Sneaking A Breadpig Shoutout Into A Totally Unrelated Mental Floss Interview
Posted by admin on
I had the opportunity to do an interview with David of Mental Floss last week and used the opportunity to shamelessly plug breadpig. The traffic bump we've seen as a result verifies the indefatigable appeal of our breaded swine hero. If only this interview had been in person, as hearing someone say "breadpig" for the first time is akin to watching your first child being born -- or so I've been told. There's less trauma, but even more wonderment and awe. Read the interview and buy a bunch of their clever shirts. Then stop by breadpig tees and buy some...
Guy Hacks His Guitar Hero Guitar To Play Through His Computer -- Breadpig Remains Unplugged
Posted by admin on
Maybe it's tradition. Maybe it's our commitment to keeping the music authentic. Whatever it is, we're never going to abandon acoustic like Bob Dylan and these sellouts. They're called the Guitar Zeros and maybe we can still find room on our tour for them to open...
About To Top 60K YouTube Views And Storming San Francisco
Posted by admin on
We've very quietly been adding up the views on our first breadpig video (live in DC) and selling a hearty dose of merch in the process. Now we're going to take this momentum and perform our first show out west. We're going to be playing live at Fisherman's Wharf in San Francisco this Saturday, April 5th at 3pm. We should have a live-feed up at Justin.tv if you can't make it, but if you're in the Bay Area, you really have absolutely no excuse. When you show up, just look for the crowd of awestruck tourists rocking out like it's...
More Breadpig Buzz Blooms In The Week Leading Up To Our SF Show
Posted by admin on
We're taking our show to San Francisco this weekend April 5/6th. Although we haven't nailed down a day and time, it'll be an afternoon show at Pier 39. These last few weeks have been incredible for the band. None of us expected all this attention to come so quickly, let alone so strongly. Riding on the vapor trail of the soaring breadpig, here's some love from a recent Podbop review. Be sure to bookmark breadpig's artist page on HypeMachine, a lot of people say you're not truly an artist until you're on HypeMachine. We think HypeMachine wasn't truly a music...
Bonus Footage From D.C. - Our Front Man’s American Idol Audition Tape
Posted by admin on
Our surprise front man got more feedback and fanmail than any of us. But that's cool. We're not jealous. In fact, I've compiled the highlights of his performance that didn't make beadpig's first live video. I think you'll find them both compelling and inspiring, with a touch of endearing. I'm not sure how we'll be able to inform him once he gets accepted for the next season of Idol, but he'll probably already know from all the press attention. This is most certainly not an April Fool's joke. Paula is going to love him! Stay tuned for more updates when...
