Kansas City, It was Real.......

Hello again EC Fans. We are now deep into summer and the heat has just been brutal here in Texas. This past week we performed at Down Under to another great crowd that was looking to cool off with some cold drinks and great dance beats. Emerald City also has another road trip in the books, this time to the land of Dorothy and Toto, Kansas City. We performed at a corporate fundraiser out in Edgerton, Kansas at a beautiful horse farm there. We have a video to share with you below. We got caught in a pretty good storm at the tail end of the show but the crowd loved every minute of our infectious beats and sounds. We look forward to returning next month for another great event.
This week we have just one public show at Sambuca 360 on Thursday and the last performance was a complete sellout. Our suggestion to you is to arrive early if you want to get a seat. Otherwise, you are SRO.....Come bring in the weekend with us a this beautiful hotspot in North Dallas. Emerald City Band, Don't threaten us with a good time baby! Chow!

Emerald City Road Trip-St. Louis

Hello EC Fans, we made it back from another road trip. This time we visited the grand midwest city of St. Louis, MO. We performed for a beautiful wedding event held at the famous Grand Union Station Hall. This facility used to be the old rail station that everyone came through in the early 1900's when crossing the country. The artistic work and brass work in this place is just exquisite. The warm hospitality that we received was just great and the party was just over the top. We could not have asked for a better audience as the dancing just went on all night long. We celebrated Billy's birthday afterwards at the famous Maggie O' Briens down the street where we proceeded to let the shots flow....some more than others. Ha!

Now that we are back, we prepare for our only public show this Thursday at Down Under in Frisco, then it is off to Fort Worth for a private event and then again back on the road, this time to Kansas City for a huge private event there. We will keep you posted on more EC happenings, until then, here is a short video from our last performance on Friday at Cape Buffalo as well as some pictures from St. Louis. Enjoy EC Fans and see you all soon.

Back By Popular Demand Announcement!!!!!

Hey there EC Fans, another great weekend gone by and two awesome public shows that were just simply packed out. Sullivan's Ringside on Thursday and Cape Buffalo on Friday. We received so many emails and phone messages from disappointed fans that were not able to get in and we sincerely apologize for the inconvenience. If you missed either of them, here is some breaking news for you!

*Special Encore Performance By Popular Demand*

Because we were not able to accommodate a lot of our fans at these venues at the last pair of sold out shows, we have been asked by management to come back and do it all over again. It took some doing, but we pulled it off and now you have a very rare back to back week of Emerald City shows at these two popular North Dallas live music venues.
Make your plans now and make sure to get there early. This will probably never happen again as our schedule does not allow for this. Don't miss out!

Thursday August 5--Sullivan's Ringside--8:30-12:30--Limited Seating--First Come/First Serve
Friday August 6--Cape Buffalo--9:30-1:30--Call to Reserve a Table or Party Room-Limited Seating Available

Saturday August 7 we head to St. Louis for a big private event and we always have great pics and video stories from the road to share with you. Make sure to check back here on Emerald City Behind the Curtain because it's the only place we share this stuff with you, our awesome fans. See you next week!!!!

This Week's EC TV!

Here's Deno with this week's schedule and Clay Pritchard melting faces with a killer sax solo!

Well, another great weekend in Emerald City world. Two great public shows and the crowds were just incredible. You know, it never gets old hearing that. Our fans are simply the best. You never let us down. Thursday at Down Under in Frisco was so much fun. It was as if you guys did not want the party to end. Shonna and Donovan and Lyn simply just tore it up and the horns and rhythm section could not have been more on. What a killer recipe for creating the perfect dance storm.

Thanks to Sherry and Matthew Wilder for supplying the much needed cold adult beverages as the temperature rose quickly with all that fun on the dance floor.

Friday night was a special show for our friends that own Cape Buffalo. Their sister venue Wizards in Richardson was the site for the Lady GaGa after party and man was this place just rocking! We have not performed there in years and it was as if we never left. The staff was so hospitable and the owners made sure that the Troublemaker horn section were put in just the right mood to make sure that everyone had a great time.

This week we have two public shows so get your rest and bring it out; we are expecting you!

Make sure to visit our website and get on our weekly newsletter list for updates and special event news and promos. Don't miss out on all the fun. see you in the papers..........Chow!

This Week in EC News

Hey there EC Fans, we had two great shows this past week. Thursday at Sambuca 360 was incredible. This show had the largest attendance this venue has seen yet and we left them wanting more. We then took the show down the tollway to Cape Buffalo on Friday night. Now if you were not there, you missed what can only be described as the mother of all Cape Buffalo shows. Parking was insane as cars were being parked blocks away just to get to this joint. The wait to get in was not too bad but once inside, this was the party to be at.

As one EC fan says:

"I saw you guys at Cape Friday night. Biggest crowd I have seen there in years!! Loved it!! See you again soon. Keep doing your thing!!"

--Kandy Brown-Aubert
