It is my pleasure to announce the debut of Carney's first music video, "Love Me Chase Me".
It's been quite a long time coming and we're so excited to finally have something to share with you. This video was shot in the scorching Riverside heat under the supervision of an incredible labor of love crew to whom we are forever grateful.
We hope you enjoy stepping inside our little world for a few minutes and please, feel free to stay ;-)
Check out Part 1 of a 4-part Behind the Scenes series look at the Making Of our music video for "Love Me Chase Me" NOW on YouTube or in the video player below. The video features the lovely Evan Rachael Wood guest starring as Lady Vilette.
STAY TUNED THIS WEEKEND as the MUSIC VIDEO will premiere on IMEEM, starting this Thursday 11/19. Enjoy!!

Producers of the new Broadway-bound Spider-Man, Turn Off the Dark
gave a progress report about the developing show on Nov. 5. New
producing partners are on board and Reeve Carney has been announced to
play the title role.
No opening date was announced beyond "2010." The previous first preview date was announced to be Feb. 25, 2010, at the Hilton.
"Key creatives" met Nov. 5 and confirmed the following:
Michael Cohl has joined the production as lead producer on the
show. Jeremiah J. Harris is now second producer on the show. The full
producing team for the project is Michael Cohl, Jeremiah J. Harris,
Hello Entertainment/David Garfinkle, Marvel Entertainment/David Maisel,
and Sony Pictures Entertainment.
Full financing for Spider-Man is expected to be in place shortly. Once this happens the show will resume full production.
The show will open in 2010 at the Hilton Theatre in New York. No date was given.
Michael Cohl stated, "Having started early on with Spider-Man
and now taking on the lead producing role is extremely exciting and a
welcome challenge. Knowing the details and intricacies of this wildly
ambitious project, I want to 'turn off the dark' on all the wild
speculation about the show — it's moving forward!"
Spider-Man director Julie Taymor stated, "With a team that
includes Bono, Edge and Glen Berger, there was never a question in my
mind that Spider-Man would happen — it was just a matter of when. I am delighted that Michael Cohl is making this a reality."
After "an exhaustive search that included a casting call tour spanning
six cities and thousands of candidates," the producers and creative
team chose Reeve Carney to play the role of Peter Parker, The Amazing
Spider-Man. Carney joins previously announced cast members Evan Rachel
Wood as Mary Jane Watson, Peter Parker’s girlfriend and Alan Cumming as
Norman Osborn (aka Green Goblin).
Reeve is the lead singer of Carney, the "hot up and coming rock band"
whose newest single "Love Me Chase Me" was just released. The band's
first full length album, entitled "Mr. Green," will be released in
early 2010 on Interscope Records. Reeve's acting credits include Julie
Taymor's upcoming film version of "The Tempest" and the film version of
the acclaimed novel "Snow Falling on Cedars."
Julie Taymor continued, "Having recently finished shooting 'The
Tempest' with Reeve as the young prince, I am thrilled to cast him in
an entirely different role as Peter Parker in Spider-Man.
When I first saw Reeve, he was performing with his terrific band
Carney. The music of Bono and Edge requires an extraordinary talent —
not only is Reeve a great rock and roll singer but his acting is
equally fresh and authentic."
Bono and The Edge, who have written the music and lyrics for the
production stated, "Our ambition was to find a Peter Parker who could
really act and sing, but who still brings a kind of performance that
could be new to Broadway audiences. We wanted something a little more
authentically rock and roll. Reeve is everything we could have hoped
for: an amazing voice and a truly charismatic presence."
Tickets for Spider-Man
are now on sale exclusively for American Express Cardmembers at

Hello to all of my/our friends/family/acquaintances/students! Zane/Lead Guitarist/Homie here! Sending this to give you the info about Carney's Farewell to LA show in case you hope and/or need/want to come to it! Oh slashies, how I love to abuse thee...
So, Carney is moving to New York at the end of this year and won't be moving back to or playing a show in LA until 2011 :-(
But, before we leave we're playing one last show at the biggest venue we've ever headlined - The El Rey! This place is huge and we can not wait to fill it up with music for you! Feel free to bring anyone and everyone you've ever wanted to share our live show with and don't hesitate to buy walk up tickets the night of the show - there will be PLENTY :-)

You might be wondering why we're moving to NYC, but before I get to that I wanta recap our summer for you!
We opened up for Shooter Jennings, The Veronicas, Michael Frante and Spearhead, Jackie Greene, and Gov't Mule and each band was so fun to work with! Our touring also took us to some really sweet festivals including Byron Bay in Australia, 10,000 Lakes in Michigan, and Lolla-freakin'-palooza in Chicago which, yes, was insane :-) Basically, we got to make lots of mistakes in front of other audiences so we don't make any mistakes in front of our home crowd! Oh wait, we're actually probably gonna make some mistakes in front of you too….son of a! Well, we'll try our hardest not to…maybe…
Anywho, we also found time to shoot our first music video for a song called "Love Me Chase Me" and I'm trying to figure out how to express my excitement about this little production :-) As a former AP Calculus BC student I did some rough math and it turns out that if you calculate with polar coordinates this video makes us look 237% cooler than we actually are - that's some serious geometric growth people, and it's all thanks to our lovely and talented director Timothy Garrett!
Getting back to that whole CARNEY-is-moving-to-NYC thing, I unfortunately have been told to keep my lips sealed by our label, management, and booking agent :-( All I can tell you is that as a band we are REALLY excited for what the next year is going to bring and we'll be making LOTS of music together - like 8 days a week ;-)
But, make no mistake, we are going to miss playing in LA more than anything because you guys have supported us since day one, and we definitely owe you more than 1 show per year. But, we're so excited that January is creeping around the corner seeing as how that's when Interscope will be releasing our debut album, "Mr. Green." So, while we may be gone for all of 2010, we FINALLY have some recordings that we can leave with you all while we're away :-)
Which actually brings me to another exciting update ;-) That music video I was talking about is coming out soon...
So, to recap:
