The Chevy Court line up and bookings continue to be the epitome of creativity. It was announced today that Ithaca-based X Ambassadors will play the NYS Fair on Sept 3. The band, including lead man Sam Harris (right) performed last year at Syracuse University. The group will play the Delaware State Fair next month.
Gustav Hoffman (bass) took the beat down a notch during the CD release party for Slow Train at Empire Brewing Company last night. In the background is Byron Cage on drums (and Ustream controls).
We don’t know where the after party was for Syracuse Fashion Week last night,but maybe it should have been held at the Empire Brewing Company. We followed the sound of music in Armory Square, and it lead us to the Slow Train CD release show.
A packed house included guest musicians and some familiar faces. We look forward to seeing them again soon. Slow Train will travel to Rochester for their next show.
Thanks to Byron Cage for the invite.

Ioanna Gika lets her Kimono hang out during her performance in the Schine Underground last night.
Fresh off a performance at the South by Southwest Festival (SXSW), the LA-based Gothic meets Grunge band, Io Echo played a short set for students at Syracuse University last night. The show was filled with pulsating rhythms and a rapid-fire projection/light show. Io Echo opened for Juke Box the Ghost.
