PUNK & FUNK COMING TO THE DIGITAL CAFÉ TOUR
Updated 7/31/06

August 5, 2006 - 8:30 PM - Punk and Funk. The Audibles' long-awaited CD release party. Secret Gossip brings blue-eyed funk all the way from Nashville.

The Audibles formed in the fall of 2003. With influences ranging from The Police, Elvis, and Faith No More, The Audibles are as eclectic as they are tasteful. Intense vocal harmonies, coupled with melodic basslines and atmospheric guitar riffs atop balls-to-the wall drum beats, add up to make for a monstrous sound - delivered live at every show via this no-nonsense, no-frills rock trio. Their DCT performance celebrates the release of their brand new CD, "No Frills."

Secret Gossip combines elements of jazz, funk, R. 'n B., gospel, and rock music to satisfy your hankerin' for a hunk of southern fried funk. Based in Nashville, Tennessee, Secret Gossip has played high profile events such as the Nashville Pride Fest, a CMJ showcase at the Red Lion in New York City, a "Support The Troops" benefit in Panama City, Florida and the NAMM show (National Association of Music Merchants) in 2003 and 2004. The group released its debut EP "Music For The PM" in the summer of 2003 and is currently spreading the word about the release of its new self-titled LP.

Each show is hosted by our official DCT emcee, WDHA-FM's Jeff Charone. The Luna Stage crew created a top-notch stage and lighting design, while DCT sponsor QSC has provided a state-of-the-art sound system. Don't miss a show! But if you do, you can catch it soon at http://www.digitalcafetour.com!
