Happy New Year (and Updates) from Pollux!
Hello Everyone,
We hope this email finds you well and warm. It’s a brand spanking new year and we have much to update you on. And what’s our new year’s resolution you might ask? Well, simply put, it’s to see more of you. Now, on to the new year’s news!
Pollux plays Slim’s on Friday, January 15th!
We couldn’t be more excited about our first show of the new year and what a show it is. We are lucky to be teamed up once again with local heroes Luce (http://www.luceband.com/) who always put on an amazing show. On top of that Ryan Auffenberg (http://www.ryanauffenberg.com), from Halstead, will be playing too. We hope to see you there as this will be one amazing show at one amazing venue. We love seeing shows at Slim’s and we honestly couldn’t be more excited to play there. This is definitely a show that you don’t want to miss!
This show is coming up fast and will likely sell out, so make sure to get your tickets beforehand. You can order them online here:

Carey does tribute to Jeff Buckley
Back in November, Carey traveled out to the windy city to play two sold out solo shows at the infamous Uncommon Ground nightclub. This was the site of the 12th annual Jeff Buckley Tribute Show and was attended by artists and fans from all over the world. It was an awesomely inspiring event.

Pollux plays the Rickshaw Stop on Thursday, March 4th!
We couldn’t be more stoked about this show. Salesforce.com is putting together a wonderful night at the Rickshaw Stop to benefit the George Mark Children’s House (http://www.georgemark.org). Pollux and our great friends and local favorites Gun and Doll Show (http://gunanddollshow.com) will be tearing up the stage, followed by a special guest DJ. More on that to come. Tickets will soon be on sale but mark your calendars as this will sell out fast.
Pollux debuts a new look and feel
We are proud to say that we have graduated beyond just communicating via MySpace and our newsletters - http://www.polluxmusic.com is officially up! Of course we are still adding content and tweaking things but this is now the place where all things Pollux related will be aggregated. Big thanks and hugs to Aaron Dietz (http://aarondietz.com/) for helping us out with the design and feeds.
That’s it for now from Pollux HQ. We have many more exciting things to share with you that are in the works but we don’t want to spoil the surprise of things like Pollux music on TV/Film, a midwest tour, a new album in the works and much, much more.
We hope to see you at Slim’s on January 15th! We’ll be back in touch well before then. :-)
XO,
Carey
