First, a final mention about the huge success you all helped the band achieve at the record release party. Thanks to all who attended and helped make it so memorable for the band. The site will soon have some photos and potential video stream of some of the performances. Now, about this Saturday night...

Just a few days from the big show at Albion, located in Manhattan at 251 West 30th between 7th and 8th ave. This is an early start time with doors opening at 8:00 and Synthetic 16 hitting the stage at 8:30, so come down early and stick around for Crusade and Inhuman. This show is $10.00 with a pass and $15.00 without. The easiest way to get a pass is to get The Village Voice and cut it out or go to albionnyc.com and print it right off the website. There may even be some people lurking outside giving them out.

The band is adding new dates for the summer each week, so keep checking the website for any new info and updates. - Your Friends at synthetic sixteen

In order to facilitate the mailing lists members, if you reply between now and April 28th you will be put on a guest list and entry will be ABSOLUTELY GUARANTEED for you and your guests.(please try to keep guests to a reasonable minimum in order to meet the clubs maximum occupancy regulations). While this will be open to the general public and free admission will be given all night, the band wants to guarantee your admission and not have you shut out to over crowding. Those of you not familiar with Sin-e might not be aware of how small it is, so you might want to consider signing up if you can attend.

The night will feature special host Carmine Famiglietti, star of the upcoming feature film "LBS." and performances by Running like Thieves, Liquid Carousel, and Dopermien. With Dan from Dopermien as DJ for the entire evening playing cool music and a bunch of giveaways and promos and much more!

For more information please visit Synthetic 16 website: www.s16music.com.

Long time bassist Eric Gutman has left New York to pursue adventures in sunny California. Eric's contributions to the band are too vast to mention. Anyone who has seen a live S16 show knows how much he meant to the group. Warm thoughts and well wishes for Eric in all his future endeavors in California. With Eric's New York departure, a new chapter has now opened for bassist Tommy Guinan, formerly of Bower Hill. Tommy has some big shoes to fill, even though Eric has tiny feet.

After a long absence from recording a follow up to the band's debut album in 2001, Synthetic 16 are happy to report that the band is signing to GIG Records and will be releasing a brand new debut album of all newly written material this fall! This yet to be titled release is the fruit of all the hard work and dedication of the members as well as fans, family, and friends. For more info, please visit Gig Records at www.gigrecords.com.

For 3 weeks in July, Synthetic 16 will be playing a show called Rockstars NYC on Broadway. This is an amazing show that combines live rock music with modern and interpretive dance through the Core Movement Dance Project. This is a great opportunity to see Synthetic 16 on an extremely intimate and personal level in that we are playing some songs that we have never played live before. More news and info on how to buy tickets coming soon!

If you do not have our new Synthetic 16 4-song e.p., well then go to www.s16music.com and download 3 of the songs for free!
