Yesterday we had a great event at Bite the Hand Studios to bring attention to The Underground Free Press! It was great! We had three computers set up for people to explore what TUFP is up to, and we had lots of live music. The Semi-Evolved Simians, Bill Wild, Mark Growden, Batman Versus Predator, The Highlands, Hannah Simone, Hanna Manfredi, and Andrew Maurer and more performed! There was also drumming and jamming in the backyard and Food Not Bombs food for everyone!

This was Bite the Hand’s first official “sounding,” and event that pairs local artists wit local activists. Yesterday we were celebrating and exploring the amazing things that The Underground Free Press is doing to strengthen the music scene in Sonoma County. Together with groups like The Underground Free Press, Operation Venue, Lost Lamp, Buildings Building Themselves, and others, we are really beginning to transform out community into something very powerful. This is a really good thing, folks.

Dave and Jay are two people working to make Sonoma County a better place to live. They have created an organization called “The Underground Free Press” that serves as a hub for local artists to meet and publicize their shows. Bite the Hand Productions is in full support of their mission of strengthening our cultural scene, and we want to share what they do with more people.

Their goal is to publish a monthly paper that focuses on local music.  They currently have a very efficient website where you can post and view shows by city. Check it out here: The Underground Free Press Online

The Underground Free Press is working with The Semi-Evolved Simians are putting on an all-day event this Sunday at Bite the Hand Studios (935 Spencer Street in Santa Rosa)! Come and learn more about The Underground Free Press while listening to great local music. Suggested donation of $4. Call 326-5274 for more details.
