SUNDAY EVENING AT THE STAR BAR IS THE PLACE TO BE

COLUMBIA HEIGHTS---The local talent of Louis Murphy, 1994 graduate of Chisago Lakes High School, is being showcased on Saturday, April 10 at the Star Bar, 4005 Central Ave. NE, Columbia Heights, Minn. Murphy’s singing and song-writing abilities will be shared with Two Eyes for the Dead, a four-piece rock band from Saint Paul, Minn. Started in 2005 as a purely improvisational experiment, this group has blended and grown into a band based on a solid, written song construction with a smattering of improvisations. Steve McPherson of the Pulse writes, “Two Eyes for the Dead take their cues from the darker end of the rock spectrum, citing goth-yet-melodic rockers: A Perfect Circle and Dredg along with everyone's favorite, Radiohead, as their prime influences. The live recordings offered on their MySpace page hint at inventive sonics, but my favorite part has to be their "Sounds Like" answer: "Tears of joy ,which are the same as sorrow." http://www.pulsetc.com/article.php?sid=2943
Starting at 9 p.m. with a cover charge of $5, you will experience the next sensation of the darker side of rock.

  2. Really Good job, my only negative comment would be that it wasn't as straigtforward as it could have been. A newspaper editor would have to read the whole paragraph to get the info instead of just glancing at it and knowing what it was.

  5. It's great that you added their influences. It gives me and other readers an idea of what we can expect from them. I'm a personal fan of APC and Radiohead, so you've managed to persuade me to check these guys out!

    * Great press release, Rosalie. You incorporate solid details, and pull in a quote from a reviewer to make this press release stellar.
