   About Burn to Shine
Created by Fugazi drummer Brendan Canty and filmmaker Christoph Green, Burn to Shine is a DVD series of live music events shot in buildings that are going to be destroyed. Bands from the area are chosen by a local curator, set up in the doomed building for one day and each perform one song for the cameras alone. By the time you see the footage the structure no longer exists.

BURN TO SHINE 05: SEATTLE - RELEASE DATE FEB. 19 - Tiny Vipers, Minus the Bear, Ben Gibbard, Eddie Vedder, and so much more! Pre-orders accepted at our online store.

Burn to Shine 03: Portland, OR features performances by The Shins, Sleater Kinney, The Decemberists and eight other amazing acts.

Burn to Shine 02: Chicago, IL was released August 2005 and includes exclusive performances by Wilco, Tortoise, Shellac and Red Eyed Legends.

Burn to Shine 01: Washingon, DC was released in January 2005 and includes performances from Q and Not U, Bob Mould, Ted Leo and Ian MacKaye's new band The Evens.

COMING IN 2008
Burn to Shine 04: Louisville, KY has been filmed and will be out in 2008. It is packed with great acts, including Will Oldham and Magik Markers.

You've established a brilliant new marketing tool in this changing world of how we get music...and it has even loftier purposes than that.

I wish I had my own burn to shine, but i just simply don't have the necessary connections (i.e. none). But I have some great ideas and they're driving me crazy. I hope you will one day do a Burn to Shine Baltimore, but not until Lungfish is active again (crossing fingers). Arbouretum would be great to see on there. The Melvins and Dead Meadow would tear it up in LA, too.

as always, brillant ideas realized by sound people ;)
you guys (Brendan, Christoph, the bands) are always inspiring, and the BTS collection is the proof of how good + how far you can get with few simple things and good ideas..

love & respect, tabe

marvellous effort, saw it for the first time this weekend. we thought that the wet confetti singing woman ought to have been a bit louder though :) want to hear the words...

on the pdx one, who did the tune at the end when the house is a-burning?

Volume III is beeeeeautiful.

Props for getting The Planet The on there.

I'd say you should hit up nashville... because east nashville or hillsboro village are one-of-a-kind parts of town and i'm sure you could film there... but the bands would be a stretch. Let's see... who could you use... Pink Spiders... Silver Jews... other indie-pop color/organism combinations? No thank you.

I got the first disc from Q and Not U (when they opened for Interpol, but i love them from more than that), and the 2nd one from Amazon. I knew a few of the bands, but I loved being introduced to the rest, even going on to see them live and buying their stuff. THIS IS MUSIC.
