What up CE fam?
If you will be in Atlanta (or nearby) on Friday, June 18th, come check out Collective Efforts live at Smith’s Olde Bar. Not only will we be sharing the night with live hip hop group Vonnegutt from Marietta, GA, but we will hopefully be debuting a live acoustic set, as well as pulling out a couple of other musical surprises for you…not to mention great music provided by the one and only Captain Mudfish on the 1’s and 2’s. Hope to see you all out!
Peace,
Ben Hameen


Even if you already have the album, grab another one from FatBeats.com who recently added yours truly to their catalog! They are selling hardcopies of Freezing World for the low low.
Holler!

Collective Efforts brings some Atlanta flavor to Asheville, NC this Saturday night as part of a weekend of great artists including Bonobo and Blue Tech Live Bands . If you know anyone in that area, please let them know to come check out your fam on Saturday night.

See you this Saturday!

Come join us in celebrating the release of our fourth full-length album as Collective Efforts!
“Freezing World” is out on the 16th of February, and we will be at Smith’s Olde Bar the following Friday with guests Dillon, J-Live and DJ Synthesis on the tables.
The plan is to blow your minds with dope new music from the crew, incredible features and guests, and a CE show like you’ve never seen before, complete with the new CE Live line-up, which consists of:
Richard Jones on drums and percussion, Matthew Weiss on guitar, Alfredo Lapuz, Jr. on keys, and the newest addition to the crew, Jim Coley on bass guitar. As usual, the super-talented Claire Kaye will be there to back us up on the vocals and the homie Synt will help out with some cuts where needed. We are excited about the show, and the new record, and we hope to see you all out to support your fam. Oh, and we will have hoodies and shirts with the new album theme! Stay tuned for designs…and if you aren’t up on the latest CE news, click here to check out the most recent blast and make sure to sign up for the mailing list above.
