Side FX Band

Getting Ready for the Next Leg

Sun, 7 Mar 2010 00:00:00

I just realized that our next leg of the tour starts in a couple of weeks. I am so not ready! This week was hectic - first an interview with the lovely Krystina at WFIT, then a TV show at Sofa, topped off with a performance in Brooklyn.

We are Back!

Fri, 26 Feb 2010 00:00:00

I cannot believe we are back already. It was a crazy couple of weeks, 12 cities - all snowy (except for Austin), all smiles. Last night, we went to Harrisburg, Virginia to appear on their Thursday Live show WXJM.

Tour Day #8

Thu, 18 Feb 2010 00:00:00

My eyes are so sleepy. We definitely have pushed it hard the last two days. After leaving Dallas and arriving mid way to Lincoln at 430AM - we played our hearts out that evening in Lincoln. Following the gig, we got a total of 4 hours sleep - just in time to drive back down south to Wichita, Kansas.

Our Valentine's Day Tour Stop

Sun, 14 Feb 2010 00:00:00

We are almost in Houston as I type this blog. Last night, the band finally went out, letting down our hair in Austin, Texas. We hit 6 clubs in a matter of 2 hours, catching various local musicians showing off their stuff.

Off to Birmingham

Thu, 11 Feb 2010 00:00:00

We just finished our Atlanta tour stop. We left a bit early to miss the 2 feet of snow in Washington, DC and headed south. Once we arrived, we all felt like we had come home. It is true what they say about the south and their hospitality.

The Tour Begins

Thu, 4 Feb 2010 00:00:00

I made it back from the Grammy's (pictures are on kimcameronmusic.com) in time to finish the final touches for the tour! The tour is called "It's Your Turn" and is based around a theme that it's now YOUR turn (the collective 'you') to do something special - whether that involves giving back to your community or loved one,

To the Grammy's

Sun, 24 Jan 2010 00:00:00

This past week, I ventured up to New York City and performed on the Joey Reynold's show. So many things happened this week. Brandon Ruckdashel and I were supposed to perform at a small venue in New York City BEFORE Joey's Show however, the place was shut down the morning of our show!

Off to New York

Tue, 19 Jan 2010 00:00:00

Matt and I are off to New York City to hook up with the actor Brandon Ruckdashel. We are performing a small acoustic set in the lower east side. It just sounded like a great time! Then, I am off to the Joey Reynold's show again.

Cities Announced!

Sun, 10 Jan 2010 00:00:00

Tour dates and locations are now being announced for the It's Your Turn tour. Locations include Austin, Houston, Dallas and Lincoln, Nebraska so far. All dates and locations will be announced on www.sidefxband.net - shows tab.

Happy New Year!

Sat, 2 Jan 2010 00:00:00

New Year's Eve at the Gaylor was so much fun! I believe there were 5000 people at the Resort. We were lucky to have a somewhat smaller room to perform in so we could see everyone fully dressed in their party hats.

Last Week of 2009

Sun, 27 Dec 2009 00:00:00

I cannot believe this year is almost over! When I reflect on what we have accomplished, it brings a smile to my face. However, I am even more excited about the coming year - which will be the best yet! So buckle up! First, our latest Music Video is UP UP UP!

Veterans Adminisration News & WOCM 98.1 FM

Sun, 13 Dec 2009 00:00:00

I was able to talk Hunter Bevis into a short interview with me on the VA News Channel this past weekend. Matt and I played our newest song: Rainy Days and Mondays. This picture is with Hunter, show host and the producer! They will air the show before Christmas. The guys were soooo nice. I loved every minute. This week we are off to Ocean City to perform on 98.1 FM. Cannot wait!!!!

New Album!

Thu, 10 Dec 2009 00:00:00

We have finally finished the new album! Wow, what a year! It is now at the printers. You can see the preview of the cover with this blog, but the actual making of the cover shot will be in a video diary due out next week. It will surprise you!

A Little Sunshine

Mon, 30 Nov 2009 00:00:00

Some of us need to take some time at the beach....really. Now, I realize it may seem a bit of a hardship, but I am willing to do the work!

More Magazine!

Sun, 22 Nov 2009 00:00:00

It finally came out! Almost 1 year ago, I was interviewed by this wonderful woman, Aileen Jacobson, a NY writer, for the national publication More Magazine. She had finished the article last May, but the magazine said they wanted to wait.

Back from LA!

