Help us make records and save lives, for real.


Friends,


First, thanks to all of you who have downloaded and continue to download our record, One Last Century. It’s been a great experience for us to be able to connect directly with our fans, as well as make some new ones. Thank you all for your continued support. Consider One Last Century as our gift to you, though really it’s just payback for all the great support you’ve given us over the years.
As we embark on a new recording project, we need to ask for your help. Bands rely on their fans. You’re the people who come to the shows, buy us drinks, sing along, and make us feel pretty. The Damnwells need to take that one step further. Don’t worry; you can keep your clothes on (for now, anyway). What we need is your help in making our next record. We’ve recently partnered up with Pledge Music, an organization that helps independent bands raise the money necessary to make records. What’s so great about Pledge is that not only do they help independent bands get their records made, they also donate 10% of the money tallied to charity.

Alex’s Blog / LA and SxSW!

By Alex • Mar 21st, 2009 • Category: Alex Speaks...

Back in Los Angeles for the first time in eight months. It didn’t feel like Los Angeles. Los Angeles. It even sounds like a mystery, a mistake from my lips. And now I’m starting to think that the Los Angeles I lived in was solely in my mind; a massively fragmented [...]
