Party with Speedbuggy

June is the month we celebrate father’s day. Here at Rising Sun & Co. that is the perfect excuse to throw a party with all the things we love like hot rods, vintage motorcycles, and great music and drinks.

On June 12th, 7-11PM, we are throwing a bash featuring Speedbuggy, the hard-playing, cowpunk band who will be playing music from their upcoming album. Maker’s Mark is providing the whiskey and bourbon for all sons and daughters of spirits-enjoying age.

Industrial furniture that is best described as functional art will be showcased by Cleveland Art. Julian Boots will also be showing off the craftman’s new handmade boots. Julian makes some of the best boots in America today, the old fashion way, with the same love and labor we at Rising Sun apply to clothing.

And of course we will be unveiling new product like the Rising Sun bandanna.

Event: Pre-Father’s Day Bash with Speedbuggy
Who: Speedbuggy, hot rods, Maker’s Mark, motorcycles, Cleveland Art, Julian Boots, Rising Sun, fun and games
When: Saturday, June 12, 2010. 7-11 PM
Where: Rising Sun & Co., 107 S Fair Oaks Avenue, Pasadena, CA 91105

Introducing Timbo

Timbo Working in Rising Sun Workers

Do you know Timbo, the working brother on the left? Perhaps you have seen him performing at a cool local venue with his band Speedbuggy. He may look stylish decked out in Rising Sun clothing but he knows he does not need to baby our crafted garments. We are inspired by his hard-living lifestyle and will be featuring him on our blog from time to time.

Check out “Shoulda, Coulda, Woulda” below, the cow punk video Speedbuggy recently shot. Timbo is the front man.

Happy Thanksgiving

It is Thanksgiving time and the Rising Sun & Co. team would like to thank all of our supporters for their patronage and encouragement. Thank you for appreciating all the sewing details we so so paintstakingly insist on in our humble haberdashery. Thank you for supporting Made in USA. Thank you for coming to our parties. It has been quite a journey and you have made it worthwhile. Happy Thanksgiving!

Now enjoy this short YouTube clip we found of a Wrangler commercial that aired during the 1986 Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade. It’s good ol’ Willie Nelson. One day we will ask that man to do a Rising Sun commercial.
