Beren plays drums in a rock band called the Intelligence. She has been on tour before, though never outside the US. But starting next week, she’ll be traveling all over Europe playing shows for six weeks! Follow her adventures on her blog.

Take a look at the tour dates below. Is Beren coming to your city? You should go to the show and meet her! We promise she’s leaving her evil twin behind. She has some Ebaby! shirts and bracelets with her to give to Ebaby! members who come to her shows. You’ll be able to brag to your friends about meeting an Ebaby! cast member and you’ll match all the cool people we met in Beijing.

Watch the Intelligence’s MySpace for changes in tour dates. Here’s a photo of Beren with one of the shirts you can have if you meet up with her.

It often comes up in lessons that Beren is in a band. (Check out this one about touring or this one about recording at home.) Her band plays really loud, broken garage rock and is called Eat Skull. Unless you’re into garage rock or live in Portland, you probably haven’t heard of them. But that might change soon.

A couple of months ago MTV came to our hometown of Portland, Oregon, to make a video about the music scene here. Beren and her band are featured in it. They’re playing at a house party which happens a lot in Portland.

Until this happened, Amanda was the most famous member of the English, baby! cast. She acts in commercials, but she’s going to have to step it up and get a role on a sitcom or something if she wants to compete.

Note the drunk person falling into Beren’s drums at around the 5 minute mark. Oh, and here’s a bit of interesting trivia. Beren is commonly mistaken for Kathy Foster of the Thermals when she goes out in Portland. Kathy’s featured in the video as well. Do you see a resemblance? I think it’s kind of a stretch. They used to have the same hair cut but it looks like Kathy cut hers.
