The Rozatones Are Going On Tour

Last fall we debuted the Magic Hat On Tour contest. This was a contest to get the unsigned musical talent of the country to send a track to our website for all to hear. We chose 10 finalists and, finally, the funk stylings of The Rozatones, from Ithaca, NY, came out on top.

Now they're ready to start touring. They've chosen six sick spots to hit as they cross the Northeast, so if you're able to get down, go on and get down.

Six Degrees of...Things: Music, Movies and More are Mingling

From Grizzly Bear to James Franco to Andy Warhol, lots of things seem to be coming together from the worlds of music, film and visual arts lately. Will the canoodling pay off? Wethinks it might...mostly.

The Recipe Throwdown Has Thrown Down

After three weeks of ruining our New Year's Resolutions and packing in the beer laced recipes from our Recipe Throwdown entries, a winner has been chosen: Magic Onion Soup in a Howl-ed Out Bread Bowl!

The Great Gras Contest

Over the year's, we've helped to raise more than $100,000 dollars for the Women's Rape Crisis Center in Burlington, VT. With the help of this glorious community, the money has poured in, and we couldn't be happier about it. This year, we're planning something a little different to aid in raising some loot: The Great Gras Community Fundraiser Contest.

Jim Pollock Printing Special Mardi Gras Posters

The crafty collaboration between Magic Hat and concert poster artist Jim Pollock has just taken a new turn. We couldn't get enough after the Vinyl label, so we beseeched for more!

New Spring Odd Notion Arrives!

It's pale, it's an ale and it's Odd. Yes, the latest concoction in our ever-revolving line of Odd Notions has arrived. The Spring 2010 Odd Notion is a cross-pollination of the classic American wheat beer and the American pale ale. What grew was an unfiltered union with a delightful hop aroma, a pleasant citrus hop flavor and wonderfully balanced finish.

Son of the Sun Have New Album, To Headline Benefit Show

If the name Son of the Sun sounds familiar, it's because they made it to the finals of last year's Magic Hat On Tour competition. The western New York-based jammers have cut a new record and will be gearing up for a Buffalo show on January 23rd at Mohawk Place. They'll be joined by Here Come the Comets and The Thermidors in an effort to benefit the Food Bank of Western NY. Magic Hat and Buffalo.com are happy to be a part of this great evening of music and urge you to check out the new Son of the Sun album, now streaming on their website.
