More shows added!

Added on by UNWND.

Holy Moly! Due to overwhelming demand, we've added additional dates in every city of our 2023 tour. Pre-sale is still on, CORPSEPOSE works as a promo code, and we caught a few scalpers in the process so more tickets will be added soon. Tickets are officially on sale Friday, so more will open up at 9am PDT, 12pm EDT. (If CORPSEPOSE isn't working, it's cuz the presales are sold out... gulp!)

As many of you already know, we lost our friend, brother and bandmate Vern Rumsey on August 5th. We just wanted to thank everybody for the well wishes and very nice messages that were sent our way. We also want to say condolences to you…in the small world of music we have lived in, he made a great impact with his masterful and beautiful bass playing— really a gifted and natural force so unique and unusual in our sphere. It’s a hard and bitter loss. We were so young when we were together as a band and the thought of middle age was so far away and almost a joke…it was just too soon, too soon. Thanks amigo and an even better, righteous pathway to you.

We are working on a more full form tribute to Vern to be published on our website. Stay tuned: we will let you know.

Get some original Unwound art and support the ACLU

ZAK SALLY PEEL SESSION UNWOUND DRAWING OUTTAKES/ CHEAP and half to the ACLU

 

dear unwound fans: this is zak sally. i was in bands, i make comics, etc etc etc. i did the drawings for the Peel Session included in Numero’s final box set, EMPIRE. when Justin (or Sara, i can’t remember) emailed and said “you wanna do the art?!?!” i thought not only HELL YES (because i love those guys, and that band) but also: "THIS IS GOING TO BE A CAKE WALK, i could draw Unwound in my sleep!!”

 

boy was i wrong. i did, like, SEVENTY drawings of those 3, trying to get it right. it drove me fucking nuts and i cursed their names. yes, it’s embarrassing. but let my embarrassment be your ARTISTIC WINDFALL. 

 

a lot of these drawings are kind of great, and i’d rather people HAVE them than they sit in my flat file gathering dust. so what i did is made sets of 4 drawings each (one each of Sara and Vern, and 2 of Justin. not because i love him more, but because i could NOT get his damn face right, so i’ve got twice as many of him...). some of them are real loose and gestural, some are detailed illustrations, some are ink, some are pencil, some are white on black paper, it’s all over the map. i tried to give a nice mix in each set. but they are mostly pretty big and there is some damn nice stuff in there if i do say so myself. there’s at least one in each set that’d be a $100 drawing if i was asking freelance prices. so here’s what we’re doing (with Unwound’s blessing, naturally):

 

THERE ARE 11 SETS IN ALL.

I’m asking $45 for each set (of 4 drawings), + $7 postage, shipped to you in a tube (if you're overseas, let me know, might be a bit more), so

$52 in all

HALF OF THE PROCEEDS WILL BE DONATED TO THE ACLU

because we are staring at a daily nightmare that smells a hell of a lot like fascism, and it is far, far beyond fucked.

 

so:

FIRST ELEVEN PEOPLE TO SEND ME $52 GET THEM. send to 

orders@lamano21.com

and, should you for any reason want to pay more, the extra goes straight to ACLU, not split with me. make sense?

stay well everyone, and be safe out there. its real dark.

best, zak.

Howdy folks,

Just a head's up on the site. We aren't being very active with the archive now. There's still stuff to add but currently we are busy with our lives. No need to live in the past! Check the "Now" page for links to what we are doing these days, including new recordings and performances from our current projects. We still post on social media so you can follow us there too.

Thanks again for checking out the site.
