The Velveteen Band has been featured in Victorian Gothic and Steampunk Magazine! Here are just a few snapshots of our 7 page interview where we discuss the origins of the band, the state of steampunk music, and what the heck is up with the puppets!?
You can download the PDF or order a physical copy here.

They’ll be announcing the results of that “Weirdest Band in the World” poll in a few hours. It’s not gonna be the announcement some of us were hoping for. We were trailing behind, last time I checked.

And while there are indeed allegations that one of the bands might have cheated, I don’t think we were second place, either. So, unless the last-minute surge we tried to create at C4 actually worked, we’re gonna lose this one fair and square.

“Square” being the operative word, really.

It seems what we do here is, in fact, perfectly normal.

Let that sink in for a minute.

I mean, I don’t really know what normal even looks like anymore.  Do you?

Well, you do now.  Next time the question comes up, send people here.  Let’s show ’em what normal looks like.

’cause it’s us.

We’re the Velveteen Band: the new face of normal.

It’s good to be accepted!

My goodness! We’re in the WeirdestBandInTheWorld.com September Poll!

Please take a moment to vote, and tell your friends.

In fact, we’ve set up this handy link to make it easier if you wanted to tell your friends verbally:
votefor.thevelveteenband.com

You can remember that, right?

Awesome!

Not sure why you should vote for us?  Scroll down a bit! Watch some videos, read through some posts… I’m sure you’ll find something.

The Whitechapel Circus is returning to the airwaves at KPSU just in time to premiere our first single, “In the West is a Robot”.

Achievement Unlocked: First negative comment on one of the YouTube videos!

It may not seem like it on the surface, but this is a very good thing — it means we’re actually reaching people who don’t already know us, and getting (so far) constructive feedback.

I imagine we’ll be pretty jaded about that soon enough, but let’s celebrate while we can still see the silver lining!

The Velveteen will be telling some stories and debuting some recordings live on the air, in about nine hours from the time that I posted this. Sorry for the late notice, folks. This is why you should follow us on Facebook and Twitter and subscribe to our YouTube Channel: because Webmaster Aaron is a flake.

We’ll be on Live 805, hosted by Tom and Sandy Saturday morning at 9am PST.

If you can’t receive KVTA’s signal over the airwaves, you can listen online here!
