Today we created a Facebook Group for the Acres Of Lions Street Team and we’re hoping you will join us! The idea behind the group is to single out the fans who really believe in our band and who might be willing from time to time to help us out. In exchange for your extra support we’re going to do our best to make you feel like a part of our family, so that will include stuff like giving you early concert announcements, free merch giveaways, free guestlists spots at shows, etc, etc. This whole process is very new for us, so if you have any cool ideas of things we could do to promote the band, or better incentives we could offer to get you to help us out, >> read more

Over the last 3 years, we have played many shows, traveled many kilometers, met many people, invented many words to describe experiences that appeared to be indescribable… and the #peakpp was one of those experiences that we just had to put a word to, something different than all the other words we use, a word we will remember for years to come… and that word is AWESOMETASTIC. We had a different set tonight, a mixture of new and old songs, songs we fell in love with over time. We also included a BRAND new song we’ve been working on for the last month and an old song we’ve only performed a handful of times, clearly expressing Jeff’s passions for obscure Sci-Fi television program references. There was a moment when a >> read more

We are really excited to announce that this fall Acres Of Lions is partnering with an amazing Canadian organization called MusiCounts!! The purpose of the organization is to keep under-funded music programs alive in our schools, and we are so happy to be able to be involved in helping such an amazing cause. Music shapes our lives in so many ways, and as artists it’s sad for us to think that many kids across this great country are missing out on the joy of music. Our goal is to not only raise money for the project, but also to raise awareness for what MusiCounts is doing, so that brings us to STEP 1, of our multi-step plan. STEP 1 – PEPSI REFRESH PROJECT On October 31st, Pepsi is donating $100,000 >> read more

PEAK Performance Boot Camp, Day 6, Wednesday, September 1st Oh my, things have gotten crazy around here! We’re fairly certain that no a single on of us in the camp, except maybe the Rock Ridge Canyon staff, has slept in 24 hours. It is hilarious while being utter mayhem… being as delirious as we all are, we are still maintaining our positivity and sheer will to be educated, and to complete the songwriting challenge. For the past few nights we’ve been walking around the camp, listening to and observing the magic in the air, witnessing the creations of each like-minded individual here, and the wonderful collaborations… all to be revealed tomorrow night… we are dying with suspense! Tonight was also the final showcase for the week, featuring “Yuca,” “Kuba Oms,” >> read more
