We are pleased to share our third music video with director Ian Stout entitled "Filthy Hippie Music" from the forthcoming album of the same name.
We are pleased to announce that with your help, our album Corroded Utopia has been voted Rap/Hip Hop Album Of The Year by The Independent Music Awards. We were the only nominee from the West Coast, and we beat out some stiff competition, which we couldn't have done without all of your help. We are independent artists by title, but have a great support system and a lot of people helping us along the way. We sincerely thank everyone who took time out to vote and help spread the word. This one's for everyone! As much fun as it was working on this album, and as proud of it as we are, we have a lot of new music in the pipeline, some of which we hope to release soon. Stay tuned...
Here is the new video directed by Ian Stout (who also directed the video for Balance). Produced by and featuring Smoke. Special thanks to Shireen Press (flame-buoyant.com), Raven Michelle, and Brad Cain. Ian Stout is currently working on a feature length film called Self Resue which will be shot this summer, please check out his webite for the project HERE.

"You haven't really traveled if you haven't ever been lost."
There are times when making music can leave you feeling discouraged and like nobody is listening. And just when you feel like throwing in the towel, something always comes along to remind you that some people are actually listening to what you say... and that can be a heavy thought. This girl got a tattoo of TravisT's lyrics from a song that he did with Biomecca several years back. YOU CAN LISTEN TO THE VERSE HERE
We are now on Pandora! Be sure to create an Eastern Sunz station and let us know what cool/interesting new music it leads you to.
[TREE-HUGGING HIP-HOP]
Though it was formed in reaction to the Bush epoch, Portland hip-hop duo Eastern Sunz has remained committed to taking liberal politics as its muse, even into this era of increasingly lackluster liberal politics. Add to that conviction an ear for brassy production and you wind up with Eastern Sunz’s strange mix of humble tree hugging and giddy swagger. Tonight marks the release of Corroded Utopia, the fifth album from MCs Courage and TravisT. It favors alternative fuels, danceable production, and some creative web marketing. Why yes, it was made in Portland. SHANE DANAHER