Tue, 17 Nov 2009 00:00:00

What a very fast trip - and busy. First, John DePatie, Matt and I performed at the Genghis Cohen on Thursday night. Then, I was joined by actors: Jon Paul Tilleman, Branden Roth,Philip Asta, Emmanuel Zepeda, Mark Williams, as well as, Director Colin Orr who shot the newest music video!

Walter Reed & Los Angeles

Sun, 8 Nov 2009 00:00:00

This week, given all of the Fort Hood horribleness, we are thankfully celebrating Veteran's Day at Walter Reed. We are starting our week off at Eagle 97.7FM on Monday early morning in Delaware then heading back

November is Full of Surprises

Sun, 1 Nov 2009 00:00:00

Today, we re-shot the 'My Hero' video. To say it was cold...well, an understatement. We wanted to update the video with the Actual Soldier who provided us with the story.

Last Week of October

Sun, 25 Oct 2009 00:00:00

We finally were able to put together the footage from our UNC trip. What a great day! Here's the video link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YwYN8poA6Gs

So Many Pictures

Sun, 18 Oct 2009 00:00:00

We finished our photo shoot on Saturday -- the hardest part was not laughing!!!! Nik and Matt were so funny, I had a hard time being serious in photos.

Sunday Afternoon In Front of the TV

Sun, 11 Oct 2009 00:00:00

...or at least cameras. Half of the band decided to join the first "Middle Sunday's Variety Show" on Sunday, October 11th at the New Deal Cafe in Maryland. The locals were great fun and, well, the food smelled great!

Off to North Carolina

Mon, 5 Oct 2009 00:00:00

As we get ready to head down south, Kim will be hitting the air on Hawkstream radio on Wednesday afternoon. UNC Wilmington - we have heard - is the best campus on the east coast....

A Weekend of Laughs

Mon, 28 Sep 2009 00:00:00

Murphy's was great fun. Our new album was well received by the fans--as we tested out the new stuff! We had a little dancing, a little drink and came home very late!

Southern Maryland Here We Come

Sun, 20 Sep 2009 00:00:00

I finally received the pictures back from the photo shoot...Nik does not like them at all. Now, I have taken some votes, and well, no one agrees with his assessment...yet.

New York Fashion Week

Mon, 14 Sep 2009 00:00:00

Just returned back from New York's Fashion week. Great fun fun fun. Started out at Brooklyn Royalty's show and moved on to the Luca Luca show. This is a picture of actor Brandon Ruckdashel who escorted me to the show.

We shot another music performance for the Pentagon Channel - look for it on September 1st! We also headed north to the Fair.

Wine and Music!

Tue, 11 Aug 2009 00:00:00

Many of us already know the connection between wine and music, but for those of us who have yet to experience it, we developed a little video to get the point across.

Tired!

Sun, 2 Aug 2009 00:00:00

Yesterday, great weather, great people, fun gig! We shot a live video with 500 of our closest friends at the Tarara Winery.

Shoes and Fun

Mon, 27 Jul 2009 00:00:00

Eric and I did this quick little interview this week. So many people have asked what we have been up to, so, I thought this might give people a little bit of an insight.

A Little Distraction

Mon, 20 Jul 2009 00:00:00

I was a bit inspired by Kim's blog last week and I thought, maybe I should jump on the train with my own flavors of summer loves.

Best of Summer

Mon, 13 Jul 2009 00:00:00

Nik and I finished our first live TV show this weekend. Nantucket, of course, was perfect. I was so taken by the weather, I thought it would be fun to write a bit about summer.

Off to Nantucket

Mon, 6 Jul 2009 00:00:00

This week, off to Nantucket to perform on Plum TV! I simply cannot wait. Something about the air on that wonderful little island.

Mon, 29 Jun 2009 00:00:00

What a Week!

Sun, 21 Jun 2009 00:00:00

We shot our 4th video this week at the beach. We finished mixing our next song. We played at Hard Rock Cafe and finished the week playing at the French Embassy. No wonder I am tired!

Off to the Beach!

Mon, 15 Jun 2009 00:00:00

Don't Let Summer End

Mon, 25 May 2009 00:00:00

I know summer has just begun, but I this is my favorite time of the year - and I just want it to last forever. As we finish up our 19th song (Broken Heart), I find myself beginning to write number 20 this past weekend.

I Love Summer

Sun, 17 May 2009 00:00:00
The weather was fantastic on the Eastern shore. While the crowd was not what we or anyone expected....

Someone Special

Tue, 12 May 2009 00:00:00

Every once in awhile, you meet someone special. I had the pleasure of meeting someone like that - someone who I was able to reconnect with after 1.5 years. I need to tell you this story, because it is an amazing one.
