Rheme Cleo will be back and introducing a whole new set of music for their fans. Be sure to come out and support the band at Pittsburgh’s premier blues mecca, Moondog’s. The band has been working hard and has added some new original material, along with some killer cover material.

The Nied’s Hotel Band will be performing earlier, and RC will hit the stage at about 10:30.

See you there!

In conjunction with their good friend, filmmaker Frank Ferraro, RC is currently working on their first music video. After much deliberation, they have chosen to perform ‘I’m Gone’ as their debut video release.

The initial thought is that the video will be very conceptual and full of imagery, leading the viewer down a different path than may be taken with only the music to guide them. Pre-production for the video began in December, and the video projected release date is approximately April.

Frank is an incredible artist, and has produced numerous art exhibits around Pittsburgh and across the country. He currently is focusing in performance art and the media arts.

After it’s inaugural date, CorbriwoodStock I was a huge success! Over 100 close friends of the performing bands witnessed the first of a series of annual events. The gloom of rain and overall bad weather threatened, but by the 12PM kick-off, the skies cleared, and the bands provided the groove for the rest of the day.
James, The Devil’s Oxide, The Nied’s Hotel Band, and The Businessmen all performed along with Rheme Cleo. Jimmy Mac even assembled an All-Star Blues Jam, which was a Who’s Who of players in the tri-state area.

Stay tuned…CorbriwoodStock II is tentatively planned for Labor Day weekend 2009. 2009 marks the 40th anniversary of the original Woodstock festival, and the theme will be in play at this year’s CorbriwoodStock event! Mark your calendars now!

We all remember the disaster of the June 13 Racetrack gig, right? We all remember that Rheme Cleo looked a Westmoreland County Microburst square in the eye and walked out unscathed(mostly). And any band in their right mind would not tempt fate again, right?

Yeah….right!

Never ones to let a close brush with death, or at least a close brush with being Wizard-of-Oz’d across the highway, get in their way, Rheme Cleo will again take on the Pittsburgh raceway Park in New Alexandria on Friday, August 8.

Come out and check the band out between races and bikini contests at the track’s BadBoyz/BadGirlz night. It should be a lot of fun. The gates open at 7PM, and the band starts at at 8PM. Check out the track’s website at www.pittsburghracewaypark.com

Hopefully, there won’t be a follow up postmortem to report!

This weekend, August 2, Rheme Cleo will be playing a private gig to a few hundred people at FarmFest 2008. Tickets are $50 per person and include your beverage of choice, and a complimentary pig roast. You can purchase your tickets here:

Just when you thought you heard what must be the Rheme Cleo sound, they decide to shake things up at the next gig! Their old buddy, Rockin’ Ray will be performing some tunes with them at their next private, invite only(sold out months ago!) gig. Ray has been rockin’ and rollin’ for as long as the band can remember! He played with Jimmy Mac, Carl, and Tim as early as 1978….30 years ago! To celebrate 30 years of hard rockin’ down separate paths, they are gonna come to the crossroads of their musical lives and ROCK The ‘O’ on July 4th! Coincidentally, Van Halen’s killer first album hit the streets in 1978, so the boys thought that it would be cool to rock out a couple of classic VH tunes. Jimmy and Rockin’ Ray are smilin’ big, as DLR and EVH are amongst their largest influences! To prepare for the gig, they got to work rehearsing last week. By the end of the night, the sound was coming together. By showtime, it will be classic! How can it not be? Ten minutes into their first rehearsal, Ray was on top of a chair singing!! The band will of course be playing their standard set of music, but they will undoubtedly be pulling out the stops and providing many surprises!
