A message from the band...(updated 5/18/2020)...
Greetings! Hope you're staying safe and SANE. Hope you're finding peace with what is happening all around us, and we hope you know how much we miss you and how much we can't wait to get back out there and play for you. Without further ado....here's our important announcements, as promised.
3 ANNOUNCEMENTS! (the third one is very exciting!):
1 - The album recording is totally done! Yes, for real this time. Thanks to the one-and-only Bongo John, it is 100% done, mastered, ready to go. Now we're in the final stages of artwork development, and we'll be ready to place the orders for physical copies this week. THANK YOU TO ALL THE SUPPORT WE HAVE GOTTEN ON THE PRE-ORDER CAMPAIGN. WE CAN'T THANK YOU ENOUGH. If you haven't already done so, please jump in there and pre-order the album so we can put as little money as possible on our credit cards to meet our promises. If we didn't have 20+ shows cancelled, we would have reached our goals already. But here we are. Please support if you can, and we promise the album is worth your generosity.
2 - We had to delay our release, a little bit, obviously. Due to the current situation, we regret to announce that we will have to bump back all release and delivery dates about a month or so. We are sorry for the inconvenience, but we are sure you understand. Everything is still happening though. We keep all promises that we make.
3 - We're going "On Tour" - Yes, you read that correctly! We have scheduled and planned out 24 tour dates that will be a mixture of full band, trio, duo, and solo stuff featuring all of the members of the Cosmic Superheroes. We're doing themed and scheduled events, and sometimes even posting the setlist before we play so you know what to expect....we're talking about some tribute sets, playing our albums front to back, "storytellers", and much more. Some of this stuff will occur out in the world (adhering to social-distance guidelines,) and some will be just us and the camera, playing directly online, for you. ALL OF IT WILL BE LIVE-STREAMED!
It's called the BIGGER THAN US 2020 Spring Tour.
As we're sure you've also realized...this current situation is much much BIGGER THAN US, and will affect the entire globe for years to come. That's why we want to jump in early and partner with real-life people with real-life problems. All of the shows on this "Bigger Than Us" Tour will have a charity-partner, and we'll donate a part of the tips and proceeds from each event to that cause. Some ideas that we are currently working on include: Raleigh Music Venue Employee Fund, Colorectal Cancer Awareness & Research, Housing Assistance for Homeless Children, Suicide Awareness and Prevention, struggling local businesses, and the local food banks. If you have any ideas or know of any people who could benefit from a few bucks or even the spreading of their cause, please let us know ASAP.
All of the details are still coming together now, but check out our Tour on Facebook, and stay posted at https://cosmicsuperheroes.com/bigger-than-us as we unfold and announce the details!
Cheers! Stay Safe! We love you!
Brandon, Bongo, Paul, and Paul
