Music and Pictures

2006-08-29T08:10:00.000-04:00

We had a great time at Bill's Bar, and we thank Sooz for taking a few pictures of us, including the one above. Catch those on flickr.

Also, Sooz does the Boston rock scene a great service by running Exploit Boston, a local music blog, and Exploit Boston Radio, an online radio station of local Boston rock. Be sure to check 'em out, she plays some great music!

Snakes on a Plane, AND bands in a bar!

2006-08-10T13:29:00.000-04:00

Before I begin apologizing for the lack of updates, like 99% of all bloggers out there, let me state this:

We are in the midst of a cultural revolution. Snakes on a Plane is opening on August 18th. We also happen to be playing that night as well. So go see the movie early, then stop on by and yell at us about how awesome it is.

This week in the Phoenix: us

2006-02-16T09:33:00.000-05:00

Well well well, we're featured in the Phoenix's "Cellars By Starlight" this week.

You can pick a copy of the paper anywhere around the city, but if you prefer interweb reading, just click yo ass over here.

The article says that we're all married, which might be news to John. Heh.

Interview at Bostonist

2006-02-10T13:01:00.000-05:00

So we were interviewed by the folks (rather, just one folk) from Bostonist.com this week. Feel free to, you know, read it.

I remembered us making more sense at the time, but there you go. I need some better lies about the band name, and I have to learn to stick with them. Suggestions welcome.

Hey, whaddaya know? Everyone's favorite power pop husksters will be performing on February 10, 2006 at Bill's Bar on Lansdowne St, Boston. This is part of WFNX's New England Product series. You can catch us with Ad Frank and the Fast Easy Women and the Lincoln Conspiracy. I'm pretty sure we're going on first, not sure of the rest of the order, though.

Hey everyone. Welcome to the first entry on Anushka Pop's weblog. 2006 may prove to be a busy year for the Anushkas so what better way to document it than..blah, blah, blah. We'll see how this goes...

First off, we have recently released our second e.p., Akathena, on our own Sassy Boy label. We recorded it last year at Moontower Studios in Cambridge, MA. with Mike Quinn working the board. We had such a great time there we hope to go back in the spring.
