some new covers recently including songs
from Godsmack and Nickelback. Let's show this bar that short notice doesn't matter --
we can still pack the place!
Next weekend (June 25th and 26th) has us back in Bullhead City playing the Colorado
River's rowdiest double-wide party spot,
Lazy Harry's. You never know what's going to happen at this place so come
join us in a road trip adventure. We usually stay across the river at the
Colorado Belle
for all-night gambling and drinking after the show. It's not too late to book a room
and get out of town with us. See you there...

There's new functionality up and running on the site. Most importantly, we have
the Pictures page up and it's pretty cool
-- take a look. Also, we have the Band History,
Fan Art and Street Team
pages running. Enjoy...
This coming weekend we have another very exciting opportunity. On Saturday (May 22nd),
Firebird Raceway is hosting SCO Nights. This in an event open for the public to drag race sport
compact cars on the quarter mile. In addition to the heads-up racing, car shows and burnout
contests, we'll be performing between 8 and 10pm. Details, prices (children under 12 are free)
and a discount coupon are available at their web site (see above). Links are also available
from our Shows page. Hope to see you all there...

What a killer weekend! We took first place in the Colorado Belle's Battle of the
Bands. There were eight other great bands including second place winners Soulful
Horizons from Phoenix and third place locals Brimfire. The competition was
tough and we had to perform first (at noon) but the outcome was really incredible. A
big thanks goes out to
The Colorado Belle,
Lucky98 and all the new friends and fans we made.
We have this coming weekend off but will be back at the Parkview Tap House in
Fountain Hills for an all-night show on Friday, April 30th. Until then...

We've got some new functionality working on the site now. In addition to the
Shows page, we've now added
Contacts, News Archives and
Downloads pages. If you haven't heard the 4-song
EP yet, download the songs and check them out. We're very excited about them and
it's just the start of our next album. If you have any trouble downloading the mp3's,
please send us a message from the Contacts page.
Next weekend we'll be in Laughlin, Nevada for the Colorado Belle's Battle of the Bands.
We've placed for the last two years and hope to do so again. If anyone wants to get out
of town, we'd love to have your support. Check the Shows
page for the finer details. Our next show in the Phoenix area will be at the Parkview
Tap House in Fountain Hills on Friday, April 30th. Hope to see you all there...

Well, this is it...the new web site. As you can see, it's up and running with minimal
functionality (only this page and the Shows page).
Watch for more stuff to get implemented in the next few weeks (as time
permits). If it takes a little longer, please be patient as we haven't been able to
quit our day jobs just yet.
The next piece of exciting news is our new EP. We spent a whopping one day in the
studio laying down the tracks. The music was all tracked live -- Paul then added the
vocal tracks. We came back about a week later and finished the mix-down in a few hours.
However, don't let the speed with which things were done fool you. The result is a
terrific high-energy recording showcasing our latest tunes. In addition, this is the
first chance we've had to record with Aubrey playing bass. This is something we've been
itching to do for the last year and it was well worth the wait. But hey, don't take our
word for it, listen for yourself! Come to any of our shows and we'll get you a free copy.
When the Listen/Download page is running, you'll be able to
download mp3's for free.
