     Theres nothing like going south for the winter, especially in a tour van with the most charismatic individuals the world could conjure. Billy is back, and new music has been flying out of our heads ever since his return. Aura music festival in South Florida was off the chain. Performances from the Malah, Brother Bean, and yours truly, not to mention, 70 degrees in January is trippy in and of itself.

     The five dates on the way back were constant testaments to the thriving southeast music scene. Unprecedented turnouts early in the week for Charleston and Columbia, mad press in Savannah got us front and center in South Magazine. We moved on to ATL where we got to experience EP3's new line up as well as Sci Fi, a bomb trio from Wilmington. We ended the tour with another visit to Asheville where we were once again warmly welcomed.

If you have had the chance to check out the our show listings lately, you will see that things are really starting to pick up and we couldn't do it without your continued support. Here are some new ways to help us grow:

-Join our new Facebook Based Street Team!

-Join Rootwire, our artist thinktank community and post your own thoughts, music, visual art, show ideas, blogs, videos etc.

     As your probably well aware, Billy had to take a short hiatus, right as we began to tour on our new album, "Observations." We couldn't have been luckier as none other than Jeremy McDonough (the funkiest human being we know), jumped in the van with us. And if you've seen him perform before, you know that he brings a raw energy to the stage like none other. Over the past 2 weeks we have learned much from him and wont forget how he helped us out in our time of need.

Also thanks goes out to all the amazing people we have befriended in Colorado. Your vibe is unmistakable, and your love and support is SO appreciated. For those of you who couldn't be out here, check out some of the pictures below of our western adventure, and make sure you don't miss out when we swing through your town. Billy will make his glorious return on November 25th at the Mad Frog in Cincinnati.

     Secretly, for some time now, hidden away in our secluded woodland abode, we have been writing and recording new music. Music that will ultimately culminate on our new album: "Observations", which will be more personal, more intricate and ultimately bolder than anything we have done in the past.

From road tested, crowd approved tracks, to never before heard melodies and beats, this album will cover all the bases and set the musical bar even higher for us.

"Observations" is to be released October 23rd at the Newport Music Hall in Columbus, OH. Be sure not to miss this monumental night!

     For all of you who have been asking for Papadosio Lyrics to be posted online, we finally have answered the call. For the next few weeks (and the foreseeable future), we will be posting lyrics, show experiences, and other random stuff to our new blog entitled The Rootwire.

To visit the Rootwire, click here. Please leave comments, feedback, and requests for the songs you want posted. Know your Papadosio!

And the rumors are true, when we are not out on the road, we are holed up in the woods recording the tracks that will make up our second studio release. Stay Tuned.

     Something truly amazing is happenning in Harmony Maryland from June 18th to June 21st. Alex Grey and his wife Allison are live Painting and giving spoken word seminars along with an incredible lineup of musical acts that define our scene:

Shpongle, Conspirator, Benga, Brothers Past, The Egg, and yours truly, Papadosio. But dont make us the reason you come to this event, as this will be a real escape from your average outdoor jam festival. It will be a true gathering of the Psychedelic community.

..Oh and if you wanted to know, Papadosio is playing the main stage on friday at 3:00 to 4:00 p.m.

Papadosio is headlining the first night of what is rapidly becoming the one of the most exciting weekends of the summer. With Pnuma Trio, Telepath, and a rare appearance of EP3, not to mention it is being held at Nelson Ledges, Mayflowers is a party not to be missed! May 15th and 16th!!

On a more domestic note, Papadosio is doing a 2 night residency at Jackie O's Brew Pub in good 'ol Athens. The dates are May 6th and 7th. Two local favorites, Shankbone and Jazz Cream Assassins will open. Also, keep your ears open for new music, a second album just might be on the horizon...

Some nights are just plain incredible. Thanks to everyone who made the show at Scully's Music Diner one to write home about. Also in case you didnt know, there is a forum on the website, over there in the top right corner. If anyone has any media, namely photos, of that night or any other night, POST THEM! Expect some hi-res shots from our end soon.

We are kicking off the spring with a two week long eastern run that ends with 3, thats right 3 different 420 shows back home. Further still on the horizon is Mayflowers at Nelson Ledges (May 15th/16th), and if have not seen the lineup yet, you will be pleasantly surprised.

We're back on the road again, and this time we are heading south! With dates in Asheville, Greenville, Charleston, and Atlanta, we are looking forward to warmer days and that goold ol' southern hospitality. New songs are emerging rapidly, and we just might be reaching the point of working on a new studio album!

In other news we are expanding the merch line with all new items next month! Including a DVD that will be shot live on March 14th @ Skully's Music Diner in Columbus. Come show us your support and prove to everone in the future that you were an OG. Until then, Happy Trails!

While many unprecedented things are emerging in Dosioland, one thing remains constant; our dedication to the music and you, our beloved fans. Thanks to all of you for your love and support through these past months. Due to internal creative differences, we are moving on as a 4 piece, and want to thank Kostas for his incredible contributions, dedication, and brotherhood through our journey thus far. We hope to see him continue his artistic mission for years to come.

That said there are some exciting new things on the table. For all of you down south who have been wanting some live Dosio in your life, we got news. We are doing a southern run in February! Also, Papadosio is bunkering down in January in order to perfect a Live PA setup, for smaller stages and weirder appearances. Much love to all.

Our ship has finally came in folks and P-dose is on the road! With dates in Michigan, Chicago, Boulder, Denver, and so on, Papadosio is finally going National! We owe it all to you, and appreciate all of your incredibly enthusiastic support.

If you haven't downloaded the free E.P. click on the music link above and download it. There are 4 brand new studio tracks for your listening pleasure and it is absolutely free! The tracks are:

Be sure you you dont miss out on this one.

As of right now we have T-Shirts in, but the are only available at our live events. Soon we will have an online store set up, along with other updates. But as for right now, get ready, Papadosio is coming to your town.

Somehow between moving, songwriting, booking and rouge show promoters (heh) we found time to update you wonderful people. First of all we are in the final stages of getting the T-shirts made, as well as the free EP, and there's going to be alot of incentive for you street teamers including free Pdose apparel contests in the near future...

Yeah its no secret Jambaloosa is cancelled but that hasn't prevented us from booking a fall tour with us ending up in Denver! And dont worry we'll be back home soon for an October run. Rest assured there will be Pdose Apparel within the end of the month!!!

The future is uncertain, but one thing you can count on is a whole new world of music from our brains to your ears. Spring is coming, and so are a whole new slew of shows and goodies from us. Check out the Tour link to see the upcoming dates.

We are finally getting our merch game on with 2 new designs for shirts, hoodies, stickers, and so on, expect that link up soon. Also we are going to dive back into the studio and crank out a FREE EP! It will be about 2-4 songs long and will be free to download and spread to eager ears. Here's a new video of Polygons @ the Blue Gator to hold you over. Cheers!

This weekend was a blast! Yet another great night at the frog. Thanks to all for coming out. Heres a video of the new song unparalyzer. Kudos!

Also it is whispered in the wind that on April 19th Papadosio will be supporting none other than EOTO at the Scarlet and Grey in Columbus. See you there!
