We're back on stage!

Hello everyone!
It's been a while since we've been able to perform due to various challenges that are fortunately behind us for the most part. It also has been a while since we've posted on the blog, so wanted to take a minute to take care of both of those items at once. Yes, I know how cool that is and that is how we roll. Ha! ;)

So this past Saturday, we had an opportunity to play a show with a few other local bands (When Night Falls, Consume The Divide and Wrecked), at the Krew Rock Lounge in Berwyn. I'd be lying if I said it was a perfect night as we all know there is always "something" that doesn't go as planned or has room for improvement, but things went well. We had a good time and most importantly, you the fans and our friends that were able to join us had a great time. 
We played a variety of songs from our back catalog, in addition to some new songs from the upcoming album. Yes, I said upcoming album. It is still in the works, we're making a lot of progress on it and you will get to listen to it in all its metal glory very, very soon. Stay tuned for that.

If you missed the show, we brought our own official photographer (Mario Salazar Photography) to capture the best moments of our performance and he did get some amazing imagery from the show. Make sure you check them out in our 'Live In Concert' gallery and visit him online if you need killer, professional photography or media for your band, business or personal needs.

We already are looking forward to our next show in April which will be in Barrington. Check our calendar for the exact details and to keep updated on what's going on this spring and summer for Two Ton Anvil.

Thank you for visiting our website and your continued support of our band.
Keep it metal and see you all next time!

Above a clip of me tracking myself and rehearsing lead solos in the studio. Excited to finally get the new music recorded and out there! We're trying to get the EP completed and released by early Fall or sooner if possible. Keep it locked in for updates! Be sure to try to catch one of our shows this Summer at a venue near you. Looking forward to meeting you all in person! Cheers!

...what a mess

4/10/2014

Well....here we go again with the drama!

In my musician's eyes you are either a professional musician - or you're not...professional musicians are dedicated to their craft and to their project. They show up for rehearsals with all their homework done so everyone in the band can have a solid practice. You show up for shows prepared. You fulfill your commitments and obligations. You don't quit, lie, make excuses, or let your problems affect your fellow bandmates (to the best of your ability at least). We have had more people call themselves musicians trying to be a part of this band....then quit, flake out, not show up, burn out...wtf people????

We'll tell you what - we'll be much more clear in the future about the "type" of musician we're looking for....

gheesh -----> thanks for letting us vent!

-Reed & Glenn

Wow this has been a brutal winter! We're getting things accomplished though....new songs, new players, new opportunities for the band and our music featured now on more internet and FM radio stations! We couldn't have accomplished that without you, our friends, fans, and followers.
