Montezuma Tonic Machine

     Hello all, we're officially on the other side of our Midwest extravaganza. Special thanks go out to John Sloan (Mercy Academy), Abby Vice, and Eric Meyers (Ford Theatre Reunion) for putting us up and for the shenanigans that ensued. The fine folks at the Charlie Tonic Hour had some very kind words to say about our gig in Lexington. Check out Episode 54 of their podcast as well as this write up that Ginny did about us!

We have a few more shows in the works for y'all, some in town and some out of town. Kickstarter incentives are also being sent out, we're still working on a few of the bigger items (posters, mugs etc) so stay posted. The last sessions for the record have also been booked, it feels good to be approaching the end of this phase of the process of making the album happen.

Our next show is in Nashville at the End on January 12th with our buddies Bear in the Campsite, Grooveshire (Cincinnati, OH), and Scott Fernandez


Stay tuned y'all

Peace, Love, and The New England Patriots,

Montezuma November Update Machine

Hello! It's been a while since the previous update but the Bunker now has a new router!

Quick recap of recent events: 
We played Funksgiving at the Walnut House in Murfreesboro, TN with our good buddies the Funkonauts and Chattanooga's Smooth Dialects. Kelly Kelso took some rad pictures of us that you can check out HERE!

 Merch has also been ordered, in a few short weeks we'll have shirts, lighters, koozies, and a fresh batch of stickers for y'all. 

And finally...



Tracking of the new record has begun! We're working with Jason Dietz of Twin Oak Production based out of Murfreesboro. Jason current plays around in a group called the Hardin Draw who are pretty rad and has also tracked great acts like Joe Buck (aka Joe Buck Yourself) and Scott Fernandez (our close friend and 12 string bass extraordinaire). Drums and bass are finished with the goal of having all of the tracking wrapped up before we break for Christmas. 

When we get back from doing Christmas things in South Carolina, Pennsylvania, and elsewhere, we're doing a few quick dates on the road and capping it off with a New Years Eve celebration at everyone's favorite bar in Franklin, the Pond! We'll be joined be Deep Fried Five and the Funkonauts, come get weird with us!

We'll keep you guys posted on the rest of those late December dates as well as other things we have in the works for 2013. 

Cheers!

Montezuma Midwest Recap Machine

Hello all, we're on the other side of three incredible days on the road in Lexington, Indianapolis, and Chicago. We here at MFM Incorporated like to give credit where credit's due, so we'd like to say THANK YOU to the following people/places/things:

  • The Past for putting us up in Lexington
  • Momma Kelso for hooking us up with a hotel room for two nights in Chicago
  • The Rock House Cafe in Indianapolis for taking such good care of a group on the road
  • Miqui Gutierrez for stepping in and absolutely killin' it on Tenor Sax
  • Anyone who bought a CD or had kind words to say about our music, y'all kept us going.
We filmed the sets in Indianapolis and Chicago so keep your ear to the ground for videos from both of those shows. Playing for everyone this weekend was a blast! Our next task is making this record happen, we'll keep y'all posted.

Te Amo
