NEWS

Once again we’ve got a big announcement to make today! Long ago, it was foretold that for Orbit 17 to reach its true potential, we would need to probe the mysterious, alien depths of vocal harmony. Thus we began our search for the heralded chanteuse who could add their unearthly hymns to our celestial chorus.


Today we’re thrilled to announce that Mary Herigstad-Franz will be adding her vocals to Orbit 17! Please join me in welcoming her aboard!Mary is a Bay Area native and lifelong performer. She joined choir and started performing in plays and musicals at the age of seven and has been hooked on singing, acting and dancing ever since.

 

Outside of singing she’s a huge movie buff, sushi lover, loves to dance ballet (badly) and hang out with her dog, Super. You can find her haunting the Bay Area music venues most nights, Tecate in hand.

 

In other news Mary will be making her first appearance with Orbit 17 this weekend at the Kockout in San Francisco! We hope you can be there to welcome her and cheer her on!

 

We'll be sharing the stage with Our Fathers and Please, Please. It's an early show with music starting at 6pm. Tickets will be $10 at the door. See you there!



We've got two more big shows coming at you this month! Are we over-booked? Maybe. But we don't care! We're keeping the Summer train rolling! First up we'll be back in the East Bay at the Elbo Room Jack London with Brother Swan, Silver Shores and SWISS.!

 

And if that isn't enough, we'll be celebrating Orbit 17th on July 17 with some of our favorite local bands including the Hot Takes, Dear Banshee and Loser Soup at Neck of the Woods in San Francisco!

 

Get your tickets in advance to save a few dinero and come celebrate the summer with us!

















 

Also as promised, we've also got some more new music coming this month when we'll finally be releasing "Big Sur" one of our live show staples!

Yes, nerd, that intro riff is in 7/8. :)

You can pre-save it now, or hear us perform it live at one of our shows!
