Pancho Villa's Skull

Today, I'd like to share a little about the opening band playing with us on Thursday, 9 March at the Blind Pig. Pancho Villa's Skull is a pair of brothers who blend their commentary on immigration and other political issues with raw, energetic punk, and tempered with the sound of traditional mariachi music, drawing from their family's musical history.

You can read more about Pancho Villa's Skull in this Detroit News article from Wednesday, 4 January 2017.

Doors open at 9:30 the night of the show, and Pancho Villa's Skull will start promptly at 10pm.

Final Band Added to the Pig Show

We have glad tidings for you this fine afternoon. We are pleased to announce that Detroit-based mariachi punk band, Pancho Villa's Skull will be joining us on Thursday, 9 March. They play a fiery brand of protest punk with the bright sound of mariachi music lending color to their grittiness. They will be playing first at 10pm sharp, and they are not to be missed, so don't be late! Doors open at 9:30pm.

So, the lineup is officially Pancho Villa's Skull, Morning Shadows, and Blue Black Hours at the Blind Pig in Ann Arbor. It's a great lineup with a lot of variety, and only five bucks. Woohoo!

Sometime this month, we expect to be releasing a video. We're also looking for a volunteer to film us at our upcoming Blind Pig show on 9 March. If you would like to test your skills in live, video music recording, let us know, and we'll put you on the guest list!

Have we mentioned before that we are on Songkick? It's an app (and website, if you're out of memory for new apps like some of us who hoard photos on their devices- AHEM) that allows you to follow your favorite acts, whether local, national, or international. You can follow us there to get an update when we announce a new show. You can either go to their site at www.songkick.com and search for Morning Shadows, or follow the link below. Morning Shadows at Songkick

As always, we're looking for good shows to attend, and great local bands. If you have a suggestion, or play in a band yourself and would like us to see you live, write us at morningshadowsannarbor@gmail.com. This weekend, we're heading to Small's and Paycheck's to see what we can find.

More news coming soon!

New Year, New Music

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

The time has come. After making studio arrangements, Morning Shadows begins recording today. We're doing some sound calibration tonight, and then we expect recording to continue until we have all our current and in-progress tracks complete. We have no idea when the album can be expected, but we'll make an announcement as soon as we have a date set. You can expect a CD release party when the time comes.

Our next show is on Thursday, 9 March 2017 at the Blind Pig in Ann Arbor, with additional details still being discussed. Who will be the opening act? Stay tuned!
