Our friends... Tricycle Records

Greetings from Tricycle Records, After a long rest after SXSW and the great success of The Bay Area Takeover, we are gearing up for a rock filled summer. With the addition of two great new bands and a few new releases in the works, plan on seeing a lot of Tricycle Records in the next few months. May is the month to rock! May 10th, 11th and 12thThe Blacks hit NYC with a residency at Pianos and the debut of The Tambourine Experiment: three consecutive nights, one hundred tambourines, and one mess of a dance-pit. Recorded live and on video. May 14th The Blacks cross the bridge to Brooklyn to Union Pool for a show with UK band, The Heavy. May 17th The Frail is playing Pop Roxx at DNA with Mario Muse (Lacquer), BaconMonkey (Meat), Six (Club Bender) and my favorite Popscene boys Aaron and Omar. Hosted by Michael Sparkle. Admission is free with RSVP Email The Frail for guest listing at: thefrailsf@gmail.com May 23rd The Blacks bring the Tambourine Experiment to San Francisco with Von Iva at Bottom of the Hill.
