For my birthday I want everyone of you to come out and see Bellini in Europe this fall. FYI, I do like presents and things and stuff.
Rhys Chatham's A Crimson Grail is out on Nonesuch Records September 14th and is now available for pre-order. Matthew played bass in this ensemble of 200 guitarists and 16 bass players which was recorded at last year’s performance at the Lincoln Center.
The Precious Prize of Gravity by Bellini on the iTunes.
Small Stones by Bellini on the iTunes.
Snowing Sun by Bellini on the iTunes.
It says on the iTunes that our contemporaries are the Minutemen (awesome), that people who bought Small Stones also purchased Journey: Greatest Hits by Journey (probably Scott Giampino) and that are not enough ratings to display an average for these albums. Friends, please remedy this.
Follow us on the twitter. Musings of a band, gems from the van, welcomes from emails, spreading out to you like a huge, overflowing table-full of pizzas, pastas, paninis. Abonadanza!!
A Happy Groundhog day.
We had a wonderful time seeing all of our comrades and making new ones along the way, we played with and met so many extraordinary people and had a blast. Thank you to all that came out and let us pour our hearts out to you from the stage. Amazing.
We have plans to tour again in Europe, North America and elsewhere this spring.

The fearless Bellini will be playing a show and working on material for the next record. The record will once again be released on your Temporary
Residence Ltd label. Everything else is unknown, or is it? One show is planned for now, another may be added. Every last one of you is invited. See you there cicci.
12.14 Catania, Sicily at Mercati Generali
Please come back soon ciccis.
So Cool.
Matthew will be playing a one-off gig at the Primavera Sound festival with your Girls Against Boys band. Johnny couldn't make the show at the last second, so he'll be filling his rather deep shoes.

Have just been made to the website. I cleaned it up a bit. Enjoy!
Eventually, we will get some images up from the Japanese tour
as well as past tours. We will rededicate some time to this site
as it is sorely needed.
Japan was an incredible experience for all of us. We had the honor to play
with so many great bands: Fort
Wayne, Hyakkei, John
Juhl's Cornfield, Midoriyama, Mono, the
Shipping News, and World's
End Girlfriend. It was a rejuvenation. The cherry blossoms were
in full bloom, the audiences were amazing, and many new friends were made.
Thanks to everyone at Human Highway Records. We already miss you Japan.
Agostino proudly played his new guitar given to him by Kevin
at Electrical
Guitar Company during the US Small Stones tour.
So what is next for Bellini?
Many ideas have been shot around. Maybe some shows? Maybe a tour? Not sure.
We do know that we will be meeting sometime this year to work on new material
and record our third album.
Girls Against Boys and Uzeda will
be performing at the Touch and Go Records 25th Anniversary Block
Party in September, so there is a slim chance for a Bellini show
or two in the Midwest/Chicago Area.
And lastly, whoever put us up on Wikipedia,
you're a weirdo, thanks.

2005 saw much activity for Bellini, a new lp and single, 2 tours.
In 2006, Bellini will continue moving forward: plans for tours of Japan and
Europe are in motion and other ideas are taking fruit. Thanks to all the new
friends we meet and leant Bellini their support in 2005, It proved to be a
year of reinvigoration and dedication for each of us. Happy New Year!
The SMALL STONES tour was phenomenal. 30 shows in
35 days and over 20,000 miles!
Thanks to everyone who came out and lent us you love and support. INSPIRATIONAL.
We couldn't have asked for a better time, Mono and all the bands were awesome,
special thanks to Lauren K. Newman and Christopher McGuire for filling in for
Alexis for the first 4 shows. Bellini couldn't have made it without you. We've
received pictures, videos and recordings from the tour, please keep them coming.
Email us to find out were to mail things to.
The next steps? Bellini will be touring Europe and Japan soon, we also plan
on touring the U.S. again late spring/early summer. We have a couple of videos
in production and will be making a lot of updates to the website soon, posting
photos, videos, maybe a merch section? Hmmm...
 Finally,
Small Stones is unleashed
upon the world. Available everywhere from the beautiful Temporary
Residence Ltd. The Small Stones tour begins in one week.
We can not wait to see you. The dates are below, we are still
looking for shows in DC and Princeton, maybe Columbus too.
We just added a press section to
the website, a few more things to come in the next few weeks.
It's
my birthday today and to celebrate, your Temporary
Residence Ltd. have decided to make the Small Stones
LP and CD available for pre-order.
The official release date is September 6th,
but a little bird tells me that they are being shipped a right
now. Go visit him.
 Ah
finally, some songs for you! A limited edition of 500 of
these puppies are available now from Radio
is Down. The b-side "Never Again" will
never been seen again anywhere else. Get them while you still
can.
Enjoy!
We are saddened by the news of the unexpected death of our brother Michael
Dahlquist, please stop by the Silkworm
message board and lend his family your words and support. Take
this chance to listen to Silkworm at
the maximum level...
Salut Michael!
Uh huh, that's right.

Due to difficulties we have been forced to delay the recording...
Bummer.
So here's what's up: we now meet at the end of July to write
and record our next record. Look for shows near Austin.
We have the Bubble booked and the only step left is to buy some plane tickets
and write some songs.
Ciao Ciccis. Sorry so slow on the updates. Okay? Okay. Here's what's up: We
meet in Austin in April to write and record our second record. We're in the
process of choosing a studio. We may play some shows, so look for us in April
for possible shows in Austin, Dallas, Denton, Houston, Marfa or New Orleans.
Any ideas?
We just finished our Italian tour. We came out with three new songs and resolve.
Grazie e a presto to Ernesto, Theramin, Mic, Logan, Giorgio, JasminShock,
Nico, Sergie, Lorenzo and Massimo. We plan to rejoin in America soon to focus
on new material, shows and the next recording.
Currently we are working on new material and preparing to tour Italy in July,
dates to follow, stay tuned...
