Disney Hall DVD, Acoustic Tour Dates..
Good morning,
A day in the studio: Guitars twang, keyboards pulse, the sound of repeated riffs waft maddeningly. We record. We discuss. We have long conversations about reverb..
We’re excited to announce the release of the documentary DVD All I Ever Wanted: Live From the Walt Disney Concert Hall on September 7th in North America and October 4th in Europe on Blu-Ray or Deluxe DVD/CD. It chronicles the lead-up and preparation for last December’s concert—the last of 354 shows in support of our first record—which involved a world-class string quartet, a children’s choir, a high school marching band, horn players, visual artists, and traditional Mexican folkórico dancers. It was an amazing experience for us, though we went a little bit crazy putting it on.
The film will be premiering in Europe at the Raindance Film Festival in London on September 30th. More info soon.
You can watch the trailer below or by clicking HERE:
In support of the film, we’ll be embarking on a limited North American tour with our good friends the Calder Quartet, who performed with us at the …

“Neda” now available on iTunes in the UK
Hello,
We’re excited to announce that our song “Neda” is now available for download on iTunes in the U.K. You can download it HERE, or by visiting the link below:
http://itunes.apple.com/gb/album/neda-single/id377233544
We wrote this song in remembrance of Neda Agha-Soltan, who was shot and killed on the streets of Tehran by a government militia group on June 20th of last year during a peaceful protest of the disputed Iranian presidential election.
Many others died that week and more were wrongfully imprisoned, beaten, tortured and executed in the year since.
All proceeds go to Amnesty International’s work on human rights around the world.
Watch the video HERE.
Show your support for human rights in Iran by uploading a photo of yourself holding a sign saying “I am Neda” at Nedaspeaks.org.
