Scientific Maps is a four piece (and oftentimes two-piece) band from Albany, N.Y. The Maps began in 2003 and has released a full length album titled Get Off the Moon and is nearing completion of a second album named Food for Witches.
>BR>
They have played with bands such as of Montreal, Akron/Family and the Hold Steady. In 2006 Metroland voted Scientific Maps "BEST POP BAND" in the Capital Region and in 2008 Aaron Smith was named "BEST MALE SONGWRITER".
With songs reflecting influences as varied as the supernatural and crypto-zoological to British invasion to Sherlock Holmes to Elephant 6 and then back to the supernatural, they are gaining more friends and fans at each performance and are ready to play for more.
Matthew Loiacono is a long-time, active member of the Capital Region music fabric. Having played in a number of influential bands in the area over the past decade and a half, he is currently focused on creating music alone and developing artists on the Collar City Records label. Matthew's unique experience with promoting music via digital media makes him a prime candidate for this panel discussion.
Repeatedly cited as Best Jazz by Metroland magazine, Brian Patneaude is one of the busiest musicians in upstate New York's Capital District. In addition to leading his own Quartet (with three critically acclaimed releases to their credit) the saxophonist maintains an active performance schedule with salsa/merengue favorites Alex Torres & His Latin Orchestra, the award winning Empire Jazz Orchestra and the seventeen piece juggernaut Big Soul Ensemble. He has performed at the Montreal Jazz Festival, the Kingston International Jazz Festival, the Newport Jazz Festival Saratoga, the Albany Riverfront Jazz Festival, the Rochester International Jazz Festival and countless clubs and concert halls throughout the Northeast.

The Linda and CRUMBS.net, the online place
where all musicians and local music fans start the process of networking with
everyone who’s anyone in the Capital Region music business, have joined
to present CRUMBS Nite Out at The Linda. The evening will feature local performers,
a special pre show music scene mixer, and industry vendor tables. The past eight
events have been a great success. Every musician and band that stopped by benefited
in some way. Some were able to get a new gig but most were able to connect with
other musicians, venues, recording studios, and videographer. Stop by the next
event and continue to network. We look forward to seeing you there making that
networking connection and furthering your music career.
This CRUMBS Nite Out event is free.
Music Scene Mixer
The music scene mixer hour starts at 7:00pm and the performers go on at 8:00pm.
During the mixer be sure to bring your band's information, promotional packages,
and CDs. This event will not only feature three great performances but it will
also host networking tools to promote the local music scene. The first hour
of the event will be a music scene mixer featuring the following:
- Vendors may include video production companies, producers,
record labels, venue managers, local media, t-shirt companies, booking agents,
local bands and more.
- We hear all the time that local media, including newspapers
and alternative magazines, are always looking for band information and show
dates. This is a great opportunity to inform bands on how to get their information
in the media.
- Bands are looking for venues and venues are looking for
bands. This allows venue managers to get information from numerous bands in
person at once without the annoying phone calls.
- Musicians are always looking for other musicians. Meet and
greet other musicians and bands. Who knows, you may get a gig out of the networking.
