Ho, ho, ho…

Get ready for some rock and roll magic on December 8th at the Caledonia Lounge in Athens, GA. We are putting on a holiday throwdown to celebrate the release of XMAS 3: The War on Christmas and you are all invited. The jamz kick off at 9:30 with minisets from Fabulous Bird, The Folk Yous, Andy from Denver (I accidentally called him Andy from Colorado on the poster - oops, sorry Andy) and the debut of The Buddy System. Then full sets will be rocked by Spring Tigers and King of Prussia!

And if the printing gods decide to smile on us you will also be able to pick up XMAS 3 at the show! I know, awesome huh? Come find out…

Hey Kidz!

The comics may still be on the printing press and the CDs may still be baking in the magic CD oven thingy (how do they make CDs anyway right? Oh well, we may never know) BUT you can now preorder the newest (and greatest) installment in the Kindercore holiday compilation series. Click HERE to place your order and we will ship ‘em the second they get back from the plant. But don’t drag your feets, because we are only making 100 copies for sale online (seriously, no joking) - the music and comics will also be available from the iTunes store in a week or so but this is the only place to pick up the limited edition physical version. While you are at it why not pick up the just released “Save The Scene” from King of Prussia, The Trouble Revolution comic and music anthology or our two new shirts (the Lauren Gregg Kindercore Puppy Shirt or the Ryan Lewis “Love American Style” shirt)?! Give a little Kindercore this Xmas!!

PLUS - 100% percent of the profits from this release (both the physical and digital versions) will be donated to Oxfam America to help out unfortunate folks around the world - so get your rock on and geek out for charity this XMAS!! Let the War on Christmas begin!

Hey kiddos!

After much toiling in the pixel and code factory we are ready to let ‘er rip as it were. Head over to www.kindercore.com/shop to pick up The Trouble Revolution comic and music anthology, the debut from Athens pop darlings King of Prussia (Available now on CD exclusively in our shop. Yup, this is the only place you will be able to get it on disc - coming at the end of the month to iTunes and various other digital distros) AND our first two shirt designs in the clothing section.

Over the next few weeks we will be ironing things out and adding some out of print stuff to the shop to be sure to check back. In early December look for XMas 3: The War on Christmas, a 20 track CD comp of bands rocking the jingle bell jams (look for Ruby Isle, King of Prussia, Headlights, The Show is The Rainbow, Folklore, Bunnygrunt, a new project featuring Bill Doss, Pete Erchick and Jon Fernandez from The Olivia Tremor Control, the debut of The Buddy System and more…) PLUS a full color comic with a mix of holiday themed madness and sweetness from Jesse Lockwood, Travis Fox, Rama Hughes, Lauren Gregg, Craig Sheldon, Nethie Lockwood, Ryan Lewis (hey, that’s me!), Mat Lewis & Maya Livio!! This is the finest Kindercore XMas release to date!

Here’s a few sneak peeks:
