Dinner with the Band
Denise Fraser of DC Communications just emailed me today about a relatively new on-line show from ON Networks called Dinner with the Band. The idea behind the Internet based culture show where culinary arts intersects Indie music is to introduce the public to new bands by appealing to their appetites. The show is hosted by Sam Mason, a former pastry chef of New York’s famous WD-50 and the proprietor of the soon-to-open contemporary dining and cocktail parlor, Tailor (rumored to have opened yesterday). Mason hosts the show from his apartment in the city and cooks up some eclectic cuisine while interviewing the bands during each episode, bringing together two passions for a lot of folks, including myself: food and music.
Dinner with the Band looks like a really cool show. Here's a clip of a recent episode with the band Holy Hail making Miso Butterscotch Halibut... Wow! Looks fantastic!
So, if your an Indie band and live in New York, or are going to be in the area, then you need to send the folks at Dinner with the Band an email to get booked on the show. It would be a great opportunity to spread the word about your music, introducing yourself to thousands of potential new fans, and learn some cooking tips as well.
Peace, and as always, I welcome your thoughts and comments.
