Anderson & Roe on Performance Today!

Hey radio listeners! We recently visited the "Performance Today" studios in St. Paul, MN where we chatted with Fred Child and performed several selections from our upcoming album on the Steinway Label, "When Words Fade." Our conversation with Fred waffled from serious to silly to completely awkward, so it should make for some good radio listening. The shows are set to air on Monday and Tuesday, November 14th and 15th. Be sure to tune in!

"Der Erlkönig" teaser!

Big news guys! We're releasing our latest music video on Halloween, but in the spirit of suspense, we wanted to tease things a bit... time to get excited!

We filmed the video at the Steinway Factory in Queens, NY last June. Suffice it to say, we've never put this much work into a video before. The following screen shots are only a taste of what you can expect from our "Der Erlkönig" music video. ("Der Erlkönig," by the way, is a demented and horrifying poem/song -- go look it up.) 

This video crazy. It *really* is:

Believe it or not, NO pianos were harmed in the making of this video (though after watching, many people have difficulty believing us!):
