Stereo Off Music Featured in Short Film

Watch it over at http://www.deadredeyes.com/an-idiots-guide-short-film-with-notes-from-the-director or on YouTube.

Stereo Off did the whole soundtrack to “An Idiots Guide – On How Not To Be an Idiot” a short film shot in North Carolina this summer with Dead Red Eyes.

Four of our songs are featured in random parts of the short film (bullet time, effectual, bad friday, the thrill), see if you can spot them. One of the band members makes an appearance in the background at times too.

Stereo Off (On Audio and Visual) at Bowbarr in Carrboro, North Carolina on Sunday Sept 22

If you happen to be in NC currently, check out Bowbarr at 705 W. Rosemary Street, Carrboro, NC 27517

Not only is it a great bar, but they are doing a screening of a couple of short films by Dead Red Eyes tonight (Sunday the 22nd of September), including the premiere of “An Idiot’s Guide on How Not to Be an Idiot“.

Stereo Off is featured in most of the bar’s backing music and soundtrack for the overall flick is mostly made up of our songs and outtakes. One of us makes an occassional appearance in it also (good luck finding it though).

Check it out if you’re in the area, and when the film goes online, we’ll link it up here too.

Stereo Off @ Lit Lounge – Friday, Aug 30

Long time no post. It’s been a great (but busy) summer, with a variety of stuff to move forwards on. Still, to finish on a positive note, the summer brings you a great line up in a dingy basement – to get you ready for the darker nights of drinking back indoors, where you belong.

Friday the 30th of August, 9pm to midnight.

9pm LoveSkills
10pm StereoOff
11pm Band Antenna

Lit lounge is at 93 2nd Ave New York, 10003

$6 admission.

See you there.

Thanks Everyone

Great night on Friday at the Rock Shop.

There are some great quality pics over here though – http://www.flickr.com/photos/42302753@N05/sets/72157633416832974/with/8706473011/ – courtesy of one of Crazy Pills friends I believe….

Had an awesome time with DJ KGB, Auto Bonfire & Crazy Pills, a great bunch, who all sounded brilliant whether on stage or via the speakers. The Rock Shop was solid as always, and we were able to play the following set:

Mi6 / Bullet Time / The Thrill / That Friday / Supercooler / Wait Again / Something’s Happening / Effectual / Highlight Fadeout / Photographs

However, the biggest gamble for us was due to the keyboard breaking earlier in the week (it fell out of its case whilst being carried and got smashed on the concrete sidewalk, lost a couple keys, etc). So instead of borrowing a keyboard from someone else, or just playing a couple of songs with the viola, we (or should I say Bridget) decided to play the viola on all songs. Sounded great though!

See you in a few weeks at the Paper Box.

It’s been a little while, but we’ve been busy getting things together in time for our next show, which is on Friday, May 3rd at The Rock Shop in Brooklyn. Hope to see you there.

We will be on at 10, but its part of a great line up, so we will be there from 8 onwards. Before and after each band will be DJ KGB too, spinning some great tracks. It all starts at 8pm on a Friday, so what better way to start the weekend.

Soundtracks For Indie Films

Just wanted to get the word out about Dead Red Eyes and their upcoming premiere in NC. Two short movies by the indie film makers in particular, “The Torment”, and “Alphabet Soup” – both just finished. One of which has Stereo Off doing the music soundtrack for it, the other has some cuts from my previous band. So its sort of self-promotion. But cross-promotion too. Does that make it better or worse? Anyway, find out more at www.deadredeyes.com. Once the film is publicly available, we’ll update the link here too.

Stereo Off at Arlene’s Grocery – Setlist and Video

Thanks to everyone that came out last night to see us at Arlene’s Grocery. We gave away some t-shirts and stuck around for rock and roll karaoke afterwards, to hear what you had for us. Loads of people may have been out of town, but we still got a great turn out and a fun night. Also turns out the gig overall was one of the “5 Best Things in NYC to do that night” according to CBS New York at http://newyork.cbslocal.com/

Anyway, cheers to Eleanor and everyone at Arlene’s. A few videos were sent to us and we’ve put them on YouTube for now. One of them appears at the top of this post. As for the set list, it went like this:

MI6
Bullet Time
Bad Friday
The Thrill
Supercooler
Wait Again (video above)
Somethings Happening
Effectual
LA Dreaming
Photographs

So that’s ten songs this time and our last gig of 2012.

Here’s to a great 2013 for everyone.

Arlene’s Grocery Not Acme Underground

This pic below is not Acme Underground, but whatever happened to that place? Used to be one of the NYC key venues, but long closed I guess. Does that make me old. Should I tell people about shows at Coney Island High? Or going to Tramps NYC?

Anyway, we’ll be at Arlene’s Grocery on Friday, December 28th, 10pm sharp. More info to come soon.

And as for Acme Underground. Its been re-incarnated as a restaurant and cocktail bar! What the?!

Stereo Off at Pianos – Setlist

Thanks to all those who came out on a damp Monday night to see us at Pianos. I know I would have struggled to be out on a Monday night like last night, with day job making me pay the price this morning, so we do appreciate the support. Anyway, more pictures and videos to come soon.

Set list for the show at Pianos on Monday, December 10th was as follows:

Supercooler
Bullet Time
The Thrill
Wait Again
Something Happening (video below)
Mi6
LA Dreaming
Photographs

See you later in the month.

The Things We Do

Yeah I know I shouldn’t put up all the “works in progress”. And I’ve been advised otherwise. But I really like this one. Even if its the instrumental version without vocals.

See you Monday. We’ve also now got another show confirmed for later in December.

Hurricane Sandy Delays

Hey, its been a while since we posted. Mainly due to the events last week, where some of us, and our close friends were disconnected, flooded, stranded with no transit or gas, and/or surrounded by things like this:

Hope you and everyone you know are ok. We had no choice but to postpone a couple of things, and even the area where we rehearse is a bit off limits at this point, but hopefully back on track soon.
