The video was inspired by frontman Sam Endicott’s synesthesia- a condition that allows him to associate specific sounds with colors.  Trippy, no?  So is the vid!

They may have extinguished the torch on the 2010 Winter Olympics, but if you want to see some more fabulous figure skating, the Sundance Channel’s Be Good Johnny Weir is still burning bright!

The NutRoaster recently hosted Johnny and company’s promo shoot for the new show, which even included the construction of a whole indoor ice rink in our studio!

Andrew WK partied at Nut Roaster Studios while also promoting “CLOSE CALLS WITH BRICK WALLS” which is the “Lost Third Album”. The album is finally being re-released with a companion album of “Rare and Unreleased” material, called “MOTHER OF MANKIND”. The 2-CD set has 39 songs, 36 pages of photos and notes, and is packaged in a special double slip-case.  Andrew WK partied so hard that he destroyed broomsticks, stuffed animals, loaves of bread and almost a real-life dog as the Nutroaster staff ducked and hid from ricocheted items. The promo was directed by The Nut Roaster’s own Tessa Greenberg.
