Come Calabash this May

 

Calabash - art show, band show: Poster by Jamie B. Wolcott

 

Join us!  Beloved Binge is playing for you on Saturday May 19th with the New Town Drunks (finally!) at the Carrack.  We might debut our new drunk-related song to celebrate.

For a full lineup of the 4-day performance fest, including Curtis Eller, Django Haskins, Michael Casey, and more, see Jamie’s page here.

Early Bull City Connector Benefit Show @ the Pinhook

Benefit for Durham’s free Bull City Connector, who subsequently earned their very own theme song written by bicyclin’ band the Wigg Report.  Following WR, Durham’s newest electronic duo (and perhaps only) Ellertronic delivered their smooth-throated dark synth dance pop and we accepted, gratefully. All at the Pinhook featuring new stage and moons.  Professional (aka non-iPhone) photos fo the show here by Ash Crowe.

Beloved Binge renews vows with hometown (with divorce caveat)

Beloved Binge was invited to play the 2nd annual Marry Durham celebration.  An article including Eleni Binge appeared here in the Herald-Sun, and photos of the event here.

As you can see, we dressed up for the occasion and Tofu Mama even wore his special tuxedo shirt. If you were a wedding planner making a list of invitees, we have no doubt your ideal guests would look like us.

If you have any photos of BB playing, share! (We saw you snapping.)

 

Next up, NY friends the Shondes

The Shondes in '06, at Ye Olde BC Records!

 

Back in ’06, brand spankin’ new to Durham, young(er) Beloved Binge played a show with NY’s The Shondes at the old Bull City Records shop.

Just found the old writeup — thanks Google — from the Indy!

The Shondes, America’s Next Top Models, Beloved Binge, Chaz’s Bull City Records

Outcasts all, Brooklyn’s The Shondes (Yiddish for “disgrace”) burn on violin-and-guitar queercore fueled by the desire for sexual equality and Palestinian peace. Think Joshua Tree with the above criteria, only more nervous and jittery, like sporting doubly marginal politics on national tour. America’s Next Top Models–Durham’s destroying American satirists with an effrontery even W couldn’t miss–open. If Lee Ranaldo and Fontaine Toups had wed, Beloved Binge–new to the Bull City–would have been their Teen Beat babies. Free/8 p.m. –GC

Outcasts, still!

Come check them out — sharing the bill with local favorites Brainbows.

An 18+ show!

You’re invited.
