Amber Tamblyn Official Blog

UPDATE:  My apologies yall.... I thought my episode of Portlandia was airing last week.  Indeed, it did not.  But soon Fred tells me.  Soon!  Just keep checking in.  

Well folks, it's that time of year again.... time for check ins, updates, reboots, rewires, retools and twist offs.  As in wine bottles.  

First off, I have a bunch of shows coming up including MISSION CREEK FESTIVAL and Hawaii's GIRLFESTIVAL so check THE CALENDAR PAGE for the full lineup!

This Friday I will be appearing on an episode of IFC's PORTLANDIA (which airs right before THE INCREASINGLY POOR DECISIONS OF TODD MARGARET!)  Also this Spring... listen for my voice on Adulm Swim's METALOCALYPSE.

As for the show I was developing with Katie Jacobs for FOX, it is very sadly no more.  That's all I can really say at this moment.  But the good news is that Katie and I will be working on new projects  in the coming year and we remain committed to working together.

That's my update for now.  More to come soon!

Happy Hollow Haze, friends!

My mom has released her second single, "Little Wind" from her forthcoming album which comes out in February!  Download it today!

BONNIE TAMBLYN'S WINTER WIND SINGLE

New poem published in THRUSH!  Check it out!  I'm in the company of some poetic legends like Rachel Mckibbens and Cindy Goff.  Amazing!

THRUSH INNAGURAL EDITION 2011

Holy options!

There's good news and bad news about the Fall:  The good news is that my mom and I will be doing back to back kick ass shows this month.  The bad news is, they are only in new York.  But don't worry!  There's more to come in 2012.  So here's the lineup if you live on the East Coast!

Why you should go to this:  Mom and I will be doing a longer set at this compared to the Bowery event.  If you want to experience the show we have been performing with each other for the last 2 years in it's entirety, then this is the show for you.  It combines intimate storytelling  with new and old works by my mom and I.  If you want to get to know our stories and style in a more personal setting, come on down and pull up a front row seat.  We'd love to see you there.

Jefferson College performance in Upstate New York!  Get your leadership skills on!

What better way to celebrate Leadership Skills than with my mom, a teacher of 20 years?  Only this time her skills will be with a guitar, her vocals and telling me to stop cussing (more than once).  If you live in the upstate New York area or New England area, come check out our performance at Jefferson College in Watertown, NY.  More info HERE!

Shhh.... a very secret something at the opening of The Upright Citizen's Brigade's new East location in the East Village!.... More to come...Shhhh....

Bowery Poetry Club Spectacular: Another Word For Word!

RESERVE AND READ MORE HERE!

The Bowery Poetry Club has been an incredible supporter of the Arts for so long and we are so excited to perform on their stage once again.  Derrick Brown, Emily Wells Timmy Straw, me and moms, and special guest Roseanne McAleese will be performing with music and all kinds of rad non-sense.  Show starts PROMPTLY at 7pm, so get there a little early!

Why you shoud go to this:  Mom and I will be doing a short wild set, filled with all the swear words and whiskey fountains you could dream of.   This is a variety show at it's finest.  Derrick Brown will just be returning from his incredible European Tour with Timmy and Emily and you get to see a small chunk of his Opera show, Journey of Impossible Lovers, currated in Holland by the prestigous Noord Danse Collective.  Plus an opening cerenade by Seattle's powerhouse, Roseanne McAleese.  

That's it!  But don't forget.....DRUMS ON NOVEMBER 6TH IN LOS ANGELES....
