The Sunset Series, featuring regional/national acts weekly in Owensboro, KY, had reached a place where the city had considered pulling the plug. "If you guys don't have atleast 1500 people at the show (there were less than 200 people the previous week), the city will have to cancel the Sunset Series for good" (Heath Eric - director).
Well, nothing to fear! Thanks to the awesome AC-heads in Kentucky, August Christopher brought over 2000 people alone and had a memorable three-man 3 hour all-original show that TORE THE HOUSE DOWN! The Sunset Series lives on!
AC Welcomes Newest Members
Good looking, fun, energetic, sexy, well- dressed, gift for gab - IF ONLY HE COULD PLAY BASS!
Either way, AC has picked him and you're stuck with him. "Ladies and gentlemen, introducing in the right corner, weighing in at 165 pounds...
...STEVE PRICE!"
AND...
on the drums, from the Nashville based bands "Former" and "Admiral's Club".
Criss, being one of the only acts to have performed at the marathon every year it's existed, performed at the 4th stage (17th Ave and Chet Atkins) April 26. "It's absolutely AMAZING to see 25,000 runners all at one time. It's a beautiful sea of people and is breathtaking!"
In an effort to promote the marathon, the Nashville Sports Council and New Balance have teamed up and created a compilation CD. AC songs STAR and INSIDE HER HEAD have been chosen for the compilation, which should be out very soon. We will keep you posted as more information unfolds.
The band was originally scheduled to play in Kansas City on May 17 for the Crawl For Cancer benefit. We switched venues to Dallas, TX but are now scheduled ONCE AGAIN in Kansas City!!! The Crawl for Cancer is always a great time and it's good to give back to a great cause. AC will be headlining on the main stage outside the Beaumont Club on October 11.
Peyton Turner from Rock of Love 2 Debut a Success!
That's right, star of the biggest reality TV show last year "Rock of Love" (featuring Bret Michaels of 'Poison'), Peyton Turner, has teamed with August Christopher and the group's first show was a huge success! "Peyton was fun and ROCKED! It was awesome to play with her. AC heads are going to really enjoy watching her" (Criss). Peyton performs original songs from her upcoming record with the band. Look for many AC/Peyton Turner shows this year, including Woody's this Saturday and "Rocking The Runway" w/Loverboy in September!
Thanks to all the AC-heads that made it to the Rehab show, who showed in FULL FORCE! We felt a wall of fans at the gig and had a great time hanging with the national act. Check our myspace page for comments and growing new fans!
"CC's Virtual Sound Circus" EPK is Now Online!
After almost 2 years of work, "CC's Virtual Sound Circus" has officially launched! The premiere public show took place at the Wildhorse Saloon in Nashville and was a BLAST! Everyone in the audience commented on how unique and interesting the show was. Pics and more dates will be up soon. We are meeting with the Wildhorse again soon to discuss a regular rotation!
Criss Plays Drums for Queen City Romance, Breaks 2 Snare Drums in 6 Songs!
At the 2008 BBQ Fest, AC headlined with Queen City Romance opening. Many people were surprised to see Criss playing drums for the band, but the truth is he's done several shows with QCR and is even featured in the band's upcoming video "Security Checkpoint"
Be sure and look for the new video from a great, new original rock band. Luckily, several bands performed that night, including "Kaptain Crunch" and "The Anythings", so when Criss blew through 2 different snare drums during the 45-minute performance, more drums were around to finish the set!!!
