ROCKIN' WITH CALABRESE! By Harriet Von Lupin

Hey, dudes! This is Harriet Von Lupin for The MonsterGrrls' 31 Days Of Halloween, and we are reporting on another cool horror-rock band for you to add to your Halloween party playlist--Calabrese!

Calabrese is three actual brothers named Bobby (guitars
and vocals), Jimmy (bass and vocals) and Davey (drums) from Phoenix, Arizona, who specialize in red-hot, punk-flavored rock 'n roll with cool B-horror movie lyrics! After forming in 2003 and making a self-released six-song EP called Midnight Spookshow, Calabrese drew rave reviews from fans and critics alike, all over the world. They were approached afterward by several indie labels, but these guys stayed true to themselves and formed their own label, Spookshow Records. So far, they've released two albums, 13 Halloweens and The Traveling Vampire Show, both of which are favorites in the Mad Doctor's Monster Shop!

Right now Calabrese is preparing their third CD, and has an ongoing contest on their website until October 30th that could let you name the new CD! If you want to participate, send any CD titles you come up with to CdContest@CalabreseRock.com. Hey, your title might just be the one they pick! (Check their website for more info and a list of new song titles--just click on the title link to get there!)

Gotta go now, but be sure to come back tomorrow for more of The MonsterGrrls' 31 Days Of Halloween! OW-WOOOOOO!
