Diwas Gurung – Jharana Sahar EP

In between playing Rung’s shows, recording new music, writing songs, and practicing, we’ve got a lot of musical endeavors going on in our house 🙂

Diwas was busy last month in our home studio creating this beautiful Nepali EP! You don’t need to understand Nepali to enjoy these tracks, but just in case, the last song ‘Rubble Disco’ is in English and it is indeed a fun one 🙂

The style of music is Nepali folk-rock fusion. Diwas Gurung’s artist page on Facebook can be found here: https://www.facebook.com/diwasg

Sacred Grounds Coffee House Tampa

Sacred Grounds is such a unique coffee shop in Tampa located just down the street from Busch Gardens! A detailed menu of specialty drinks, shelves filled with books, board games, and artwork, the stage lined with instruments, a full PA system, colorful tapestries strewn across the walls, a fish take set in between two large windows that look out onto Busch Blvd and the nicest sweetest most welcoming owner, Karen. It was our first time playing music in a coffee shop that was so special and supportive of the arts!! We had a lot of fun playing our songs for everyone and we definitely want to come back to Tampa and play here again in 2015 🙂

So amped about shows! Next: 12/9 @ Silvana NYC

Okay so it seems lately that all I post about are show announcements! I didn’t even really realize it, but looking over my last few blog posts and tweets, it’s just one show after the next! I guess you can see where my head is at these days. Playing live music. I LOVE it. And December is full of shows that I am super psyched about. How did I go from being someone who was sure that they had some form of paralyzing performance anxiety, to someone who craves playing shows all of the time?! The trick that I realized is this: It’s all about having fun and experiencing each moment 🙂

Next on the list is this Tuesday, Dec 9th, at Silvana in the upper west side NYC. It is a middle eastern restaurant and I’m almost as excited about having dinner as I am about playing. Here is the FB event.

 

Boston here we come!

So I’ve been wanting to play in Boston for a while now and we are finally making our way up there this weekend! Boston is such a cool city filled with education, music, culture.. I could go on and on! I am so excited for this Saturday night. We will be at The Wonder Bar, 186 Harvard Ave. opening for Lizzy Pitch and Band without Hands, an event we’re calling the Electropunks Takeover 🙂

The show starts at 9:30pm so get there early to hang with us!
