GreenNotes - GomezJust a day late to be included in the music issue of SASS Magazine, the good folks at CLIF bar have teamed up with bands like Gomez, Guster and Hot Buttered Rum to help them make their tours a little greener. Efforts like biodiesel buses on tour, CO2 offsets and organic cotton t-shirts underscore CLIF's commitment to a sustainable planet, brings the message to each bands' audience, and shows that rock can be (more) sustainable.

"We're really excited to have the opportunity to partner with Clif Bar to bring this program to life," says Gomez vocalist Tom Gray. "It's 50 percent about what we're doing and 50 percent about encouraging our fans to consider their own environmental footprint and to take small steps to reduce it. It's one thing for a band to do something it is another for a fan to say, 'Yeah, I want to know how I can do something.'"

We caught Gomez on "Late Night with Conan O'Brien" last night for the debut of the single "See The World," and they sounded good. The song will also be featured in promos for ABC's show "What About Brian?".
