Strange times these days. All our Luv to everyone out there. We're alive and kicking, safe and sanitized... Desperation Alley turned ten so we mastered it. Now streamable everywhere or pay what you want to download it from Bandcamp. We truly can't thank you enough for helping us to sing our weird songs for this long.  Our newest recorded music has been stuck in quarantine like the rest of us, but will be out in 2021. Even newer tunes bubbling outta this old brain presently. Absolutely cannot wait to play live shows again where we can sweat and slobber freely with real flesh and bone. See you on the other side.

Hey! HEY! We're on the road. Check out our dates in the SHOWS section. More on the way soon! Also the pre-order for Luv Hungry [part 1] is up on the merch page
 

JULY 2014

The new VIVA LE VOX record is DONE!! It's called LUV HUNGRY. It was written over the last three years as one continuous piece of music divided into sixteen separate songs, and will be released in two parts this fall on limited edition CDs followed by a vinyl release with the whole shebang on it in the winter. All the releases will feature art work by our friend MATTY GOLDSTEIN who did our Dirt For Sale cover and liner art. 
 
It was recorded, mixed, and mastered at HaloHorn Studios in Traverse City, Mi with Andy Van Guilder... who some of you may know as Rachel Brooke's drummer and/or brother! Special thanks to Rachel and Brooks Robbins and Andy for always making us feel at home up there. Rachel and Brooks also contributed special vocal performances for the album. I'll be putting bits and pieces of the record up on the website between now and the release, while we put everything together, but if you want first looks or exclusive goodies please join the mailing list. Mailing list subscribers get all the cool stuff... they even saw the vinyl cover already... You can sign up right here:

BUT WAIT! That's not all. There's still even more news... while I was up in Michigan I also got to record some guitar tracks for Rachel and Brooks' project called Modern Mal! They have some beautiful songs they are getting ready to release. Follow the link to their facebook page or to Rachel's site to keep up on that!

And to keep with the theme of new records... Viva Le Vox's long lost brother Paultergeist just launched his kickstarter to put out his new music. It's awesome! I heard it... and even got to play and sing on a couple songs. His new band is called Que Lastima and you can get to their kickstarter by clicking here.

 V.L.V. gets back on the road in August. All the dates are up in our SHOWS section. We'll be ending that run at Muddy Roots Music Festival in Cookeville, TN! It's a hell of a festival, if you don't know that already. They have their full schedule and line up posted here. Hope to see you there or somewhere in between!

LUV,

Tony
