Hey there,
Hoping everybody has had a lovely holiday season with some much deserved downtime! We are taking a bit of time off ourselves, to work on some new material that we are super excited about, but will be back with updates quite soon!
Best,
Alan, TJ, Michael, Evan
Hello!
As 2012 rapidly comes to a close we wanted to take a minute to say thank you to everybody who came to see us at shows, let us sleep on their floor, or just listened to the record that we worked on for so long. Thank you!!
You can pickup a copy of our Sun Ray EP on vinyl all month for the low cost of five bucks. They will not fit in most stockings, but they do make great gifts! Just use code ‘sunrayholiday’.
While you are brainstorming other gifts for friends or family (or just want to reward yourself!), keep in mind that our dear friends at Paper Garden Records are holding a sale of their own for 10% off ALL vinyl. This includes our own vinyl release from July, but the rest of their catalog as well!!
We hope that you all have a lovely holiday season, get some time off of work, and that we get to see your faces again in 2013! Be well!
Love,
Alan, Evan, Michael, and TJ
Hello!
A brief update from Conveyor HQ, where we have certainly lucked out as far as Sandy goes, and other than our show with Freelance Whales tonight being postponed, are in good spirits. We will send out an update once we find a new date for the show. The show in Boston on Saturday is still on!
Above is a lovely video our good friends from Grooveshark shot for us while we were on tour this summer. Hope you enjoy!

Around these dates we have some more exciting news with support dates lined up for Port St. Willow (October 11th), and Freelance Whales (November 1st and 3rd).
See you all soon!!

Hello there hometown folks!
We have been taking it easy this past week, settling back in to being at home and living like real people again. Some pretty neat things have happened lately though so wanted to send out an update and share some information about our homecoming party!
FILTER Magazine was kind enough to premiere the above video that we recorded in LA!
All Songs Considered included our song ‘Right Sleep’ on the podcast last week, and we couldn’t be more excited about it!!
And most importantly we would love your help with promoting our homecoming extravaganza, so if you want to grab some of these links and share them we would be oh so grateful. It should be an excellent show altogether, we will be sharing the stage with y/y, Abadabad, and Field Mouse!! Check them all out and we will see you on August 22nd, around 8:30PM.
Cheers,
Michael, Evan, Alan, and TJ
AN OPEN LETTER TO
WILLIAM JAMES “BILL MURRAY” MURRAY
Mr. Murray,
I am writing to you on behalf of the greater entity of Conveyor, a Brooklyn-based art-pop band. If you’ve been following us in any capacity, I’m sure you’re aware that for the past six weeks we’ve been on a nationwide tour in support of our recently released debut record. You will be happy to hear that the tour has been a success and that we have returned to Brooklyn irrevocably altered. Here are a few highlights:
In San Antonio, Texas, a man named Frank offered me a voluminous amount of tequila which I graciously accepted while attempting to coerce a stoned girl who had crawled into the backseat of our van back into the bar with the lure of additional Schedule-I controlled substances.
In the Del Norte Coast Redwoods State Park in northern California, the four of us tried to encircle a redwood tree by linking arms, to no avail. You wouldn’t believe how big those trees are, unless of course you have been there before, in which case: can you believe how big those trees are?
In Chicago, Illinois, we stayed with Evan’s sister.
In Johnson City, Tennessee, we stumbled into the annual Grateful Dead Jerry Garcia Birthday Tribute Concert at the Galaxy Lounge. The bass player was wearing a sequined dress, an androgynous person gyrated wildly against a four-foot statuette of a yellow-eyed alien, and a small group of artists exhaustively painted rainbow watercolors of Jerry Garcia’s face.
In any case, as you may have noticed, we have planned a unique homecoming performance on the night of Wednesday, August 22nd, 2012 at the Glasslands Gallery at 289 Kent Ave., Brooklyn, New York. It would be my pleasure to offer you a spot on our guest list; however, as guest list spots are in short supply and high demand, I would add the caveat that you please aid us by selling merchandise (or, “merch”) before and during our performance. It’s not an onerous task, and I would be happy to personally give you a quick overview before the show begins.
Yours,
T.J. Masters
Conveyor
Well we never thought this day would come, but our little album has to learn to walk someday. Please take this opportunity to head over to Ex FM and stream our debut album in full! We are so excited for you all to hear it, and if you are local to NYC please come celebrate the release with us this Thursday, the 28th, at Mercury Lounge! Its the first chance to pickup any physical copies of the album ahead of the July 17th release date!
See you all soon,
Conveyor
