Mixtape Atlanta

Make Music with Lauren St. Jane

Atlanta's alternative country favorite Lauren St. Jane is working on her next EP and needs YOUR help.

Like many artists, Lauren and her band have turned to Kickstarter to help fund this EP. Their goal is to raise $12,000 by January 1, 2014; they are a little over a fourth of the way there, but need their fans help to get the rest. This is an all or nothing campaign, so if they don't reach the funds in 3 days they loose what they have already gathered.

From private shows, to a night of karaoke with Lauren and the band, to a Braves game outing, and more this is your chance to join the band and make music happen with your donation. Every dollar helps!

X-Mix 2013 Wrap-Up

 

 

 

 

For Mixtape Atlanta's annual X-Mix held on Friday, December 13 at Vinyl, the venue was transformed into a vision of merry and scary to reflect this year's theme of The Nightmare Before X-Mix.

Whynatte kicked off the party with a toast and round of shots for all those 21 and over, and Yosef was first to take the stage in a line-up that included Mel Washington, Wesley Cook, Aerobics Cube, The Electric Sons, and a rock filled finale by James Hall. Yacht Rock Revue also stopped by to perform a few songs. While dancing and music was had onstage, revelry and- probably too many Whynatte shots- overtook the crowd, including notable guests Butch Walker and members from Skid Row.

All proceeds from the night benefited Songs for Kids Foundation, and HUGE holiday hugs to all that donated in addition to the door cover.

Check out all the fun from the stage to the photo booth here.

All Things Yachty and Bright

Yacht Rock Revue returned to Variety Playhouse for their annual holiday special featuring smooth tunes and tacky sweaters. Thanks to all who donated to the Atlanta Community Food Bank by getting their photo taken in Mixtape Atlanta's photo booth.

The Electric Sons "Carry On"

As if these guys couldn't get any cooler. Fresh off bringing the party to The Nightmare Before X-Mix last Friday, The Electric Sons have released another dance igniting music video. "Carry On" was filmed at Wreckroom Records in Adrian Grenier's Brooklyn home, and we dare you not to jump along.

Roll with The District Attorneys

Atlanta's The District Attorneys are kicking 2014 off with one of the best albums of 1995 for what is sure to be a wonderwall of fun and music. The local rockers will be performing a tribute to Oasis' (What's The Story) Morning Glory? plus the album's B-Sides on Friday, January 3 at Smith's Olde Bar. The rowdy night starts at 8PM with Party Dolls opening the electric lineup, so come early, stay late, and be prepared to party... some might say it is an event not to be missed.
