Tracy Spuehler: News

Someone told me that "At the Frank Black Show" was used in the premier of the WB's "High School Reunion." thanks, WB, for helping to get my music out there!

Thanks to Ben Nachman for coming to the album release party and taking the time to write a very thoughtful review of the show, the awesome band, the songs and much more. The review is posted in the club reviews section of their website. There is too much good stuff to narrow it down to just one quote!

very cool powerpop site, worth checking out. they included a very nice review of "It's the Sound" that gives much-deserved props to Producer Liam Davis, and called it "a textured pop record that resonates"

Today, 2 songs from my new album, "It's the Sound" and "Skin Deep" were licensed for the ABC show "Life as we know it." ALSO, today I was asked to be on a reality show (which I turned down). Now I feel like I've really made it:) It was a fun and funny day, which ended with playing a show at the Hotel Cafe with my buddy AM. Good times!

Hey folks. Just wanted to let you know what I'm up to now that the new album is out there for the world to hear. I'm spending a lot of time writing, and also am starting to learn how to play the piano. I love, love, love it! And have already started to write on piano (usually I write on guitar), which is quite different. It's very exciting & I'll definitely have new songs to share with you at my upcoming gigs!

The trip to NY & Mpls was a blast! Thanks to everyone who came out to see the shows and say hi. It was great to see you and meet those of you I hadn't met before. I felt the love and hope you did too:)

In the upcoming week, I'm going to be playing at Fez under Time Cafe in New York and Acadia Cafe in Minneapolis. If you have friends in either city, please pass on the good word. I'm looking forward to the adventures in both cities!
