Matt here saying hello to everyone on the new website. I hope to be posting pictures and videos soon as well.

Here is a feature on me for Propellerhead, the makers of the software plugin Reason, which I use with Blondie. If you use Reason, you can use these patches as well. They’re great:

we are still buzzed about the site… through all of this i have neglected to thank Allen K our prime mover behind all of this stuff… so dude! awesome!

you too Dave!

We’re having some technical difficulties with the ticketing links and hope to have those resolved tomorrow.  Some of the shows are going on sale tomorrow, so for now, just check at the usual ticket sites or look up the venues and find a ticketing link.  Thanks for your patience everyone, we’re glad you’re here.

one more thing is that im sorry there isnt a better version of the Chris Berens cover art up yet… it should be up later in the week

meanwhile go to http://chrisberens.com/ and check out his artwork

ah ha… testing… 1,2,3, etc. are we live?

Welcome to the new Blondie.net! We are still working on some content additions and edits, but in the meantime you can start uploading your Blondie photos and videos and check everything out including the first installment of the 2010 tour dates!

Here are some cool pics from the recording studio, Applehead. I played a ton of keyboards on the new record, plus some guitar, and even a few claps! All in all, I am excited about the new material, I think it’s amazing.

the new BLONDIE album cover art is being done by Dutch (Amsterdam) artist Chris Berens

ok we are getting closer to the next record… all the mixes are done… we have a couple of very cool guest artistes, we are pushing for a 15-16 track record… there are three, maybe four cover songs… theres one track in French and Two in Spanish… as for the English language remaining tracks most of the lyrics are by Debbie… i must say i am knocked out by the lyrics alone… i think that this record will help people understand that one can write rock lyrics that go further into the realm of poetry and literature, that just dont make simple statements… i think all the blondie records are different and have their own character… this one has been in the works for over a year and the long period since the last record has certainly pushed it into its own space… yes it sounds like blondie no question… yes its a rock record… yes there are a bunch of different styles explored… beyond that i dont have more right now… i am close to saying its a little on the dark side but that may just be my own interpretation… so far we have only played things for very few people… when people hear it then we will get more of a consensus on what they think it is… we will release more details in a while the release is supposed to be in the spring… i will let you know
