Making a record...
Hello friends,
Hope all is well. New Years Eve is all about looking to the future…so in keeping with that tradition, we just wanted to take a few seconds to reveal our plans for finishing this record. We’ve written nearly all the songs for the record…we’ve written probably more material than we could fit on a cd, but this current collection of songs feels like the right...

Where have we been?
Greetings!
We realize it’s been a long time since we reconnected about any news regarding California Wives. Rest assured, we have been very busy connecting the dots over here in Chicago. At the moment, we have a bank of new songs that have been in multiple stages of the demo-ing process…some finished, some half way there, some just beginning. It has always been our plan to record a full-length...

A letter from the CW family!
HeLLo!
I hope your weekend has been a dream. just thought we drop a note about the band…some news on what we’re working on and how far along we are with our next release. Sometimes we get tunnel vision with our projects and lose track of time, so we apologize for not dishing out more news a little sooner.
First off, those live videos we were talking about earlier…well they...
Friday/April is near/Tokyo
For all you Chicago folk, tomorrow we have a show at the Empty Bottle starting at 10 PM. We are playing with two other Chicago bands, Color Radio & Soft Speaker, so make sure you come right when doors open! We’ll be playing most of the songs we played at our Billboard set at SXSW, with maybe one exception (what could it be???).
But tomorrow isn’t only the day of our show,...

Facebook, why oh why!?
Sorry friends,
Our facebook page isn’t working right now. Some people are getting the “page you have requested can’t be found” error message. It exists! I swear.
We’ve contacted our friends at facebook to get things operational again, so hopefully they can work the magic!

April 1st.
It’s amazing what 18 hours of driving can do to you. Hypnosis doesn’t even describe it. You’re just hoping for nightfall to justify how tired you really are. I’ve seen this part of the country hundreds of times in a car, but it always seems to get flatter with each pass. Either way, home is home is home is home. Waking up this morning, I was reminded of all still left to do...
On A Computer, At Last
A couple of days have passed since we’ve used a computer to communicate. Last night was our first night in Austin for SXSW and the sheer size of this festival is pretty overwhelming. We were able to catch some pretty cool bands last night and had a few drinks in the process. Today we’ll be doing a small interview and playing a very stripped down version of Purple. Perhaps a good warm...
