Online Hat Retailer TheFedoraStore.com Sponsors 'Even in blackouts' Rock Band for Winter Tour in Europe

Online hat retailer TheFedoraStore.com provides hats to many professionals in the entertainment industry including actors of NBC's The West Wing, muscians of 10,000 Maniacs, bluegrass band Pine Mountain Railroad and now acoustic pop rock band "even in blackouts". TheFedoraStore.com will be sponsoring "even in blackouts' winter European tour".

(PRWEB) December 29, 2005 -- TheFedoraStore.com spends a major part of it's advertising budget sponsoring the arts through bands, artists and actors. TheFedoraStore.com president Duane Dewsbury, said the performing arts are a viable avenue for promoting his hats. "From rappers to actors, these people keep cool hats in constant view to the public," he said. "But the main objective here, is to keep the arts alive and well by contributing in a manner that we can support," he added.

Even in Blackouts have carved a following based not on their own considerable lineage, but instead though a dynamic and highly stylized form of acoustic pop; though they have a wonderful form of credibility in their founder and guitarist, John "Jugghead" Pierson. For those of you who are unfamiliar with his work, John's storied career in music began as the lead guitarist for the seminal third-wave punk band: Screeching Weasel. John describes Even in Blackouts as, "A vehicle I started to bridge the gap between the work I did in Screeching Weasel and the acoustic music I listened to growing up."

John said he is excited about TheFedoraStore.com sponsorship. "This to me is exciting and different. One of Gub's (guitarist and vocalist) relatives owns a Fedora hat company and they are sponsoring us in Europe. Check out their cool site at TheFedoraStore.com"

The band has only one show scheduled in the US in the near future and it's coming up fast, January 13th in Chicago at The Beat Kitchen. Don't miss it, or you won't get to see them unless you go to Europe!
