The Joshua Shneider Easy-Bake Orchestra featuring Lucy Woodward at the Brooklyn Lyceum May 7

Previous and prospective Pulse patrons and potential proponents: Josh here, indulging in a bit of shameless self promotion. I am excited to be bringing the Joshua Shneider Easy-Bake Orchestra to the Brooklyn Lyceum at 8pm on May 7th as part of the wonderful weekly music series that Joe Phillips is curating. The evening will feature some brand new material as well as a cadre of fantastic musicians many of you will be familiar with. It also marks the return appearance of Femme Chirp Extraordinaire Lucy Woodward with the band. Lucy is one of my most favoritist singers- check her out at lucywoodward.com and more importantly with us.

Pulse blog updates

A heads-up to all -- we have just updated the Pulse blog with all kinds of tasty new audio and visual content. Check out our new MP3 page, which now has audio from our recent Chamber Pulse + Triocracy performance at the Brooklyn Lyceum, and lots more besides, going back all the way to our debut show at the Puffin Room back in December 2004. We also added new photo galleries from Roulette, Galapagos, and St. Peter's. The About Pulse section is now a wee bit more descriptive, and the individual composer pages linked in the left sidebar have been updated as well. We've also added ShareThis support for the social networking sites you kids love so much.

We're also very pleased to make a couple of quick announcements about future projects -- in the fall, Pulse will be working with singer-songwriter Joy Askew, and in 2009 we will be bringing your our first dance project in collaboration with TAKE Dance. We'll have more to say on both of those projects as we move forward, so why don't you go ahead and subscribe to our RSS feed or join our mailing list?
