Hey Everyone,

Here's a bit of info on the coming activities... mostly relating in some form to Paradigm.

One. Its the last Friday of the month... we know what that means!!! 5:30pm Meet-up at the Library for what some might call a "Critical Mass" bicycle ride. Maybe... one day.

Two. The music this weekend is Lillie Lemon, Saturday @ 8pm

Three. Its early summer and there has been a hatch of new music to hit our shelf. Here's a list of great albums that we sell right here at Paradigm.

Icarus/Drifting, Relentless - Official CD Release Party in July!! But get it here early!!

Brad Hoshaw and the Seven Deadlies -  "I can't get enough of it." ~a paradigm customer about an hour ago.

Brianna Lane, Let You In - This songstress' third album, you know... the one with the Porch Light song! "I remember the first time she played it here, it caught the attention of the whole room." ~ Me, yesterday.

Vega Star, The Night - Our Milwaukee friends! Haven't taken it out of the changer in weeks!

The Maze, Awakens - More Milwaukee pals! Its all about the uke and I can't believe I missed the CD release party at the Green Room!! Gah!

Pezzettino, Because I Have No Control... - She rocks an accordion... I don't think I need to elaborate, it needs to be heard.

Harbor Collective, The Monday Ep - The collaboration of Brianna Lane and Cahalen David Morrison. True americana. True music. I have one left... and waiting for our third batch! oh... btw... it was recorded right here in Sheboygan by the one and only Eric Cox of Icarus/Drifting. 

Jeremiah Nelson and the Achilles Heel, Take Me Down the Interstate - See this guy live, July 11 with Cedarwell. Only $5 at the door!! You won't be disappointed!
