November 11, 2004 - Autumn winds are chillin' but we are hard at work laying down tracks for our first official CD! With engineer Jamie Locke running the digital board, The Paisley Project is getting set to release a compilation of popular tunes from our live shows, and a couple of little surprises as well. Sure to make the cut are tunes like Woodstock, Little Wing, a dance version of Venus, and a sexy presentation of To Sir With Love. Also expect Paisley Fever at a New Year's Eve party set for The Center for Arts in Natick! When we line up a few more gigs we'll post 'em on the site and you'll be the first to know. May 31, 2004 - Happy Memorial Day! Lots going on - David is now the Exec Director at The Center for Arts in Natick (interim anyway!) and Tom Yates is hosting a Rock and Blues Jam on Tuesday nights at the same location - a great performance space in beautiful downtown Natick. Check our gig listings...we'll be playing at Foxwoods Casino this weekend, and have accepted a gig at the MDC Hatch Shell - opening for Three Dog Night! Greetings from all of us - keep on rockin' and support live music! January 5, 2004 - Happy New Year! We had an outstanding time at the Sit N Bull Saturday night, it was a real New Years celebration and the dancers went at it till the wee hours...thanks to all for coming out to see us. Ted at the Sit N Bull invited us to make a regular stop there every other month, so we hope to see you all again sometime in March. Also remember to come down to The Center for Arts in Natick (TCAN) for a dance concert show February 6 at 8:00 PM - it's a fantastic venue, 290 seats and we hope to fill the place! Call early for tickets - the price goes up by a few dollars if you wait till the day of show. December 2, 2003 - Hey everybody, how are you? The Paisley Project is learning some new stuff for our next round of public gigs (we've been doing private parties for a while until we re-emerge at Sit N Bull in Maynard on January 3rd) so next time out we'll be doing some "hard stuff" by The Kinks, The Who, Chi Coltrane, the Stones, maybe even Moody Blues - so please check out the calendar and come out to see us after New Years! September 25, 2003 - We hope to see everyone at BILL'S BAR on Lansdowne Street across from Fenway Park, this Saturday night at 9:00pm. Mike Macrides is taking a well-deserved break as drummer for The Paisley Project and we all wish him the best -- so this is our first public appearance with exciting new drummer Mark Grasseschi, who joins us from successful stints with DECADES BY DEZYNE and SOUL CITY. Check it out this weekend! August 1, 2003 - Everybody's on vacation, relaxing and thinking up new songs to add to the Paisley Project repertoire...hope you're having a fantastic summer!
