TANKED #1 with All Smiles

Posted on November 15, 2011 by Sarge

We’ve decided to spotlight a Rumblefish artist each month in a video blog post entitled TANKED. We were fortunate enough to have Jim Fairchild of All Smiles (also of Grandaddy and Modest Mouse) join us for our Friday Afternoon Meeting. We caught Jim and fellow musician, Davey Brozowski, just before they headed out to Brazil by way of Austin while playing with indie-rock stalwarts Modest Mouse. Tanks again, fellas!

Jim’s band, All Smiles, somehow manages to be both anthemic and intimate, serving up close to 100 tracks, including instrumentals, in the Rumblefish catalog. All are available for sync licensing. If you’re interested in getting some of his music, email us at licensing@rumblefish.com!

You can also follow Jim on Twitter at @allsmiles! Be sure to follow Rob Thomas, Licensing Account Manager at @therobrumbles if you want to stay abreast of what’s going on in Sync at Rumblefish as well, and if you’re looking for music, hit him up!

Rumblefish is hard at work getting our hustle into Hollywood, and our latest placement is Rumblefish artist The Diplomats of Solid Sound into the film “50/50″, which stars Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Seth Rogen.

“50/50″ is a film inspired by a true story, and is a comedy centered on a 27-year-old guy (Gordon-Levitt) who learns of his cancer diagnosis, and his subsequent struggle to beat the disease.

Tuaca, a favorite liqueur that is served across the United States, teamed with famed tattoo artist Corey Miller, who was one of the stars of the hit reality show “L.A. Ink”, to have him create a customized label for their flagship brand.

The label was used for their Perfect Chill campaign, in which once a bottle of Tuaca reaches the perfect chilled temperature, Corey Miller’s custom label comes to life!

The clip, which you can see above, used the instrumental version of Rumblefish artist The Lions Rampant’s “All Night RNR”.
