Guilt By Association Listening Parties

I've shamelessly mentioned the Guilt By Association album before.

Less than one month until Guilt By Association hits record stores and we here at Engine Room could not be more excited. With 17 launch parties scheduled across the country, we hope you all come out and join us to hear the album in its entirety. We've also stocked the parties full of guilty pleasures--drink specials, live performances, pop culture trivia, prizes, and more! Here's the newest list of when and where you can get in on the action...Oh and be sure to scroll down for a relevant, and totally excellent, message brought to you by the men of Family Guy...

One of the bigger projects I'm working on right now is a compilation album called Guilt By Association which has some of my favorite indie artists covering their favorite guilty pleasure pop songs. We just started a video contest for three of the songs and I designed a little poster situation for it. See below and click here to see it in full size.


The project will be released in August through Engine Room Recordings and to listen to the songs see above or go to the GbA MySpace Page.
