ALL STAR BANNER

Puppy Love 3!!!

Our third annual benefit for the Ottawa Humane Society! Featuring performances by the J Fongs, the Sick Sick Sicks and the Dusty Drifters.


Spike brings a bit of attitude

New Bass Player!

The Bible All-Stars would like to announce the departure of bassist and co-founding member Joel Carlson. He has recently decided to leave the band to focus his energy on his family and his career. Joel will be missed from band and we wish him all the best for the future.

From Joel: "Leaving the band was a difficult decision for me. It's been awesome being a part of the Bible All-Stars and I will always be a fan and a promoter of the music. Though, I'm looking forward to devoting more time to family and career, I intend to help the guys out where possible. I wish the BAS much success for the future."

His permanent replacement will be long time friend, Mike "Spike" Lawson, who previously played guitar with Joel in the Celtic band, JIMMY GEORGE and has also played with Tim and Greg as a member of the PATSIES. As a veteran of the indie scene, Spike brings a distinctive approach to the music that will add to the band's unique country punk style. We welcome him to the band and the busy year ahead.

Spike's live performance debut with the band will be headlining the CKCU/CHUO/Steam Whistle Halloween Party at Irene's Pub (885 Bank Street) on Saturday, October 31st. The show also features Toronto's LittleFoot LongFoot, the Sin Sisters and Vancouver's the Manvils.

Humane Society Benefit

The Humane Society Benefit at Irene's was Saturday, April 12. Also playing were the Rookers and Sick Sick Sicks. It was a great success - over $1100 was raised. Many thanks to all who participated in the silent auction (both providing and buying stuff), and especially to the bands for playing for a cause.

The Right Honourable Sir Wilfred Laurier

Let's Go Liberal

This is a rough mix of a song that we wrote for friends of ours who are Liberal supporters. We're not exactly liberals ourselves but we are pretty liberal thinking (particularly with our morals) but if you support the band enough ... what the hell ... Well you get the picture ... thanks for supporting the band.

the Dakota

Our first out-of-town show at the Dakota in Toronto was a lot of fun. We opened for the Evil Farm Children and much rock occurred. See? The Toronto crowd isn't as sullen and uninterested as reported.

The Ottawa Alt-Country weekend was a huge success! Thanks for coming out. When the All-Stars kicked out their brand of high octane Cow Punk on Saturday night with good friends Lefty McRighty and the Polymorphines the audience sure as hell knew what to do! It was a blast. If you missed this one, be sure to catch the debauchery next time around! Thanks again!

Back to the Bottle Again video

All -Stars video

Apparently, one of the revellers at the CD release party took it upon themselves to video a song (Back to the Bottle Again). Thanks - we appreciate all the help we can get! Please go to the Facebook, Youtube, or Google video and check it out.

CD release party

CD Release Party Success!

The Bible All-Stars would like to thank everyone who came or tried to come out! The show on September 8th was completely sold out and, damn, you guys drink a lot! Lucky Ron and 90 pounds of Ugly quickly whipped everyone into a frenzy which lasted all night. The Bible All-Stars took the stage at 11:45 and ramped up the psychobilly until the wee hours of the morning to an amazing audience who themselves became part of the show!

Bible All-Stars CD

CD Now Available in Local Stores and Online

With interest in the CD increasing, it has become difficult for the band to follow up themselves on orders. In light of this, the CD has been made available through 4 locations in Ottawa ( Birdman Sound, Compact Music in the Glebe, Nine Lives, and Vertigo) and we've added an online store to our site (thanks to Steve at www.tunevault.com). If you can't wait to pick one up at the next show, please drop into one the of these locations or grab it online.
