EP Club Newsletter: Vol 3

Hey y'all,

It's time for Volume 3 of the Wizard Rock EP of the Month Club Newsletter! Sorry it's been so long since the last update, but both Matt and I have been pretty busy with touring for most of the summer. But now we're both back at homebase and getting ready to send off the 3rd Awesome Mailing of EPs at the end of this month. For those already subscribed, you stand near your mailbox because you won't want this package to be sitting in there too long because this sh*t is HOT! New EPs headed your way from the Nifflers and Harry and the Potters as well as the debut from BIG WHOMPY!

In the last newsletter I promised to tell you a bit about the new Harry and the Potters EP, but that will have to wait until Vol. 4 because I'd rather talk about the Mudbloods. I had the pleasure of seeing them live for the first time at Terminus and they totally blew me away. When they performed during the live Pottercast, they had the room absolutely electrified - and this was all with a couple acoustic guitars and no mics! I hope some of you had a chance to see them on their tour this summer. And if you didn't, then I'm happy to tell you that you can still subscribe to the EP Club and get their incredible EP, "A War Amidst Pop Songs," which features the song, "I Wish You'd Be My Witch," - an absolutely necessary inclusion on any wizard rock love-mix tape.

There are still a handful of subscriptions left, so subscribe now!

I recently uploaded 3 news songs from the last batch of EPs. Check out our Myspace page to hear new stuff from the Hermione Crookshanks Experience, the Mudbloods, and Gred and Forge!

Now, I'll share the floor with the Nifflers and Big Whompy, who will both give you guys a preview of what to expect from their upcoming EPs.

=================================================================

From the Nifflers:

The Nifflers have never been more proud about music they have put out. We finished our EP back in early June with the help of our amazing dear friend Christian from Oliver Boyd and the Remembralls and we have created something that, we think, is sure to surprize you for music a smaller band put out. We have put a really good amount of our most favourite songs we have ever made on this EP and we hope that it will get you clapping along. We are proud, and honored that the Nifflers music is coming out with two of the most awesome bands in Wizard Rock. We just want to thank Big Whompy for choosing us and Uncle Carl for all his love.

And now Justin Finch-Fletchley drops some knowledge:

Hey everyone!

I’m writing to remind you all that if you haven’t subscribed yet the 2008 Wizard Rock EP of the Month Club you better hurry up! The next mailings are at the end of September and if you’re a subscriber you’re going to get EP’s by HARRY AND THE POTTERS, THE NIFFLERS, and BIG WHOMPY. I’m pretty excited about this mailing because this is the first triplet set that I’ve heard prior to the mailing and all three of these EP’s are fantastic! Have you ever heard Big Whompy drop some free-styling gangsta wizard rap before? The Nifflers totally niffle it up and the Potters bring it back to their “roots”….and then back again!!!

Oh, wait, there’s more!

If you’re going to be a new subscriber you’re also going to receive the other EP’s that have already been released for 2008.

-You’ll get Gred and Forge’s prankstatic EP “What Witches Want” and if you’re a witch or a wizard why would you not want more Gred and Forge in your play list?
-You’re going to get the Hermione Crookshanks Experience’s EP “Penelope” so you can hear how lovely Kristine’s voice and music sounds in EP format.
-You’re going to get Catchlove’s EP “Wake Up Harry”. It’s your chance to toast with your friends to the great Albus Dumbledore!
-You’re going to get the Gryffindor Common Room Rejects EP “Still Recruiting”. Shawn and Amber are the funniest and coolest girls I know south of Orlando and so is their EP.
-You’re going to get my EP “Hufflepizza” and it’s full of studio recordings of most of the songs I played to you on this summer’s tour!
-And you’re going to receive the highly acclaimed EP from the Mudbloods “A War Amidst Pop Songs.” This EP is beautiful and is full of love and war and fun.

Okay. Go subscribe. www.wizardrockclub.com. Proceeds from the EP Club benefit First Book and the Harry Potter Alliance. That means that as a subscriber you’re going to help give children the opportunity to read their first books and also help fight the Dark Arts in the real world.

Take care and thank you,

JFF
