“Sessions From the Box features intimate performances and interviews from up and coming and established artists”, and we were tickled to be asked to participate. It’s pretty exciting to be in the same company as artists like Erin McKeown, The Crosswalks, The Hydropods, and Gliss. Said podcast is now up on on the Sessions website and can also be found on iTunes. Go ahead, pop in and have a listen!

Sessions From The Box – Donerail

Donerail...as a Cartoon Artwork by Emily Block.

First off, Donerail will be playing a show in Portland at KELLY’S OLYMPIAN this coming Tuesday, July 22nd with our friends Hutson. Donerail will be playing first at 9pm, so don’t be late. This will also mark the first gig for Donerail’s new drummer Duncan!

Next, the boys will be heading down to Eugene to play McSHANE’S BAR & GRILL on Saturday, July 26th. It’s going to be a full night of music, and this time, we’ll be welcoming back original Donerail drummer, Dain! We’d booked this one before Duncan was added to the band, so this is a one-time only event – it’s kinda like when Van Halen got back together for that one performance and no one told Dave that he wasn’t back in the band…although, I’m pretty sure Dain knows better

Oh yeah, Donerail has a new drummer – Duncan John. Please welcome him the next time you see the band. We wish all the best for Sean.

jP made me put this part in:
I assure you an album is forthcoming! It’s in the mastering phase right now, and soon we’ll have a name and some artwork for you to drool over. In the meantime, be sure to check out our myspace (www.myspace.com/donerail) and website (www.thedonerail.com) for some new songs. Don’t forget about our blog (www.thedonerail.com/blog), we’ll be putting up stories from the recordings and from the road soon.
