2010-03-03T16:08:00.004-05:00

Recent shows in the foothills of Central Virginia have been a showcase of local talent, and local legend BECCA MANCARI is no exception. This live video features her combining forces with DAVID SICKMEN AND THE BELLWEATHER STATES, proving that wonderful things can happen in Lynchburg, Virginia on the regular. What an evening!

DAVID SICKMEN AND THE BELLWEATHER STATES

2010-03-03T12:03:00.004-05:00

This here is a live video from our dosed show with a pile of friends on February 20th, 2010 in Lynchburg, VA at Rivermont Pizza. David Sickmen was a founding member and songwriter for local bluegrass supergroup The Hackensaw Boys. He started The Bellweather States in 2009, and have been playing some shows in Central Virginia ever since. This song is called "You're On Your Own", and we digith.

dosed- THAT'S THE KINDA SHIT (That Burns My Ass) Live and Acoustic.

2010-03-03T11:42:00.006-05:00

This song was filmed live at Rivermont Pizza on January 8th 2010 in Lynchburg, Va by our buddy Tomas. It is a song about giving a hoot to not pollute (and maybe a little ass-whoopin' too). Holla!

Seven/Ten Split Live On DVD.

2009-12-15T13:09:00.004-05:00

Now if you know us by now, you pretty much can bank on some sort of DOSED project being released on Christmas Day. We always figured we would do this because;
A. We are and have been a studio band since our inception in 1992, and it's kinda hard to sell music when no one has seen you live.
B. We love giving music away to our friends because that's what we are here for.
C. We are to broke and too cheap to actually buy anything for anyone.

So, that being said, we are presenting our latest wintery project; a live DVD of the first official dosed performance filmed at THE PLAZA BOWL on December 11, 2009. Features the full radio show of the band with a short interview, and performing two songs as well as the full live show.
