As The Wrench Turns - July 9th!!
The first airings of the series will be on July 9th. Brave Combo's Chicago push polka version of "The William Tell Overture" will be used as the theme for the show which is PBS's first ever prime time animated series, As The Wrench Turns. It's based on the long-running NPR program Car Talk featuring Tom & Ray Magliozzi in "off air" adventures at their fictional garage. In addition to the theme, Carl Finch has been asked to score and create a Brave Combo soundtrack for the series.

Young @ Heart Documentary
This week a documentary about the Young @ Heart Chorus is making its debut in selected theaters nationwide. This group made up of senior citizens (the youngest is 72) covers modern-day pop, rock and rap songs whose lyrics take on whole new meanings when sung by these lively octogenarians. While it didn't make it into the movie, Y@H does do a version of Brave Combo's "Do Something Different" in a medley with OutKast's "Hey Yeah". Check it out below!

Adios Kristy Lee
Our little singing buddy, Kristy Lee Cook, has been eliminated from AMERICAN IDOL. She sang harmony with Carl on Brave Combo's song "Precious Freedom," from the CD, HOLIDAYS and we've been following her ascent toward idol-dom. She made it to the top seven, which is very cool. Congratulations and good luck, Kristy Lee.

Another Thing To Fall
Turns out that Laura Lippman the author a popular mystery series is a long-time Brave Combo fan. On page 16 of her new novel, Another Thing To Fall, the main character Tess Monaghan is listening to a radio show on her walkman because it is going to be playing some Brave Combo songs. According to recent interviews, Ms. Lippman says that she used to see BC at WestFest and the band played a friend's wedding.
