Though it's a couple days late, all of us from Teacups Music wish you a very merry Christmas, Happy Holidays, and hope you have a terrific New Years!  We were thrilled to've helped out with the track "Christmas Mourning" from the Good Christian Men Rejoice! It's Parenthetical Girls EP and team up with Zac from Parenthetical Girls for a holiday track of our own.

If you have a moment or two, please enjoy this WEIRD rendition of Frank Loesser's "Baby It's Cold Outside"!

What a bizarre Christmastime it's been.

Wishing you all the very best this season and a happy new year,

Richie

[teacupsmusic]

Welcome to the Teacups Music blog! We are a group of musicians from Portland, OR. We started off as a fun (and convenient) project because we were a handful of musicians living together in a NoPo house, and now we're a full-blown collective. The performer list is constantly changing, and the people we collaborate, record, and perform with is growing daily. We will post up info and links to some of our past collaborations as well as future ones! (And other shit that we like)  Right now, the Teacups Music collective is working with Zac Pennington and the Parenthetical Girls. I'm not sure if I'm allowed to say what the project is yet, but I'll check in with my superior (aka: Richie) and get back to you folks.

Spread the word ~~~
