2014 was a huge year for Progger! We weathered a lot of life transitions on individual and group bases, released our second record, and played in a ton of new places we never had before. Of course, we had lots of help from amazing groups like the Indie Revenge, the Funky Knuckles, and our homeys in Snarky Puppy, as well as countless other gifted bands and musicians from the Southwest to the Northeast. And the support of our friends and fans across the country made our shows and productions possible. With all the complicated and challenging changes facing the music industry these days, we’re fortunate to be able to create, travel, and produce music in this wonderful, diverse nation, and the love we receive from you incredible people is not taken for granted.
The coming year is going to yield some beautiful things including new audio/video releases and a slew of shows in cities across the United States. Of course, we’ll be visiting our home bases of Austin, Dallas, and New York, as well as our homes-away-from-home like New Orleans and Atlanta, but we’re planning on striking tons of new ground, too. Toronto, Chicago, and Kansas City are all in our sights, as well as numerous burgs in between.
We can’t possibly express our gratitude for the kind words and media plugs we’ve received about our second full-length album, “Populace,” and the shows we played in its support. It’s really a dream come true to have our energy, love, and creativity spread throughout the music world, and it inspires us to make more new, dynamic, creative music to share with all of the listeners and enthusiasts out there. We’ll keep updating here and via proggermusic@gmail.com with all the new shows and productions happening in the next few months. Thanks for helping to make new music happen, and we’ll see you in the new year!
