It's done! The final song list is complete for the Poppa's next CD "In Vein" (thanks to Dead Nuckles for that title by the way).
The boys dropped the song "Outside My Door" and added the new song "Setting Sail" (Give it a listen here: Setting Sail.) They've also included their song "Party With Poppa Vein". They have posted a live version (You can check it out here: Party With Poppa Vein.) which may end up being the version that makes it to the CD - let 'em know whatcha think!

Here's another one for ya! This is a simple mellow groove feel good tune to bop yer head at. It just makes ya groove! It's got some guitar and synth leads, B3, and even a bit o' trumpet to make ya happy.
This released version will likely go through another mix or two but probably no new tracking! Check it out: Sweet Love.

Get on the List
While you're here, why dontcha get on the Poppa Vein mailing list? The boys send out a newsletter about once a month so ya can keep up to date with what's happening including new songs, gigs, etc.
Just send an email to:
info@PoppaVein.com
and ask to be added to the list.
The live band has had it's ups and downs, mostly downs (you can go to the "Info.aspx" tab to read more about the adventures). Right now there's no live band in the works, and therefore no gigs planned.
The boys would like to encourage you to purchase their CD, or other independent musician's CD's, to help preserve the writing, recording, and sale of music by artists that aren't supported through the main stream, commercial music industry.
There is a lot of "undiscovered" talent in the world that offers great entertainment value. Most independent musicians, Poppa Vein included, produce music because they have a deep love for it and want to share it. And, they have no great expectation of "making it big", but that is not their goal.
Independent musicians like Poppa Vein primarily receive compensation for their efforts in the form of praise. But any purchase of their music is always appreciated; there's not a much better way to express praise to a musician than to throw a buck or two their way! And, it really does help offset the expense of recording and duplicating CD's.
The boys from Poppa Vein sincerely thank all of you who have purchased the Bad Blood CD, and encourage you to purchase other independent band CD's as you are able to.
Since there's no upcoming gigs, why doncha check out this high tech time-lapse photography, taken undercover by an
unknown fan during one of their rehearsal sessions. It shows some of the refreshments that Raw Meat
consumed during the 2 hour session.
