We are going to play a show in Prague in November at the Ubuntu Summit

We have some news. We've been invited to play at the Ubuntu Summit in Prague in November!

(Check out how it went here: OUR FIRST SHOW IN EUROPE - PERFORMING AT THE UBUNTU SUMMIT IN PRAGUE)

How did this happen?

On a podcast, I talked with Erich Eickmeyer, the lead for the Ubuntu Studio operating system we use. It's a production suite that comes with open-source audio recording, video editing, and design software pre-installed.

I talked with Erich on the podcast because I wanted to meet the person that runs Ubuntu Studio just to geek out about what they do.

Well, last month Canonical, the company that runs all of the different versions of the Ubuntu operating system asked Erich if there were any musicians that use Ubuntu Studio that would be a good fit for the conference in November.

And Erich told them to contact us!

We're flying there to play the wrap party

They asked us to play at the wrap party for the Ubuntu Summit in Prague and we're pretty psyched about all of this!

I'll also be doing a talk

On top of that, I've been asked to do a talk about Ubuntu Studio for music. I'll be talking about how the band uses Ubuntu Studio, Ardour, and GitHub to collaborate on writing and recording music remotely.
