The Information: Saturday 5/19 at the Middle East Downstairs
Hey Everybody!
Here's a quick note to let you know we are headlining the Middle East Downstairs this Saturday, May 19th. We're playing with some great bands so call that girl/guy you have been too chicken to for fear of a harsh rejection and come down to the show. We guarantee that they will say yes and that you will get lucky. For hard and for serious.
Our new EP Natural Language will be for sale on USB Flash Drives and on 8-Track tape (ok, so the 8-tracks just have a code on them for an online download) as we attempt to promote the downfall of all labels in emerging era of on-demand publishing and direct-to-dome media transfers. Yeah.
The EP will be available on ITunes in a few short weeks thanks to the slowest upload process we have ever experienced by a leader in digital technology. I guess Loading a database of 5 songs really should take 6-8 weeks. Awesome!
Also a quick thanks to WFNX and Paul Driscoll for playing "Alchemy in the Age of Science" fairly regularly. We love you too.
We've had a long week of work and life and are ready to bring it full force so we hope to see you there so you can have it...um...brought...to you.

CHARITY: Boston Institute for Arts Therapy
Boston Institute for Arts Therapy The Arts Therapy Department at Whittier (formerly the Boston Institute for Arts Therapy) is dedicated to using the creative arts to facilitate growth, learning, healing and hope. We provide educational and therapeutic programs to over 2,500 children and families throughout Eastern Massachusetts who are challenged emotionally, physically and developmentally. How the Boston Institute for Arts Therapy Came to Be In 1981, Ricky Stern was a newly-degreed music therapist. She had a vision of bringing what she believed were effective healing arts therapies to audiences who couldn't afford it: shelters, inner-city housing projects, schools and day-care centers, day-treatment programs for drug users, prevention programs for at-risk children and teens. With a small loan from her parents, she began writing grant proposals, seeking small, targeted grants from Massachusetts foundations and succeeded in founding the Institute. The center, then called the Center for Creative Arts Therapies (CCAT), began collaborating with schools, after school centers, hospitals and shelters throughout Boston and eastern MA. The goals were to gain exposure for the effectiveness of creative arts therapies, to introduce these services in numerous locations and to get various centers to contract for CCAT's services. As more centers learned about creative arts therapy and its effectiveness with the people they served, demand for CCAT's services grew. The organization was renamed to Boston Institute for Arts Therapy in 1994. In July 2006 the Institute merged with Whittier Street Health Center and created the new Arts Therapy Department at Whittier. In an effort to continue investing in our future, we will continue to deliver on the mission and goals that we have been dedicated to since our founding in 1982. Today there are over 10 art, music, dance, drama and integrative expressive arts therapists and educators on staff at Whittier providing invaluable arts services to over 2,000 adults, children and families at over 30 various locations throughout Eastern Massachusetts
