Adventures in Japan

As you probably remember, Braddigan and Rey traveled to Japan in June to support the import of Watchfires by Tower Records.  Before the trip, the band put out the blitz to friends and family stateside that they were looking for friends and family in Japan, and the response was overwhelming.  They got on the plane with three shows scheduled and came home six days later having played nine shows!

The Band

Some of you had the chance to catch the band last spring, but we wanted to make it official today.  The long-awaited day has come and Braddigan has found the dream band.  You all know Rey, hailing from Puerto Rico via New York City on percussion, and its with an ear to ear grin that we welcome Tiago, hailing from Brazil via Hawaii and now California on bass, to the family.  Come see the band on the road this fall, or plan a show at your high school, college, community group, church or backyard!

Walking on Water

Steelroots TV Show

Braddigan was on location with the Steelroots TV crew and a collection of professional surfers in Nicaragua shooting footage for a reality TV show series that will air this fall. You’ll see some amazing waves, jam sessions, world cup style soccer with orphans, a trip into a trash dump community, and through it all witness the forming of friendships that will last a lifetime.

Invisible Children

In April, Braddigan played a benefit show to raise awareness for an activist group called Invisible Children outside of Pittsburg, PA. The next day he flew to Los Angeles to meet up with our good friend, Tyrone Wells, and together they joined over 200,000 people nation-wide on behalf of Invisible Children to participate in the Global Night Commute in honor of the nightly walks to safe quarters by the children of northern Uganda.

Featured Friend: Tyrone Wells

Tyrone Wells is currently featured in a blog and with a song on Braddigan’s MySpace page. This is one name you should get used to hearing!  An amazing talent, dedicated musician and humanitarian, Tyrone Wells is a “hear it now” phenomenon.  He joined Braddigan on a trip to La Chureca in Nicaragua in July and will be touring the country all fall. Soon we'll be announcing shows in Texas and Colorado with Tyrone Wells this winter!
