Jul 11, 2010 Recording, Shows, Video
It’s been awhile since our last post, but wanted to let everyone know we’re working hard on the next release from The Whitehalls -- due out this fall!
We’re in the final stages of mixing and we can truly say this is our most ambitious & exciting release to date.
In between studio sessions we also managed to skip out to another great show by Karmacoda, our producer B’s amazing band, last Friday at Harlot in San Francisco.
Also check out this awesome video for Skylines from Karmacoda:
Directed by Luis Otavio Feldens, Produced by John Vasicek
Skylines is the second single and video from the Karmacoda album Illuminate. The video, directed by San Francisco-based director and animator Luis Otavio Feldens features a stunning combination of digital still photography and high definition, full-motion video.
It’s incredible…enjoy!

The Whitehalls & SVR Rocks raise over $27K for Music in Schools Today!
Dec 31, 2009 Know the Band, Shows
Earlier this month The Whitehalls were asked to participate in a benefit at GAMH doing a little to give back to Music and Music Education.
I’m pleased to report that the Silicon Valley Rocks Benefit raised more than $27,000 for Music In Schools Today!
We had a great time playing this show and it’s fantastic to see that the effort of all the bands, sponsors, and people involved in pulling this off had a nice result.

The Whitehalls will be playing the Silicon Valley Rocks! benefit on Wednesday, December 9 at the Great American Music Hall in San Francisco.
And there are 3 damn fine reasons we should see you there:

Silicon Valley Rocks! 2009 brings together the Valley’s tech community to raise money for Music in Schools Today (MuST), a Bay Area non-profit that seeks to rescue music programs from budget cuts.
2) Hear new songs from our recently recorded 2nd CD…
The Whitehalls have been busy in the recording studio and will play almost entirely new material for this show!
3) We will make it worth your while!
