First Grammy Nomination for Independent Label Glassnote Records
(New York, NY), December 3, 2009 – Capping off an incredible year, Phoenix has been nominated for their first-ever Grammy Award in the category of Best Alternative Album for their acclaimed 2009 release,Wolfgang Amadeus Phoenix (Loyaute/Glassnote).
2009 has been a career-defining year for the band: armed with an arsenal of incredible songs, multiple television appearances under their belts, including a high voltage appearance on Saturday Night Live in April, significant radio airplay, key licenses and sold out shows across America, Phoenix has truly arrived. Propelled by lead singles“1901” and “Lisztomania,” Wolfgang Amadeus Phoenix, which has sold over 200,000 copies in North America, is being heralded as one of the best albums of the year, and their Grammy nomination in the Best Alternative Album category solidifies their indelible mark on the music world today.
Phoenix’s Grammy nomination is the first for new independent label Glassnote Records. “We are thrilled and honored that Phoenix is recognized with this Grammy nomination,” says Glassnote President Daniel Glass. “We believe they made the best album of the year.”
Phoenix are currently playing select shows across America.

so in case you guys didn't hear - and Phoenix haven't announced it on their website, which is a little funny - Sofia and Thomas had their baby. she was born November 29 and named Romy. there's a teeny-tiny writeup in this week's TIME which i will scan if anyone's interested.
not only does she join the proud ranks of Sagittarians everywhere, she's also got hella good genes going there!

Whoa! What a lack of updating!
So, I recently checked Phoenix's main site, and I noticed this little gift on the forum. It's a remix of "Il Sait" by Phoenix. Good stuff.
I also noticed that there will be a third album released in Spring. Even nicer.
Hope everyone had a splendid holiday!

...I knew it yesterday...
Party time indeed. Nashville was a blast. Aside from a few minor setbacks (i.e. having to turn around to get the tickets I forgot, sitting in the rain, no encore) the weekend was a complete success. Phoenix was of course great, but so were the band before and after them. I don't really remember their names, but they know who they are.
This was the best show we have seen them do on this tour. I was surprised by the fan base Phoenix has at Vandy. Thanks to Lawrence for the drumstick wave and the big bright smile...we love you too. And to Deck and Christian for the making of the funny faces at us...also with the love.
2 new songs...Jetplane and the one that had one too many measures...fantastic.

Well, we're really glad that our venue screwed up (St. Andrews Hall/The Shelter) so the show was CANCELLED! That's right---Cancelled.We should've just kept the Chicago tickets we had before and not sold them on E-bay. So now we never get to see Phoenix perform and we didn't even get t-shirts. We did get an autograph and a picture, but still. It's the music we were there for-not to see 4 guys.
We still love the music, but next time they need to come to THE BLIND PIG IN ANN ARBOR MICHIGAN or the STATE THEATER OR THE MICHIGAN THEATER.
It seemed extremely disorganized and quite unprofessional (to whom it may concern). Whoever is running this band (if it is their fault, which the three of us hope it's not) needs to really get it together. We go to shows all the time and we've never had a show cancelled on us. Maybe there should be another show added to the end of the tour (please)?
We know Detroit isn't the nicest city. We know. Next time they should come to ANN ARBOR. More people will come. It is college aged kids who actually listen to their music. Honestly, we and our friends listen to it a lot.
Peace.
- Lori, Christina and Lauren
