Beatnik Turtle is a busy, horn-powered rock band that has produced seven albums (including one live album), written music for TV, film, podcasts, and theater, has written an online book for musicians called "The Indie Band Survival Guide" (and is writing a bigger, better version for two major publishers), and has written and released one song for each day of 2007 at TheSongOfTheDay.com. They even continue to release a new song each week at TheSongOfTheDay.com.
Armed with a sense of humor, their music is probably best described as fun, upbeat, and energetic alternative geek pop rock. Entertain yourself here by listening to their music, checking out their videos, or seeing what goes on behind the scenes on their blog.
Now that Beatnik Turtle is finally done with Song of the Day, we’ve gotten on Eventful, which is a service that lets you demand that we play in your city. If we can get enough people wanting us to play in a particular place, we can considering going on the road.

On Sunday, April 20th, Beatnik Turtle was supposed to play at the Abbey Pub for our fourth appearance at the International Pop Overthrow. We were excited, it’s a great spring show for us, and we were gearing up to play lots of new songs from Song of the Day as well as perhaps a live version of Pizza: The Rock Opera.
Alas, the IPO this year is not to be for us. One of our band members had an emergency, and can’t make it. Instead, the band Cyclesomething will be taking our place.
And we’re going to be there.
Come on out, see some great IPO music on a Sunday afternoon, and hang out with the band in a way that you never get to when we play. Hope you can make it! We certainly will.
