We are very, very excited to announce that our new album, Then The Morning Came, is finally finished and will be released in the Fall! We are also very excited to announce our CD Release Show at The First Avenue Mainroom on Saturday Oct 2! Tickets go on sale this Saturday, July 31 at noon and are $10 in advance, available online or at any First Avenue ticket location.

For more info www.first-avenue.com

We want to thank all of you who have supported us along the way- we couldn't have done it without you!

Also this week, Alexei & Channy head to France to perform as a duo at some music festivals, before returning home for our last shows of the summer, at The MN Zoo and State Fair's Heritage Square Stage. Both are great outdoor family-friendly events that will feature our full band.

TOUR VAN!!

Lastly, with the release of our new album, we will be touring around the region and now find ourselves in need of a van to go on tour - we're looking for a large mini van or a cargo van with seating for 6 people as well as all our music gear.

Anybody selling a van? If anyone you know has something that runs well and is interested in donating or selling it, please let us know at romadiluna@gmail.com]]> http://romadiluna.com/news.html#33 Mon, 26 Jul 2010 00:00:00 -0700 Then the Morning Came - Roma di Luna - News http://romadiluna.com/news.html#32

The duo (Channy & Alexei) will be heading to France for a couple different festivals. We were introduced to the French audience by the wonderful people at the Sur Siene Festival in Minnesota. We are eternally grateful as it has always been my dream to perform in France. This will be our second time performing in France as a duo and we hope we can bring the full band next time.

Alexei and I saw the Carolina Chocolate Drops 4 or 5 years ago when the Wild Goose Chase Cloggers (wildgoosechasecloggers.org) opened up for them at the Cedar. That performance is embedded deep in my "amazing performance" section of my memory. We are way more than excited to open for them at the MN Zoo on August 27th, 2010 and to hear them again.

A great line-up at the State Fair this year. So many stages and so many choices...we'll be at the Heritage Stage on September 5 & 6 for the "After Sundown" series. We would love to serenade your Sate Fair experience!

Also wanted to thank the great people in Duluth and The Sound Unseen Festival! We had a real good time playing for you and dancing the night away at soul night.]]> http://romadiluna.com/news.html#32 Tue, 15 Jun 2010 00:00:00 -0700 Then the Morning Came - Roma di Luna - News http://romadiluna.com/news.html#31 http://romadiluna.com/news.html#31 Fri, 15 Jan 2010 00:00:00 -0800 Then the Morning Came - Roma di Luna - News http://romadiluna.com/news.html#30 http://romadiluna.com/news.html#30 Sat, 02 Jan 2010 00:00:00 -0800 Then the Morning Came - Roma di Luna - News http://romadiluna.com/news.html#29

The Devil Walks
Roma di Luna, 2006.

The (Am)reel (E7)writes me another (Am)story
about the (Am)bullets that (E7)fly through the north (Am)country

(Dm)the mamas cry their (Am)lullabies
of (E7)another black son dead tonight

the (Am)streets are (E7)mourning this (Am)morning
the (Am)sewers flood with(E7) papa's (Am)blood
(Dm)And nobodies child is safe in this (Am)place
Where the (E7)devil kills just for the (Am)chase

Chorus:
(Dm)Bad news, I'm the bearer of (Am)bad news
(E7)Oh Lord tell me what we can I (Am)do

(Dm)Bad News, always bringing such (Am)bad news
Oh (E7)Lord, tell me what can I (Am)do

The (Am)devil walks, the (E7)devil is real to (Am)me
Even (Am)as I sing I can (E7)hear him gnashing his (Am)teeth
(Dm)I feel your hand I see your (Am)wall
You’ve (E7)locked him away and you will not let me (Am)fall

Chorus

I (Am)must admit love (E7)I am (Am)afraid
I (Am)cling to you but you (E7)often go (Am)away
(Dm)You are my sword, you are my (Am)shield
(E7)Dig us a well so I can be (Am)healed

This fall season Roma di Luna will be taking a break from performing in order to focus on our next studio recording and just taking it as easy as possible in general.
All the families of Roma di Luna band members will be happy to spend more quality time with their estranged musical partners (especially their babies) and I can now finally take up stick-widdling, the great American past-time.
Before we break, however, we have some exciting info to pass along:
1. Channy and Alexei Moon Casselle have been invited to take part in the ongoing Making Music series that is basically like an Inside the Actors Studio for musicians. We will be revealing our deepest, darkest secrets as well as displaying embarrassing childhood photos. Should be fun! For more info check out our Calendar).
2.We've already confirmed our X-Mas Eve Eve show again this year at our beloved Cedar Cultural Center so we hope you can make it to that special event as it will be our first performance in over three months.
3. Last but not least, in addition to working on our next full length album, we are hoping to also have a Christmas EP available at our holiday show and Channy and I are planning to collaborate with one of our dear friends and talented singer/songwriter for a stripped down home recording to appear at a time yet to be determined.

Well, that doesn't sound like too much of a break to me but it'll have to do for now.

All our best,

Roma di Luna]]> http://romadiluna.com/news.html#24 Thu, 13 Aug 2009 00:00:00 -0700 Then the Morning Came - Roma di Luna - News
