Christian Music Summit Inc. has launched Worship Guitar Player, a website whose main focus is to be a “one-stop shop” for the Christian musician, worship team, indie artist, church and/or school community. The site works with companies such as D’Addario to get discounts and deals for pricing in bulk. Your day-to-day guitar player can also grab equipment at cheaper costs and support the community at the same time.

Letter To the Exiles release us a short EP of what is to come. With an original track, and a cover and an acoustic track. The albums title says it all. The band might be working on something new for the future, but they wanted to let their fans and everyone one else know that they are still hungry and still ready to move. A cover of the Foo Fighters The Best of You says many things about the band. They are not afraid to take chances, they have strong influences, and the band is learning and adapting to what could be a new side of the band. What that side may be, it is unclear. If Dave Grohl is influencing the band, then we can only assume it will be great.

CBGB got its start in The Bowery in New York City’s East Village and this year they will be covering new ground with the CBGB Music and Film Festival. Taking place from October 9-13 in New York City to celebrate 40 years, the conference will have venues from Manhattan to Brooklyn with the headquarters located at The Landmark Sunshine Theater. CBGB was deemed the birthplace of genres such as American indie, punk, and new music with bands such as The Ramones, B-52s, Talking Heads, Television, and Blondie.

The Film Festival is said to premier 40 new movie titles focused on music-themed movies, and some include a question and answer session with the directors, producers, and/or actors. In order to attend the event you must have a badge, which can be purchased on CBGB’s website. There are four different badge structures you can purchase from the site, with multiple options under each tier. There is also an art exhibit at NYC’s Metropolitan Museum of Art which is covered in detail in this New York Times article.
