Greetings to Whoville (and a special hello to
you, Cindy Lou Who!)
We've had
a tremendous response to our song contest which we kicked off
this past month and we thank everyone for their wonderful
efforts. This is a quick reminder that there are ONLY THREE
DAYS
LEFT to submit an entry for this month's contest if you want a shot at
winning the first song.
Don't know
what we're talking about? All the details are in
the "Especially for You" section at Poppermost.com,
but the crux of it is that for the next 12 months, we're having a
contest. One lucky winner per month will win a song written
especially for them. The theme will be different each month
and
at the end of the contest, all the songs will make up our next album.
For
all our loyal readers, here's some new
information so you can get a jump start on the next entry.
December
Trivia Question:
Where does the wishing well reside?
December
Essay Theme:
What puts you in a happy, danceable mood? How and
why? (e.g. chocolate, good lovin', a warm spring
rainfall, etc.)
Remember
to check Poppermost.com
in about 2 weeks when the first winner will be announced and their
essay posted. The winner's song will be ready in a couple
months;
we'll keep you updated.
In the
meantime, we hope everybody is starting to get into the holiday
spirit. Christmas, Hanakuh, and Kwanza are practically around
the
corner and this is the time of year for extra kindness, love, and joy
for our friends, family, and even strangers. A smile is a
wonderful gift to give!
Happy
Holidays from Popperland HQ
Lex, Ms.
Tex, and Royal

Hi
everyone,
Quick note
to give you a heads up. Poppermost’s
song,
"Isabella Vina," is being featured on Tiana Smith’s website
tomorrow. Just click on "Sing Song of the Day" at http://www.tianastar.com/
and look for the October 31st listing to find out what nice things she
has to say about us. Please visit and support her as she is
supporting us. Tiana’s website was featured in
Music
Connection magazine due to the promotion she’s giving to
other
musicians. How cool is that? Thanks Tiana.
Also, as
most of you well know, we are strict believers in not
pestering our friends and fans, which makes this next part a little
unorthodox for us. In a couple days we'll be sending another
e-mail to make a very special announcement -- a huge surprise for all
our friends. Please be sure to tune in again to hear about it
on
November 1.
Thanks and
Happy Halloween!
Poppermost

Poppermost
Press Release, July 2007
For
immediate release:
______________________
Poppermost
Turns On, 'Toons In, and Pops Out
The month
of July marks the 6th anniversary of Las Vegas indie pop band
Poppermost as a recording and performing entity. The "Las
Vegas Review-Journal's Best of 2007" recipients released
their third full-length CD, Bitter Suite Swan Songs,
the first since 2004's critically acclaimed Absolutely Sonic.
Poppermost
also has its own cartoon! The Schoolhouse
Rock meets School of Rock
project will trace the history of pop music, from ABBA to ZZ
Top.
"This is our response to the elimination of music and art programs in
public schools," says Poppermost drummer and vocalist Ms. Tex
Duckingham. "If we allow our kids to be deprived of learning
a
positive means of expression from our schools, then we're sending them
out into the world without the tools for creativity, imagination, and
soul. We can do better. That's why we plan to take
this
project on the road and into the schools."
A sneak
preview of the Poppermost cartoon characters (Lex, Ms. Tex, and
Royal), 3 tracks from Bitter Suite Swan Songs, and
a 3-minute aural introduction of Poppermost's new project can be found
at www.myspace.com/poppermost.
Please contact Suicide Pop! Records at 702-384-0306 or pop@poppermost.com
for more information.

Poppermost
Newsletter March 2007
Greetings
and Salutations.
It's been
a week of wonderful surprises here in Popperland.
First, we took the mastered copy of Bitter Suite Swan Songs
to the pressing factory! We'll have it in our hot little
hands
soon (about a couple weeks, barring any complications). After
that, we'll be sending out CDs to some special folks who believed in us
enough to show their support and help us raise the money for pressing
our latest CD by pre-ordering it for themselves, their friends, and
family. We love you and we wouldn't have been able to be here
this soon without you. Thank you!
For
everyone else who has yet to do so, this is your last chance to
take advantage of free shipping and handling, and a shot at free CDs if
several of you group together and place a pre-paid order for a copy of
our new CD, Bitter Suite Swan Songs.
Please refer to our last newsletter from December 2006, or visit our
music page at http://www.poppermost.com/poppermusic.html
for complete details.
Okay, so
that was the "first" part. Well, hang on to your
hats mamas and papas, 'coz this second part is a real kicker...
Poppermost
has been chosen as Best Local R&B Band in the Las
Vegas Review-Journal's Reader's Pick for The Best of Las
Vegas 2007. Not bad for an indie pop band, eh?
Check THIS out...
Here's
what it says:
"Not
many
R&B bands cite The Clash and Barbra Streisand as influences,
and
true to form, Poppermost isn't an obvious fit for this category: It
certainly won't be confused with Pretty Ricky, and for this, we are
eternally grateful. But while not a straight-up R&B
act in
the traditional sense of the term, these hot-blooded rockers do possess
a bit more soul than many of their peers, which manifests itself in a
slick, steady groove. They've been described as the 'anti-Hootie
fronting The Who,' and thankfully, the band's way more 'Live At Leeds'
than 'Cracked Rear View'."
If you
want to see it online, just click
here.
On a
completely different note... there are changes in the
air.
More great music, but with a special twist. Stay tuned for
the
surprising metamorphosis of the new Poppermost that will be coming your
way soon.
Alex and
Roy Al
