In The Studio and On The StageHey, hey, hey! Some good news from Numbers land. We'll be hitting the studio this weekend with our trusty producer-to-the-stars, Andy Freeman, to record three new tunes: "1-2-3-4-5," "Godzilla Girl," and "Weight of the Sun." We're really psyched to put down some new tracks, and we're hoping to have a new album together by the end of the year. In the meantime, you can hear these new numbers live next week at The Hotel Utah. Yep, we'll be back on Thursday, February 2nd and we're on first at 9pm. Come on out for some brand new power pop goodness!
Say Hello to Lindo @ Eli’s Mile High Club, December 15Happy Holidays and what-have-you! To celebrate the season and round out 2011, we've booked a show. Yep, we actually have some big news to celebrate: the addition of a new Number, our good friend and yours, Mr. Professional himself, Chuck Lindo!
Oh yes. We're delighted to have Chuck holding down the low notes and hitting some high harmonies. Things are sounding tight, and we can't want to play for you. So join us next Thursday at the famous Eli's Mile High Club in Oakland. Keep in mind that we won't be playing any holiday numbers, but plenty of San Francisco's finest power pop will be on tap and flowing freely.
- International Pop Overthrow shows in Los Angeles & SF
It's been a sleepy summer so far, but we've added a few shows to the calendar for August. We'll be playing two showcases for International Pop Overthrow, a roving pop music festival that's been making the rounds for 13 years. The best part? Our first show in Los Angeles! We'll be in LA on Sunday, August 13th at Fais Do Do and back in San Francisco on Thursday, August 18th. Let's get ready to rumble!
CALLING ALL BIKES! We need your help to shoot a videoIf you ride your bicycle in San Francisco, you probably know The Wiggle. And if you know The Wiggle, you LOVE The Wiggle. That's just how it is.
Because of our love for San Francisco's best bike route, we've written a theme song for The Wiggle. This catchy little number is crying out for video, so that's exactly what we are going to do.
But we need your help.
Join the party on Sunday May 22, 2:00pm at Duboce Park (corner of Duboce and Steiner) to film a video for The Wiggle! We’ll start by filming a group shot at Duboce Park, then we’ll turn to the streets to capture what it's like to ride The Wiggle with all of your closest friends.- The Real Numbers @ Hotel Utah Saloon, May 21
We’ve joined forces with a super solid bill: San Francisco indie rockers Genius and the Thieves and Southern California’s Wires in the Walls and Moostache at the Hotel Utah Saloon! This promises to be a fun show, with free music and merch giveaways and lots of other surprises.
