Anna and the X’s Make the Front Page of Thesixtyone.com!
November 18th, 2008 by kevin
We’ve been all kinds of busy here at LemonDrop getting our bands all over the social networks throughout the interweb. It’s been fun seeing the reactions from people at each site as we get songs posted left and right, but one site in particular has found Anna and the X’s climbing the charts. It’s thesixtyone.com, and while Chuck and I are both admittedly obsessed with the site, building up points on our own profiles, we’ve also kept close tabs on the progress of each of our bands and in just a week, Anna’s song “Across the Sea” got bumped 553 times and made the front page. I think we may have found Anna’s first single from her new album, eh?
If you enjoy the site digg.com, think of The Sixty One as digg, but with music. And, if you’re looking for the next site online you can become obsessed with, we highly recommend The Sixty One. Now head over and check out Anna and the X’s Sixty One page!

New LemonDrop Artist: Anna & The X’s
November 11th, 2008 by chuckmo
We’ve added a new album to the media page: Anna & The X’s self-titled release. From Columbia, MO, Anna & The X’s are a young group with styles ranging from folk to acapella blues. From an earlier review of lead singer and writer Anna Fliescher by Dave at Rawkblog:
Anna Fleischer is a an artist, musician, college student, and remarkable new voice. From the first time I heard her blue-throated, jazz-inflected singing, I knew she had talent, and she has yet to prove me wrong. Fleischer’s recorded material is acoustic folk with some jazz overtones a la Joni Mitchell, though unlike the meandering Mitchell, Fleischer often goes right for the hook. These are songs of love, relationships, life…music for road trips and rainy days alike.
So head over to the media page and give a listen to the newest member of the LemonDrop family.
LemonDrop at the Art Walk
November 6th, 2008 by chuckmo
On the first Friday of every month, the downtown Springfield businesses that are art-oriented keep their doors open late, showcasing local art to the public for free. For November’s Art Walk, LemonDrop will be setting up a table with CD’s, posters, t-shirts, and information in the Sertoma parking lot on Campbell (across from Springfield Hot Glass and Ampersand).
So stop by and say hello! We will be staffing it along with the wonderful students from Missouri State’s MEiSA chapter.
