Tristan Prettyman on MySpace

November 25th, 2008 stiritup

Check out Tristan Prettyman’s latest blog entry. She talks about the “best trip of her life” - short but sweet.

Since it has been forever since my last post I should also mention that she was selling t-shirts here, here and here in her MySpace blog posts–wait–they are sold out, sorry! Yeah, they have been sold out for a long time (I missed the boat on this one too).

I have been missing in action as of late. I recently moved out of my parents and into my own place, work started again and I have been super busy. Hopefully I will start posting more and posting more news rather than old news! Give me a shout if you have anything to add to this Tristan Prettyman blog. I am also still running Audible Melodies. There have not been any updates but I still maintain it and I will keep updating and adding more tabs, lyrics, etc.

It’s been awhile

I have been away for awhile but I’m still here.

San Diego Music Awards: Prettyman get 3 nominations

September 9th, 2008 stiritup

Tristan writes on her MySpace blog that she was nominated for 3 San Diego Music Awards.

  • Artist of the year
  • Song of the year for ‘Hello’
  • Album of the year for ‘Hello..x’

Unfortunately the only nomination you can vote for was Artist of the Year and the time has passed to do this (August 30th). I guess we will just have to wait to see if she wins! The 18th Annual San Diego Music Awards is on Wednesday, September 17th. I’m not sure if this is on TV, maybe local? Not sure, if anyone has any information let us know!

Tristan Prettyman Covers

September 5th, 2008 stiritup

Have a listen to some Tristan Prettyman covers by Tristan fans at the Official Tristan Prettyman message board: Softly Before I Scream.

Haven’t been to the Tristan Prettyman Official Message Board? Take a look at it! Meet Tristan fans, discuss Tristan’s music, get Tristan news and learn about other Tristan resources!

Also take a look at the Tabs thread on her official message board. There, you will find guitar tabs for her songs! If there is a tabbed Tristan Prettyman song out there, it will be in this thread! Do you tab? Come contribute! Are you wanting to learn how to play like Tristan, come visit! : )

Still don’t want to take a look at the message board? Well, there’s also a thread dedicated to leave notes to Tristan. Tristan also leaves posts every so often in her own little section on the message board. It seems as though Tristan have gravitated towards MySpace and Facebook lately, so she doesn’t post as often but come visit and meet other Tristan fans. She’s bound to come back sooner or later :)

Ever heard of “smitten like a kitten” or “so hot I need an oven mitten”? That’s a song that she created with her fans on this board!

VOLUNTEERS NEEDED

July 19th, 2008 stiritup

I ran across this article about a beach clean up that Tristan will be helping it.

Ocean Beach cleanup: Every few weeks, ChronicleWatch is contacted about San Francisco’s Ocean Beach. If it’s not the beach itself, it’s the trash cans there, or the roadway in front, or something else that a reader says needs dire help. Next Saturday, a confluence of groups is organizing a cleanup of the sands at the beach and - in return - offering a post-cleanup event that features musician Tristan Prettyman, a singer-songwriter-guitarist who’s been featured on Jay Leno’s “Tonight Show.” [read more]

A nice article about G. Love and his summer tour. It’s mostly about G. Love but it mentions Tristan Prettyman along with John Butler Trio.

Poverty. Soda. Girlfriends. The garbage man. G. Love and Special Sauce have written songs about almost everything, each one accompanied by their signature funky backbeat.
