A Very Good Year.

This year was the best ever for The Bleachers.  We released our second full-length album, 'Conjure,' played the most shows ever to date and found our way onto the cover of Las Vegas Citylife.  

We've picked up more fans from around the world; Germany, Japan, the UK, to name a few.  Our music is available on  and also in compact disc form straight from our own website.

We wish to thank our families and those who listen to our music for allowing us to continue making records and performing live, which is something we dreamed about years ago and is a reality for us now.

The Bleachers: The Best Band of 2008.

In this week's issue of Las Vegas Citylife, there is an article entitled 'Survival of the Fittest.'  The article's angle is to highlight a number of bands in Las Vegas who are thriving, while the music industry on a national level, is crumbling.

Each band mentioned could only be encapsulated with a mere paragraph (or this article could have been quite long and tedious, obviously), but what a paragraph it was when it came time to write about The Bleachers.

The Bleachers are "The Best Band of 2008 if there were such a category," writer Mike Prevatt proclaims, among other astute observations which can be read in their entirety if you click here.

Thank You For Braving The Tough Conditions...

Additionally, we wish to thank each and every one of you who survived the weather as well, last Wednesday night at the Beauty Bar.  It was an extremely vicious evening of frostiness, the likes of which we have not seen in quite some time.

All of our equipment was near frozen as we began to play and just as we warmed up, it was time to go.  We were able to present ten songs to you, as the curtain hit the cast on 2008, though:

01. When You Lose

02. History

03. Wasteland

04. Untitled Song #1

05. Apparition

06. Build An Army

07. Duende

08. Infatuation

09. Untitled Song #2

10. New Dub

Stay safe for the holidays and we will see you all again next year.

The Bleachers at Beauty Bar, 12/10/08, 10pm.

This Wednesday night, at 10pm, The Bleachers will perform live at Beauty Bar on Fremont St. in downtown Las Vegas.

We are opening for Ours, who are on tour with Plain Jane Automobile.  This is our first time back at Beauty Bar since 'Suspicion' and we are really looking forward to the show.

A few items of note: Ladies, our Wednesday night show at Beauty Bar also happens to coincide with their Ladies drink free until 11pm promotion, so make sure you arrive early and take advantage of getting some good liquor at a good price -- free.

Also, with it being so late in the year, this upcoming Wednesday night show will likely be our last of the year, as well as our last show for the immediate future: our interests lie in bringing everyone a brand-new, full-length album for 2009 and if we are to follow through on our intent, we must begin recording soon.  So, aside from the random show opportunity here or there that cannot be passed up, we probably won't play much until the spring of 2009.  But the payoff will be a new album.  

Las Vegas Weekly are thankful for The Bleachers.

In the current week's issue of The Las Vegas Weekly, the feature story was "50 things you'd better be thankful for!"

Upon perusal of the feature, number 36 on the list read, "Comforting Certainties: The R-J will stake out op-ed positions delightfully irrelevant to life in Las Vegas; local band The Bleachers will make terrific music; Oscar (Goodman, Las Vegas mayor) will be Oscar."

It seemed very odd to be grouped with politics, but really, the point is we were mentioned and we'll take it!  It should be noted, there were no other local-based bands mentioned in the list, which made us feel quite exclusive, to say the least.

Thank you, Las Vegas Weekly.  Happy Thanksgiving to you.
