Welcome to Mike Frank! - October 28, 2008
I extend a very warm welcome to über-talented multi-instrumentalist
Mike Frank, who has officially signed on to join Sinfinis!
Mike has played some acoustic songs with me (for
iChannel's iCoustix and for
RiverfrontRadio.com's
The Aftermath show), and I've hinted at the prospect of him coming on board, but now, it's truly official. Give him a shout at
Mike@sinfinis.com!
Mike moved to St. Louis , Missouri from Connecticut early this year. Prior to that, he spent several years playing drums for metal band Risk of Injury. He also owned and operated recording studio Terminal Sound in Waterbury , CT.
Rather than wait around forEVER to find the right people for a full-band lineup, Mike and I are going to push forward as a duo for now. We are currently writing new material as well as reworking some of the songs from the debut EP,
The Edge of a Knife. We plan to start recording soon, and hope to have an acoustic live set ready within the next couple of months.
We are still looking for additional band members for a deliciously edgy, hard-hitting, electro-rocking lineup, so PLEASE spread the word and tell any interested parties to
send an e-mail or message us through
MySpace!

iChannel Interviews: Listen NOW! - April 19, 2008
Sinfinis LIVE! - March 17, 2008
People keep asking me when the next Sinfinis show is. Venues are asking me to book. The interest is MUCH appreciated! It’s a
happy dilemma to have to tell everyone that Sinfinis does not yet play out...but a dilemma nonetheless.
I’m FINALLY pushing forward and letting the beast out of its cage. It’s time for a KILLER live act!
If YOU are a talented, reliable musician [in the STL, MO area] who is interested in playing
this music (in addition to working on new material), please contact me right away. Tell me about yourself, your experience, and what you can bring to the table. Be sure to let me know where I can hear samples of your work.
Message me
through MySpace or send an e-mail message to LIVE@sinfinis.com. I look forward to hearing from you!
Thank you,
Mary Elizabeth Bell

Buy
Sinfinis’
The Edge of a Knife between February 18 and February 25, 2008, and 100% of the proceeds will go to the
Fallen FireFighter Album project. The CD, to be released later in 2008, will benefit the Fallen Firefighter Foundation; proceeds will be given to fire departments and families suffering the loss of a firefighter who has died in the line of duty.
STLSound Magazine and St.Louis Channel 5 (KSDK) will feature the project in the upcoming months. Artists contributing their time and talent to the album include:
Seth BrandBrandon Scherffius of Losing Altitude
Bill Forness of
C-Box Prophets Christopher Davis and Michael Viner of
Ockums Razor Heather Cowles Tae-D Rook As you can see, the project has generated some interest, but unfortunately, they have recently lost some vital financial support. Please contact me if you’re willing to partner with me for this worthy cause. Hit me up this week and I’ll sell you my disc for $5 (+ $2 shipping), which I will donate to the Fallen FireFighter Album.
Hope to hear from you today!
