The Quiet

Los Angeles, CA

“Los Angeles needs The Quiet. They have the capability to shake things up because they're not following any sort of predictable L.A. trend like corny Sunset Strip nostalgia or unwelcoming Silverlake snobbery.” – Rick Florino, Artist Direct, 7/18/09 ... view more

    CD Release Show -- We made it!

    We thought this was a fitting tribute to all those who helped make our new CD, "Let It Fall" a reality.

    Official Album Information

    After what has seemed like an eternity of preparing for recording dates... we will finally enter the studio on Super Bowl Sunday to set up and begin groundwork on album #2. We are very excited to finally be making good on the opportunity you all gave us, and the extra motivation of not letting all you backers down has really kicked the music up a notch.

    If you pledged for getting studio updates, they will be posted a little more fast and furiously in the coming weeks-- check your email accounts for an email from wearethequiet@gmail.com that has all the details.

    Everyone else, we'll be posting various studio goodies for you as well here on the official Kickstarter page.

    As for the record release date... we'll officially release on April 20th, with a big CD release show at The Hotel Cafe in Los Angeles that Saturday, April 24th. However, for Kickstarter backers, we will distribute digital copies of the album as soon as it is finished-- probably sometime in March-- as well as physical copies once we have them. Basically, the minute we have something to distribute to you... you're going to have it. And it will probably make you cry. Or it won't. Because you are a robot and/or don't have a heart.

    Thanks so much everyone, and we'll talk to you/see you very soon!

        That was AWESOME Brendan! Not only did you lose the beard - you went back in time- and YOUTHED!!!
        (it is a word - just check out the Play Camelot with Richard Harris - Musician Actor and Beard!)
        I am only disappointed you left out Steven Page and Ed Robertson in your Beard Tribute.

        I just keep watching it. Again. I had to watch it before the next sentence. Man, beards are so awesome. And powerpoint beards, and Kenny Loggins beards, and Quiet beards... (sigh) man this kickstarter things has all been worth it. If only for the creative outlet for things like this. Fear not, Brendan... for where there was once a beard, there can only be opportunity for a bigger, better, and bushier beard to come. Amen.

        Awesome. The music in the vid is catchy as hell too! Feels like an Iron Eagle 2 soundtrack or something.

        I think your work computers share IP addresses, so someone in your office already voted for everyone! I believe an email poll is in the works ;-)
