1st quarter - #FullCanvas

Peace and waddup! Well the first quarter of 2012 has came to a close and it has been one hell of a run so far. With the expansion of our live experience by adding a full back-line (shout out Erin, Mark, Jeff and Jupiter) and our experimental shows, we have been having a blast. Bringing you our album #FullCanvas in the most visual/musical way has been our mission. Let's recap some of the events that has come to pass. #420
We were apart of a 420 show and teamed up with www.saccannmove.org to present this show along with the Arden Park Roots. This show took place at Harlows. Here is a little snippet from the Sacramento News and Review about this show:
"It’s Midtown’s premier 4/20 party. There will be tunes from Sleeprockers, Live Manikins and Arden Park Roots at this Friday-night celebration at Harlow’s. Selekta Lou will be deejaying all day, and there will be art and dancing, of course. The first 100 people in the door get prizes and gifts. High holidays, indeed. It starts at 4:20 p.m. and goes all night. This is also a good place to find and sign the Committee for Safe Patient Access to Regulated Cannabis ballot-measure petition to bring medical-cannabis dispensaries back to Sacramento County. Harlow’s, 2708 J Street; 4:20 p.m.; $24 for an all-day pass, $12 for Arden Park Roots; 21 and over; www.harlows.com; www.saccannmove.org"
- To summarize this show, it was a blast and here is a clip of our song Saturday complete with a horn section brought by our homie Anthony Coleman Live Manikins - Saturday
#RecordStoreDay - April 21st live at Dimple Records
Shout out to Van at Dimple Records on inviting us out to rock with ARG x Sleeprockers and DJ Los on record store day. We bbq'd like some real men and rocked music. Here are some flicks from the event.

#Simplistic Big Band takes Harlow's stage Sunday x Live Manikins
Speaking on our friend Anthony (who brought the horns), he invited us out to do a rendition of our song "These Days" backed by a 23 piece band which was amazing. Read more here: #Simplistic

#Sleeprockers x #Hieroglyphics live at CSUS

- Want to give a shoutout to Sleeprockers for inviting us out to perform our song #Diskjock off of #FullCanvas with them. It was dope and we were glad to share the stage with Heiro, Task1ne and of course the Sleeprockers!


#Capital performance. Yes you heard right. We performed at the Marijuana March that was at the Capital May 5th. This march was for better reform on marijuana regulations and we were proud to be apart of this.



#FullCanvas - We thank you for your continued support through the first quarter of 2012. We have been working hard presenting our dreams and ambitions to you and we appreciate the feedback, love, good looks, and daps along the way. #Respect and #FullCanvas
