SHAKE YOUR PEACE! is one of my favorite bands because
1. The travel by bikes and public transportation instead of a band van
2. They generate their own power for microphones and amps by pedaling a bike instead of using an outlet
3. They plant a tree for each CD they make
4. They are based out of a camping tent on the roof of a pink house in SanFrancisco's Mission District.
5. Their website is hosted with 100% wind & solar power by Thinkhost.
6. Their music ROCKS!
Because they are self-sufficient they can have concerts anywhere. This means free concerts are held at various parks and outdoor settings.
I've already spent a fair amount of time on their website, falling even more in love with their awesome ways of music. I strongly urge you to check it out. More music is available on their myspace page. I am particularly fond of "Arms of a Gypsy".
Music + Great Outdoors = Pure Happiness
Marcie! This is great. We have so many of the same ambitions it appears. But you are better at accomplishing them. I'm okay with that. Have you ever seen Harriet the Spy??? If you have there is a line in that movie that perfectly describes you and my experience in getting to know you.
ReplyDeleteI'd never heard of these guys and am so glad to know about them! Beautiful!
