Latest Wolff News!

Updated as of October 23rd, 2008

Latest Breeaking News = "The Brass Ceiling", the new Album, is now Available
Wolff has just finished his new album entitled The Brass Ceiling. It is now available through cdbaby. Just click on the following title:
The Brass Ceiling
The Album features Steve Garofano on drums who is the newest member of Wolff. Yes, for those of you keeping count that now makes Wolff a duo of drums and tuba. Some things never change. The Brass Ceiling was recorded and mixed by Paul Mahajan and Mark Ephraim in Brooklyn, New York and Wolff would like to give a shout out to them for sacrificing both their time and money to the cause...

New Video
Wolff just put up the second and third videos in his short series of perverted covers. Check out the multimedia page to view A Boy And His Tuba-- Episode 8: Sweet Dreams and Episode 9: The Girl U Want.


SXSW
Wolff had a very successful sxsw showcase. Thanks to Graham from Golden Arm Trio for making the whole thing possible...


Residency
Wolff plays late at night every Friday at Piano's (unless he is out of town touring). The sets will be in the downstairs room with the good soundsystem and will feature videos and a disco ball (Wolff is clearly pulling out all the stops). Showtime is from approximately 12am to whenever Wolff's face gets tired, so spread the word that there is always something to do late at night on a Friday in December...

New Albums
Addition By Subtraction is now available through itunes and through cdbaby. Just click the previous title or the following link to purchase the album:
http://www.cdbaby.com/cd/wolff2
Addition By Subtraction is an album of brand new songs divided about half and half between vocal and instrumental. The album was mixed by Goat down in New Orleans.
Also just realeased is an album entitled "Naked Tuba" which is a loose remake of Wolff's original solo tuba album deemed too much of a sonic mess to ever release. In addition to the older tunes there are also a bunch of new bonus tracks. Naked Tuba is almost entirely instrumental. This album was also mixed by Goat down in New Orleans. Just click the following link to purchase this album through cdbaby:

Also available at the following link is the album Don't Be Afraid:

If you're the kind of person who's counting you've probably noticed that will make three albums completed by the end of this year. We're not fucking around here people. Stay tuned for the big video for the title single...

Touring
Check out the shows page to see what is currently booked. There are a number of tours in the works though. Late January and in February Wolff will be heading to Eastern Canada (New Brunswick, Quebec, Ottawa) and then some north eastern states. How far this tour goes is yet to be determined. Wolff will be back in Texas around SXSW as well. Much more soon...

press
So I'm still working on the website and will have an official press page up and running just as soon as I get some press (reviews are currently found on the bio page). But for now you can read a review of my sort of CMJ showcase (wasn't really an official showcase but does that really matter) by checking out this blog of the show at allmusic.com There are also two new reviews of Addition by Subtraction at transeuropexpress.wordpress.com and whisperinandhollerin.com
There is now another review of Addition By Subtaction at http://postalternative.wordpress.com

Video Now Available
Wolff's new video series called "A Boy and His Tuba" is now viewable on the multimedia page of this website or by traveling to either http://www.youtube.com/wolffandtuba
or the myspace page.
The series is broken into episodes which involve some talking and the playing of a song. There is no editing involved and no pre-recorded sounds (until the just released episodes 6 and 7). Everything is performed live and all the sounds are generated by, with, and through the tuba. Episodes 1: The Brass Ceiling, Episode 2: Addition by Subtraction, and episode 3: Gear Geek! (secrets revealed), are now up. Episode 4: Shut Up and Play the Tuba, Episode 5: Is the Tuba Sexy? Episode 6: Breaking the Rules, and Episode 7: Blue Monday are now up as well...

Website
This website is a work in progress so cut Wolff some slack as you navigate around. There will be lots more stuff added soon...

For now if you wish to get on the mailing list just email Wolff at wolff@wolffandtuba.com and ask to be put on...
