News-ish
VLB was once again nominated for "Best Cover/Tribute Band" in the FW Weekly Music Awards and though we didn't take home the hardware, we are honored to have been in such good company and to have been nominated for a 12th straight year. Thanks to all who voted and have supported us for so long!
We'll keep a regular schedule through July but August will only feature two appearances as our other projects will be traveling a great deal. That being said, our first show back will be a big one. September 4th and 5th we will be holding the VLB 17 year Anniversary Party at Bronco's in Hurst! I'll post more details soon, but mark your calendars as this is a party you won't want to miss.
"What happened to Thursdays?"
While Thursday nights at Broncos were a cornerstone of Velvet Love Box for 16 years, we decided to bring our house gig to a close. With our increasing activities in side projects, as well as other current and future commitments, holding down a weekly show isn't as feasible as it once was. Thanks to all who came out for our final Thursday last August, it was a great time and a fitting end to the tradition. We cannot thank Ron & Michelle Faurot and the Bronco's staff over the years nearly enough. We still frequent our home bar on some weekend nights, so be sure to check the schedule page for upcoming dates and we hope to see you soon!
Other projects
We have a few off' days marked on the calendar as we are making some time for side projects we've had brewing. Scot has been busy recording with various artists while Brandon and I have been working with guitar-pop artist Lannie Flowers.
