If you stopped by the shop recently, you probably heard us playing the recent works and wonderful sounds of local band Cloudeater. With their EP entitled Greatest Tragedy, Cloudeater will immediately win you over as a fan. They combine a mix of mellow vocals from lead singer, Sam Dew, with creativity in the rhythm section. Here are two tracks, Sabotage and Decade that we here at Wish feel you may enjoy. Please download and support Cloudeater on iTunes! Enjoy!
Don’t forget that the launch for the Wish x Mishka x No Brakes event is tomorrow. The event is AT NO BRAKES. Free PBR will be served, and free hot dogs. The event starts at 7:00PM

Head over to RoSpit.com to check out the music and see a video below, good looks on the shout out homie!
To say we’re excited about this project is a huge understatement. We’ve teamed up with the best name in streetwear, New York based Mishka and locally owned and operated bike shop, No Brakes to put together a few tee’s, a snapback and a dope event for this hot summer. Shown above are the two colors in the t-shirts that you can expect to see with the slogan, “ATL Get Pitted”, a nod to the gears of a fixie and the Peach State. Additionally Wish and No Brakes worked on crafting a 1 of 1 custom designed Fixed Gear bike. The tee’s and hats can be picked up at either location and the fixed gear will be on display at Wish. For those of you that want to get your hands on a bike, you can place a custom order to have one made specifically for you through No Brakes!
___ WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW FOR THE EVENT ___
– An Alleycat Bike Race Will be taking place at 7:00PM on July 24th beginning at No Brakes Bike Shop and will end @ Wish. It will involve multiple stops with a competition at each stop. The challenges will range from kicking a fieldgoal to chugging a full beer.
– Tee’s and Hats (pics to come) will be available @ both No Brakes Shop and Wish for sale.
We gave you a preview of the Wish x Mishka x No Brakes t-shirts the other day. The latest part of the project is a navy and grey colorway snapback to compliment the tees and the custom fixed gear bike. These caps will be available starting on July 24th and will be selling at Wish and No Brakes in extremely limited quantities. Stay up on the blog for more info!
