Reflection and Gratitude

Hi All!

So I have been enjoying these last few weeks spent here at home in LA. I have been in the process of moving to a new home, and trying to get myself settled in before this Christmas weekend. Funny enough I finally repainted and cleaned my old apartment just yesterday and realized that Christmas Eve is upon us today! I woke up this morning knowing that I will be seeing my lovely family today and eating some really amazing food and just enjoying the time spent around people that just love me for being ME. This has been quite the year for me and the guys. So many of you have been our supporters since you first heard the 5 song EP, and many of you are new fans whom have stumbled upon the many fantastic opportunities we have had this year in getting our music out there to the world. I wanted this post today to really be a heart felt Thank YOU once again. We have spent a lot of time on the road this year, going into different cities and meeting all kinds of fantastic people. Sometimes it has been a month other times it has only been a week of traveling, however the roads traveled have led to an abundance of Gratitude for all 6 of us. If you have ever gotten the chance to see us in concert you know that we always take the time to thank our fans. This is not something that we do to just do, we sincerely mean it, because you have been a TREMENDOUS part in our success as Fitz And The Tantrums, all of you, every DJ’s, program director, production personnel, Mother, Father, Teen, toddler, Grandmother, and Grandfather alike. We have managed to sell as an independent band over 100 thousand albums because of you, and we really can’t say thank you enough!

As we begin to step in to this New Year we would like you to know that we will always stay connected to you Fitz, The J’s and I will always be the ones to respond to your comments on our FB page, Twitter accounts, this site, and any new social connectivity. This is something we all enjoy doing and we will always be thankful for your support. Please enjoy your holidays, and upcoming New Year. Think about the things that you love in life, the people you love and who support you in your journeys and live in gratitude of having that in your life. It is a beautiful thing to have the feeling of people lifting you up especially when your roads gets rough.

FATT will be ringing in 2012 in Atlantic City on the 30th and New York on the actual eve of NYE, we look forward to seeing you lucky devils with tickets to the show. It will be a special night! I am looking forward to all of the new faces and places we are going to see in the New Year. The last round of touring for this record, “Pickin’ Up The Pieces” will be with this West Coast Winter Tour beginning in Phoenix AZ on January 13, 2012. After that we will be off the road beginning in February to record the next album. We are all really excited to begin a new journey with some new music for all of you to hear. Really looking forward to change coming our way! Also, if you haven’t heard the news we have been chosen as the house band for the 2012 Critics Choice Awards on VH1 airing on January 12th. This is a really great opportunity for us, and Ironically enough Maroon 5 was the band for this same awards show at the top of this year. I am so excited to give you guys all the behind the scenes tweets that I possibly can. You will see us on television a lot next month so set your DVR’s :) .

With that bit of news I leave you to your last minute holiday habits. Have a beautiful weekend, and Happiest of New Year everyone!!

xoxo

    I also wanted to thank back Fitz and the band for bring so much happy music into our lives. We had the pleasure of seeing you from the start @ Seattle’s Bumbershoot and before. It’s a special opportunity to show our daughter that great live music is out there from bands that work hard and put out music that is fun, danceable and appropriate! We’ll see you live anytime you’re in town! Can’t wait for the Jan. 20th show here.

    Happy New Year! I am hoping you and the band can make it back to Montreal this year. I missed your performance at the Montreal International Jazz Festival. I won’t miss the next performance…

    Loved seeing you in Denver this past week.  I was blown away.  I’m telling everyone I know, blogging about you, and I won’t miss another show.  Ever.  Thanks for being artists.
