Bio
The Brooklyn Tea Party is located in Bushwick, Brooklyn. We are now two people and the occasional border. We make, record, produce, engineer, write, arrange, and support music. We have parties for our friends in the city and from out of town, fun get-togethers for people we love and respect. This is not a big fancy rock club for huge roving gangs of strangers to wreak havoc. We can't make you famous, but we can share our warmth with you. We ask for a donation to help support the acts and give a little extra to the touring folks. Here are some ground rules we'd like you to follow at shows: .... 1. Pay the Bands.. 2. Respect each other.. 3. Don't drink what you didn't buy (w/o asking).. 4. Smoke outside, drink inside.. 5. Don't fuck up our stuff (materialist as it may seem, we like our house and we like having parties, and would hate to not have either)... 6. Please help keep our neighbors happy and don't hang out in the hallway or stairwell!.... ..The Brooklyn Tea Party back line:.... .. Gretsch Catalina Club 4 peice kit (inlcudes hardware and Ziljian or Sabian cymbals).. Peavy TKO 115 bass amp (on loan to us from Eric Wolfson).. 1960 Werlitzer Electric Piano Model 700.. Yamaha Motif-8 (88 keys keyboard).. 2 Fender Deluxe guitar amps .. Roland KC 300 keyboard amp (on loan to us from Creaky Boards).... Bands are welcome to use any and all of these tools for shows.... PA system:.. Digi 002 with pro-tools, plus Focusrite Octopre.. 16 inputs.. our mains are 2 JBL PRX512MI 12" Two Way Powered Speaker.. .. please contact us for recording studio information as well!.. ..watch: Creaky Boards "I Cannot Love You" July 4th Secktacular...... .. .. .. .. .. ...... .... .. Sign up for email notices about upcoming gatherings:.. email:.. .... Powered by ..NotifyList.com........ ..watch: Elizabeth Devlin "Gatsby's Song"...... .. .. .. .. .. ........HOW WE PICK WHO PLAYS HERE- ..If you want to play here, you should be our friend. Not just our myspace friend! We schedule all of our performances proactively, meaning solicitations from bands we don't know aren't likely to turn into performances. The best way to get into the Brooklyn Tea Party is to come to our parties and hang out, and also, to be musically outstanding!!! We only do two parties per month, either on a Friday or Saturday night. Music starts at 8PM, and ends at 1am. Sharp. The party may go on a bit longer. Space is limited, both onstage and off. ......watch: Shilpa Ray (of Beat The Devil) "Shine In Exile"...... .. .. .. .. .. ......More questions? Contact us at ..brooklynteaparty@gmail.com... There's a slim chance that messages sent to this myspace will garner responses. We WILL write back if you email us. .. .. ..watch: Brook Pridemore "Snakes On My Brain".... .. .. .. .. .. ........watch: Pat The Bunny "Free and Alone"...... .. .. .. .. .. ..
