Disco Biscuits Announce Bisco Inferno 2013

Today, jamtronica quartet The Disco Biscuits announced their return to colorful Colorado. This winter, for what they are dubbing "Bisco Inferno - Winter Edition," tDB will take over three different venues in three different cities from January 24 - 26. Kicking things off in Boulder on Thursday, January 24 the boys will take the stage at the Boulder Theater. The following evening, they head to Denver for a play at the Ogden Theatre, and cap off the run with a heater at the 1st Bank Center in Broomfield. 

With the first two nights providing intimate shows in smaller capacity venues and the third night looking to be a massive party with up and coming saxophonist-producer GRiZ and soul-tronica producer Michal Menert, residents of Colorowdy are in for a treat. 

Pre-sale tickets go on sale this Thursday, November 8  at noon MT via Ticketfly, with general onsale occuring on Saturday, November 10. Head over to the Disco Biscuits official website for full event and ticketing information. 

12.21.12 "Beginning of the World Party" Announced Featuring Nadis Warriors, Blockhead, DrFameus

Today, Re:Evolution Media, the event production outlet behind "The Manifestation Celebration," announced its lineup and ticketing information for an event they are referring to as, "The Beginning of the World Party."

[Check out Headstash's coverage of the 2012 Manifestation Celebration from the Dallas Museum of Nature and Science]

Set to take place on Friday, December 21, 2012 at The Parish in Austin, TX, the celebration will feature music from The Nadis Warriors featuring Allen Aucoin of the Disco Biscuits on drums, trip-hop producer Blockhead, and Aucoin's solo project, DrFameus.

Numerous live painters, spoken word poetry, energy healing and live floral arrangements will round out the evening, inviting the conscious community to come together and celebrate the end of the old era and the beginning of a new time in human history. 

December 21st, 2012 marks the end of the Long Count Mayan calendar, a day surrounded in duality. Some say it marks the end of the world and the coming Apocalypse; others take a different view, heralding it as the dawning of something to look forward to. Regardless of your belief surrounding this date, one thing is for certain: Austin, Texas will be hosting one hell of a party. 

Tickets and full event details are available via the official website, with tickets going for the super heady price of $21.12. For those lucky enough to be attending Mayan Holidaze, this party is the perfect way to cap off the weekend, and it's just right over the border.

DrFameus Announces Extensive Fall Tour, Releases Free Track

Coming off a strong summer that included plays at Camp Bisco and Electric Forest and will be completed in style with a set at the inaugural CounterPoint Music Festival, DrFameus (Allen Aucoin of the Disco Biscuits) will embark on his 2012 fall tour beginning on October 4th. The tour commences with a late night with drum and bass legend, LTJ Bukem in Baltimore and will take the good doctor through over 20 cities including stops in Colorado, Florida, and the Deep South with a Birmingham play on Halloween with Archnemesis.

The tour will continue through November and conclude before the holidays with a three night Northeast run with stops in Burlington, Boston and Brooklyn. The tour coincides with the release of DrFameus’ most recent single, “Roller Parked” which also features Allen’s good friend, Aaron Goldberg, and is available for free via DrFameus' Soundcloud page. 

DrFameus is an electronic music project created by the versatile drummer, Allen Aucoin.  Allen explores many realms with DrFameus ranging from breakbeats to drum 'n' bass to dubstep to techno/house.  It is his ability to survey the crowd and then improvise that has allowed Aucoin to play in such diverse projects over the years.

The Disco Biscuits Announce "City Bisco" in Philadelphia This October

Earlier today, Marc Brownstein and Aron Magner of The Disco Biscuits and Conspirator let their Facebook fans in on a little secret: that a huge announcement would be coming soon.

Well it only took a few hours for them to divulge that this October 5 and 6, The Disco Biscuits will be headlining their own two-day festival in (where else) their hometown of Philadelphia, PA known as City Bisco.

Rumors of an event with this name have floated around The Biscuits' community for years and this announcement couldn't have come at a better time. With only two other dates scheduled this year (Camp Bisco and Mayan Holidaze), The Disco Biscuits fanbase surely feels like a collective little kid on Christmas today.

[READ our News Nugs on Mayan Holidaze and Camp Bisco for more information on these events.]

City Bisco will take place at Philadelphia's The Mann Center and a full lineup and details will be announced soon.

The Disco Biscuits' official website also says, "In addition to the four screaming Biscuits sets, you can expect a healthy dose of the best bands and DJs from around the world."

Souce: The Disco Biscuits

Conspirator Announces Live Album Release

Fans of the Conspirator will be dipping their hands into their wookie jars early this year thanks to the release of their "Unlocked: Live from Georgia Theatre" live album set to be released on April 10.

The announcement came today that the band would be releasing a compact disc and digital version of their October 6, 2011 performance at the famed venue before they make a return performance.
 
If the energy of being billed with Ghostland Observatory was not enough to make this a noteworthy performance, then the addition of Lotus' Mike Greenfield should make this a key purchase for diehard fans of the Disco Biscuits' Marc Brownstein and Aron Magner's side-project turned main-project.

Considering the timing of the release and the promise for "all kinds of musical surprises" throughout their run of two-set shows this spring, with the April 20th performance at the Georgia Theatre being the first of four, it can assumed that big things are in store from the Bisco boys. Check out a complete list of tour dates via our latest News Nug.
