Let’s get ready to rumblllllllle…

CAN-EXTRAS NEEDED: “MEXICO CITY” MUSIC VIDEO SHOOT - THIS SAT. 4/16 @ 2 PM
This Saturday, we’re shooting an elaborate and exciting music video for Canasta’s upcoming single, “Mexico City,” with an immensely talented director, Eduardo Cintron. It’s happening at the ReBuilding Exchange (2160 N. Ashland) and in order to fully realize his vision, we’ll need 30-40 extras from 2:00 - 6:00 PM. If you’re interested, he has asked that you simply dress in black and look somewhat “nondescript.” This video opportunity is the most exciting thing to come our way in a long time, so please reply to this e-mail if you might be able to help us bring it to life… Thanks!

FRI. 5/13: HEADLINING EMPTY BOTTLE FOR
THE DELI CHICAGO’S “BEST EMERGING ARTIST” SHOWCASE!

Remember that “Best Emerging Artist” poll The Deli Chicago was holding that y’all helped us win a couple months back? (We still can’t thank you enough, by the way!) Well it’s time to celebrate the outcome… After playing ten shows there over the years, Canasta will finally headline Empty Bottle for the first time on Friday, 5/13. You’d be hard-pressed to find a club with a reputation for more consistent quality bookings anywhere in the country, so this is a big one for us. Plus, opening the show will be the poll’s next three top vote-getters (see below). So if you’re someone who likes to consider him/herself in the know as to what Chicago’s music scene has to offer, you won’t find a better opportunity to get caught up. Come on out and help us kick-off our new position as reigning champs!

The Deli Chicago’s
“Best Emerging Artists” Showcase
