DIO FEST

Hey errybody, it’s been a while!! I hope everyone’s March is splendid. Here’s a video of On the Spot Trio playing a tune… as a taste of what will be in store at the Do-it-Ourselves Festival put on by North Pacific Company (mudthroat alumni North Pacific String Band: http://northpacificstringband.com/). 3 day camping in the beautiful santa cruz mountains, april 26-28, super reasonably priced and amazing line up. check it out: http://diofest.com/

cheers all around!

What an exciting past few weeks it has been for us to finish our newest issue and share it with all of our contributors. We drove down to Santa Cruz on Friday the 18th, for the event at the museum downtown – not only did we get to catch up with friends old and new, but it was a night full of sharing all the work we have put into mudthroat since the beginning with the public, sharing our philosophy, our inspiration, and ever-widening our community! We then headed back up to Berkeley for our release party the next night – and the turn out was incredible! We want to thank Josh Sorkin for providing entertainment throughout the night, as well as all the performers: Seek the Freek (+ Jennae for the spectacular live painting), Robert Marshall, Katie Wheeler-Dubin, Ian Schimmelfennig, Barbara Nerness, Ross Warren, Thrishi, Half Wolf, Fell to Low, and Babewave. We were also delighted that Tiny Splendor was able to come and sell prints and take part in the celebration! Many thanks to the Foundry for the space – and don’t forget to check out their next event on February 23rd! (more info soon)
