A Rebuilt Family Christmas
It truly is the most wonderful time of the year. Well, it's our
favorite at least. The time when we get the extended Rebuilt family
together for some serious decking of the halls and to have Linus
remind us about the true meaning of Christmas. Last year, this was a
special evening, and it really emphasized all the good and great
things music and musicians have to offer our culture. We sincerely
hope you'll consider joining us for this year's edition. Expect some
of your favorite Christmas songs -and probably some you've never heard
of.
Here are the details:
When: Thursday, December 4th, 2008
Where: The Melting Point, 295 E. Dougherty St., Athens, GA 30601
Time: Doors open at 6pm (as does the kitchen) with music beginning at
8pm
Cost: $5 advance/$8 at the door. Advance tickets are available from

donation, you'll receive a special limited edition sampler featuring
songs from all of the evening's performers!
Hope to see you on the 4th!
Some Nice Things to Say
Recently, some folks have had nice things to say about Rebuilt, our
artists, and our releases. Here's the latest:
Label profile - Southeast Performer Magazine
Reviews of Paul's Winter's Over and Natalie's Short Stories in
Southeast Performer
Review of Jon's Goodbye Golden Age on Americana UK and WayCoolMusic
Reviews of Jason's the.brokenheadphones, David's Into Danger, and
Micah's Pawn Shop on the Phantom Tollbooth.
Jonathan Rich Finishing Up Double EP
Begun over a year ago, Jonathan Rich's double EP, Good & Evil, is
nearing completion and is aiming for a January release. Comprised of
two EPs on one disc, the acoustic Holiday and the rocking We Are Far
Too Easily Pleased, the first 300 copies will be the kind of limited
edition-type things we like to do around here at Rebuilt. You know,
individually numbered, handmade & hand-packed, full of goodies, etc.
You get the idea. We'll have more info as details are firmed, but you
can be among the first to hear the Holiday track "Love" on the Rebuilt
Family Sampler available at the Family Christmas show. And as I'm
typing out this update, I just got a rough mix from Jonathan's rock
recording sessions... ummm... tasty.
Good Ideas for Gifts
And though we're completely skipping over Thanksgiving, we're going to
go ahead and shamelessly remind you that Rebuilt Records has an online
store fully stocked with wonderful albums, stickers, and t-shirts that
make wonderful gifts this holiday season. We recently got some
spankin' new Micah Dalton t-shirts from his Fall tour, but we've only
got a handful, so grab yours now!
And Finally...
Though not a Rebuilt release, Jason's powerpop side project, the Warm
Fuzzies, is set to unveil their debut EP (entitled the Bubblegum EP)
on Tuesday, December 2nd. The official release party will be that
night at the Caledonia here in Athens with Mass Solo Revolt, Farewell
Flight, and our very own Jonathan Rich joining in the fun. The disc is
packaged in a very eco-friendly arigato pak (just like Natalie's Short
Stories disc) and features a comic strip liner note insert and A
SCRATCH AND SNIFF DISC THAT SMELLS LIKE (WHAT ELSE?) BUBBLEGUM. You
can stream the EP and pre-order your copy now at thewarmfuzzies.com.
That's it for now - see you on the 4th!
