Matt Wertz to tour in support of new album
Nashville-based musician Matt Wertz will be in California to celebrate the release of his new album, Heatwave, at Bootleg Theater in LA on September 12th and The Observatory in Santa Ana on the 13th.
Matt's forthcoming release, Heatwave, captures an era in music inspired by the rock heroes of the 80s; Kenny Loggins, Richard Marx, Don Henley, Bryan Adams, etc. Matt has set out to pay homage to the musicians he grew up listening to by creating Heatwave, a collection of songs boasting crisp drum beats and jangly guitar solos, along with the characteristically smooth vocals that fans have come to expect of Wertz. Originally from Liberty, MO, Matt has spent the past 12 years pursuing his music career in Nashville, TN. After having released several albums on major labels including Universal Republic and Nettwerk Records, Matt is now independently releasing Heatwave on his own label, Handwritten Records. Keeping with the 80s influence Heatwave will be released as a limited cassette run with a hand thrifted Walkman players signed by Matt! The album, which is set for an August 27th release, will also be available on vinyl, CD, and at all digital retailers.

The performance will be in Beckman Institute Auditorium on the Caltech campus, at 400 South Wilson Avenue in Pasadena.
Evie Ladin grew up on the East Coast and has immersed herself in American roots music, African and American folk dance, and other cultural arts. After gaining national attention with the group, Stairwell Sisters, her second solo recording, The Evie Ladin Band, from 2012 was nominated as AMERICANA ALBUM OF THE YEAR by the Independent Music Awards. She is highly spirited and will surely get our room full of people moving, and her performances with Keith Terry are lots of fun and very visual. Triple Chicken Foot as opening act is much more than icing on the cake. Featuring Ben Guzmán on fiddle/mandolin, Mike Heinle on banjo and Kelly Marie Martin on guitar, this amazing old time trio has grabbed lots of attention performing in Southern California.
Beckman Institute is located at 400 South Wilson Avenue in Pasadena. Free parking is available in Beckman Auditorium’s parking lots, at the south end of Michigan Avenue, just south of Del Mar Boulevard.

Will Yip to release compilation album
Multi-genre producer and engineer WILL YIP will be releasing Off The Board: A Studio 4 Family Compilation featuring un-released songs from a slew of bands including Title Fight, Circa Survive, and Man Overboard on October 8, 2013. “This comp represents everything that I’ve done in the past ten years of my life,” explains Yip. Proceeds are being used for a down payment toward his partnership in the legendary Studio 4 located in Conshohocken, PA. “I want to give the punk, hardcore, and alternative community of awesome bands a home,” he adds.
Unlike any other compilation, Off The Board: A Studio 4 Family Compilation was recorded, mixed, and mastered at the same studio by one person - Will Yip which gives it the feel of an album due to the consistency of the mixing, mastering, and studio gear. Also, most of the songs were specifically written for this project. It includes un-released songs and B-sides by Title Fight, Circa Survive, Polar Bear Club, None More Black,Balance And Composure, Man Overboard, Tigers Jaw, Daylight, Pity Sex, Anthony Green, Citizen,Dead End Path, Sainthood Reps, Turnover, Lightyears, Mongoloids, and Koji.
The album is being released on limited edition colored vinyl (500 red / 500 green), black vinyl (2,000), and CD. In addition, it’ll be available worldwide digitally. Additional pre-order items include vinyl test presses, exclusive t-shirts, signed and numbered prints of the album art by Circa Survive guitarist Colin Frangicetto, autographed drum sticks/heads that were used in sessions, and one of a kind interactive experiences such as bowling with Will Yip and Circa Survive, group studio tour, be a fly on the wall during a session, and an all-day recording clinic. In addition, fans will be able to purchase tickets for the inaugural Studio 4 Sessions featuring Anthony Green with special guests Tigers Jaw on September 20 and 21. Different from other intimate stripped-down sessions, it will be fully interactive with Q&A throughout the entire show. Most of all, everyone in attendance will receive a copy of the session on CD .
