I. Mastema
returns to the Vans Warped Tour
This summer marks the third year in a row
that we have been fortunate enough to play on the Warped Tour, and
with bands like Bad Religion and Pennywise on the bill, it looks to be the
best year yet. We will be performing on the Hot Topic Kevin Says Stage
for the Bay Area date tomorrow and when we hit the road the following week:
July 1 (Sun): Mountain View, CA - Shoreline Amphitheatre
July 11 (Wed): Phoenix, AZ - Cricket Pavilion
July 12 (Thu): Las Cruces, NM - N.M.S.U. Practice Field
Check out www.warpedtour.com and www.kevinsaysstage.com for more
details. Hope to see you there!
II. “Requiem For My
Liver” wins 1st place in songwriting contest
We just received news that our drinking
song won first place in the Indie Artist
Alliance’s national Songwriter & Storyteller contest! Part of the
prize is that our song will be featured on the contest compilation CD, which
we were told will ship next week… more info on this to come. You can listen
to “Requiem For My Liver” on our MySpace page at www.myspace.com/mastema, on the
Warped Tour D.I.Y. Stage compilation, and on our forthcoming CD...
III. Mastema
currently in the studio, completing new album
We are in the process of finishing up our
new self-titled full-length record with our buddy Josh Garcia at
legendary Hyde Street Studios in San Francisco. We have a bunch of new songs on the
album as well as some favorites from our live shows, and we are really
excited about how it is sounding so far! The CD will also include our
upcoming music video for "Requiem For My Liver," shot by Empyrean
Media and Rosalyn Lee. The record will be released in late fall on
our label, Song of the Phoenix Records, and will be available on iTunes, Interpunk.com, and select retail stores.

college radio campaign with Planetary Group for Entropy,
