*Both Hot Cha Cha and Exit Stencil Records were recently featured at CMJ. Hot Cha Cha was the lead review on cmj.com for Monday (and I should add that it was a very complimentary review), while Brandon and Ryan of Exit Stencil Records were interviewed for the print magazine.

*And speaking of Exit Stencil Records, another one of their bands, Mystery of Two, will be performing a free show at The Rock ‘N’ Roll Hall of Fame this Wednesday at 7 with Machine Go Boom as part of the Cleveland Sessions concert series sponsored by The Plain Dealer, Cleveland.com, and the Rock ‘N’ Roll Hall of Fame.
