SHOW: Norm's Beer and Brats, Superior, WI - Roller Dames After Party - May 23rd

Join us once again for more hot Roller Dames action at Norm's Beer and Brats in Superior, WI on May the 23rd. Circa AM is also playing. It'll be nice to be the best band there that night. For them, I mean.

Things should kick off around 10pm. I'm pretty sure the show is free, so please make sure to throw some money at our feet. We will also have CDs there to exchange for money if you really want to be a jerk about it.

There will also be girls in skirts and stockings and roller skates who will happily kick your ass for looking at them too long. I suggest large mirrored sunglasses.

Homegrown 2009

We will be playing the Duluth Homegrown Music Festival on Friday, May 1st. We'll be at R.T. Quinlan's again, around 11pm. Here's what the show guide has to say about us:

"Straddling an unlikely boundary between metal and new-wave synth-pop, The Surfactants aren't quite like and band playing Homegrown. Verily, they are the most on time band in the festival, being that they play along with drummer Zac Bentz's pre-programed synths. This takes serious talent. Bassist Eric Anderson, guitarist Brett Molitor and singer Greg Cougar Conley have many years of experience between them, and they have honed it in to a finely tuned weapon of Devo-like sonic goodness that makes the military-industrial complex froth at the mouth in awe at what can happen when such skill is commanded so well."

Make sure to check out the entire schedule here. See you there!

Vote for The Surfactants at Who Is The One

Hi peoples.

Please take 5 seconds of you time and vote for The Surfactants over at Who Is The One.

What exactly is that all about? It's a chance for The Surfactants to be remixed be the super cool Japanese producer Shinichi Osawa. He's done a ton of great electro/dance stuff, and he's currently running a competition to win a remix by him. The top 10 songs voted on by fans will be looked over by Shinichi, and he will pick one to remix. The track will then be released by his label Southern Fried Records.

Of course this is all a long shot, but the payoff would be pretty amazing for us. All you have to do is go to the site, enter in an email address on the left side (notice we didn't say that it has to be your email address...they do not send a confirmation email), click on "Listen & Vote" on the top right, then find "The One, The Wayward" by The Surfactants in the list of songs. Right now it's on the first page, but that will certainly change over time, so you might have to scroll through a few pages. [UPDATE: Yes, we are now on page 4. Entry has closed, so we should stay on the 4th page.] Don't worry, it is there! Then, hit "10" in the pull-down menu next to the "Submit" button, then hit "submit." That's it!

Thanks for helping us out. Please make sure to tell everyone you know about it as well. We'll need the help.

Thanks!
