What a Trip

It’s hard to believe that it’s been nearly two weeks since the first Effusion members landed in SFO for the tour, but what a tour it was! If you kept up with us on Twitter, you know that there was never a dull moment as we traveled around the Bay Area performing, seeing sights, and living it up Effusion style.

Thanks go out to all those that helped make this trip happen – as well as those who made it such a blast – in and outside of Effusion. It’s times like these that remind us how much the common love and appreciation of the spectacle of music can bring people together for moments they will never forget for the rest of their lives.

We couldn’t imagine a better way to send off those leaving the group after this summer. We are especially thankful to them for everything they showed us and we look forward to each of them playing a part in Effusion’s future as friends and as alumni.

We also look forward to bringing in new members and continuing to make trips like this possible (Sooner rather than later!). For information on how to join Effusion, see our Auditions post below. Have a great Summer, and see you all in the Fall!

Summer Tour 2010

The 2010 Effusion Summer Tour has officially begun and the gang’s all here in sunny San Francisco for the first time since the Spring Concert!
