Lafcadio

Hey Folks,

somewhere between school and life we dropped off the web again. Here are a few tidbits from Lafcadio in the news, and info on upcoming shows!

On the January 30th release show, from the DTH:

This show was (as most are) incredibly fun, and PACKED! Thanks to everyone who came out, and our apologies to all who stood in line, especially if you didn’t make it in.

There was also a slightly ridiculous article in UNC’s Blue & White’s February issue. Download it if you dare.

In other news, keep you eyes peeled for show dates at this spring’s Shakori Hills grassroots festival! We are ecstatic to be performing at our favorite festival with a boatload of fantastic acts.

We’re also performing acoustic at the Southeast Youth Food Activist Summit’s community dinner this Saturday. It will be held in The Hargraves Center at 216 N. Roberson St. on Saturday, February 14th from 6:00 – 9pm. A $2 donation is suggested, and the meal will feature sustainable ingredients from Hickory Nut Gap Farm (among others), prepared by the lovely Vimala of indian-food fame. Over 50 guests are expected, so RSVP “community dinner” to youthfoodactivist@gmail.com, or call 704.998.9672.

Also, Betsy did it again! The lovely lady herself came out to our release show and recorded the goings-on for all to see. Many thanks to Betsy for her presence, support, and encouragement!

Hello beautiful ones, 

I’m sure you’ve been wondering when our next show is. It’s tomorrow night! We will be playing at Jack Sprat with Lake Inferior, joined by Vinyl Records folks galore and hopefully yourselves. The show starts at 9, but we should be coming on stage around 10:30.

$5 minimum donation

All proceeds will benefit C.A.S.A., a community-based healthcare NGO that ensures fetal health in rural Mexico.

In other news, a big thanks to the wonderful Betsy Harris, fairy godmother of the Chapel Hill (and Carrboro) music scene. She not only graced us with her presence at the 506 last Wednesday, but also took video (!) and uploaded it to Youtube! Here is a link to her Youtube page, where you can find tons of great videos of local music:

again, a big thanks to everyone who came out to last week’s shows, and to Betsy!

What’s up, buttercups! Catch Lafcadio playing three tunes (two of which have not yet been recorded) on LateNight STV Wednesday at 11 pm. That’s channel 4–check it out at  http://www.uncstv.org/.

If you miss it, look out to see the footage posted in the next week!
