2024 Summer Tour, Tales from the Road
Jared here: I just wanted to say thank you to everyone for writing to us after we posted about our experience in Keystone. You really brought us around. Me especially. On the road, our entire sense of home needs to be redefined. Our house becomes the truck, a rest stop, a friend’s guest bed, couch,...
2024 Summer Tour, Tales from the Road
Jared here: I like to keep active, and that usually takes the form of my regular workouts. I use an app on my phone, kinda like a Netflix for workout programs. I like to do about four times a week. On tour, however, it mostly consists of sneaking in a few exercises whenever I have...
2018 Smile Tour
Nashville: Both Jared and I worked on this one. Maybe you’ll be able to tell who’s voice is who’s…but maybe not. There are times you drink for fun. There are times you drink to mourn. There are times you drink alone. There are times you drink to celebrate. Then, there are times…times when you’ve just...
Backstage Pass, Songwriting
We seldom listen to our own CD’s. We get our fill of the music playing it live night after night, and quite enjoy it. However, every now and then a song pops up on the iTunes shuffle, or we pop in a CD and we get the chance to listen to the songs as we...
General Musings
It’s been awhile since we’ve blogged about anything. Not for lack of activity, though. Since our last post, we’ve settled into our new home in Tacoma, gotten pregnant, signed with Maurice the Fish Records, played a number of awesome shows, and watched the entire series of “Lost” in what we’re sure must be a pathetically...
General Musings, Tales from the Road
This past weekend, we played two relatively unattended shows at the Conway Muse in Conway, WA, and The Comet Tavern in Seattle, and had a great time anyway. The crowds were relatively small, but we’ve found that sometimes, that gives us more opportunity to really connect on a more individual level, and we use that...
The Everyday Life of Champagne Sunday
Normally, we’re not big fans of karaoke. But when it’s offered in the back of a cab, and we’ve had enough to drink, why the hell not? (Video by Mariannebrown)
The Everyday Life of Champagne Sunday
Here are my teams, and here’s why: Buffalo Bills – I grew up only an hour and a half from Buffalo. They were the hometown team, and damn near everyone I knew, down to my elementary school bus driver, Craig, was a Bills fan. Most importantly, my parents have always been huge fans. I was...
Backstage Pass
Only a select few of you may be aware of this story, but it marks a significantly strange point in the life of Champagne Sunday. At the time, we were cautious of sharing potentially good news (wisely so, as it turns out) for fear that it would be a lot of build up to nothing....
Backstage Pass
Well, the results are in, and we received an overwhelming and unanimous “no” from our fans and readers on the topic of whether or not we should market ourselves as “country”. Also, everyone that responded was kind enough to also supply reasons to support their decisions, which we very much appreciate. So now we’re left...
