The Future of Xerus
Hello Xerus fans!
I have an important update to notify all of you about.
After almost five years behind the kit with us,
our drummer Travis has decided to leave Xerus for personal reasons.
The band wishes him the best of luck on all of his future endeavours.
As sad as we are to see Travis go, thats how the music business
goes at times and there is no time to waste.
We have had a tremendous year and hope to capitalize
on all of the hard work we have done.
Our main focus now is to find a drummer and record
our next CD with a tour to follow asap.
A little bit about us and where we are headed:
Our overall goal is to gain a national fan base
while using the Internet and touring as means of financial stability.
Most of us know that releasing Cd's is not the best
way to make money in this business.
With the slow inevitable death of that medium
it has opened up the doors for us and every artist to release
music in new and unique ways.
Record labels as we know it are almost dead and practically
everyone is accessible through the Internet.
Through our college radio campaign and playing the
Red Gorilla Music fest during South by Southwest
we have set the ground work for a national audience.
Now its time to capitalise on this by doing those things again
(and much more) with the next CD and then extensive touring behind it.
We have transportation and connections throughout
the nation so its just a matter of putting in the work
that needs to be done and making it happen.
As far as what we are looking for in a drummer:
A highly motivated and high energy individual
who is ready to make a career out of music.
Our ideal candidate will be willing to put in the time
and money it takes to get the name and sound of Xerus
into every set of ears all over the world.
We are proud of the songs we create and are serious
about making this a career.
Musically were looking for someone who wants
to do whats right for the song.
Please check out our myspace and our website for a sample
of past songs and to get an idea of what we sound like.
I can get you a CD of newer stuff and live tracks as well.
I also wanted to take a moment and thank
each and everyone of you who have seen us live,
bought a Cd or not turned the station when we come on!
We appreciate each and everyone of you out there
and you are the main reason we keep on keepin' on.
We hope that you all will continue to support us
and are as excited as we are for this new phase of Xerus!
Thank you.
Thank you very much.
