The Violet Burning have an exciting opportunity to perform at the Ostrava Music Festival, the largest mainstream music festival in Central Europe. They will be performing twice, with the second performance to be a vibe acoustic Church show closing the festival. The festival can’t cover the expenses for the whole band, so they are looking to raise money to get everyone there (along with some Bibles to give out). Details about what has happened at past festivals when The Violet Burning has played, as well as how you can donate, are at thevioletburning.com. Donations over $20 will receive a special live concert recording. There is also a digital sale of their latest album/boxset The Story of Our Lives, with proceeds going to support the trip. You can get high quality digital files of the album for $25.

Sometimes here at DTL we get a little busy and fail to mention new info and new releases. Such was the case with The Violet Burning’s latest release. The Violet’s have been making music for over 20 years and have just recently released an amazing conceptual work of art. Three discs, 34 songs and a story that builds that lump in your throat, that ache in your soul, and places that everlasting song in your heart. The Violet’s, led by Michael Pritzl, bring us something that I cannot recall ever seeing before in this industry; three discs of sonic radiance and somber splendor, this is The Violet Burning at their best. The Story of Our Lives is available in every format you could want to choose from, and there are several different packages available through their website. This is a story to remember… www.thevioletburning.com
