Hello myspace people. I have been in summer hibernation... playing a few shows here and there but mainly working a summer job, working on writing some new stuff and supporting my friends Molly Jenson and AM.
Molly Jenson's album 'Maybe Tomorrow' is available on iTunes and in record stores (BullyPulpit/Nettwerk) and you can find her on twitter (@mollyjenson). She has been touring the west doing house concerts - keep informed by visiting mollyjenson.com.
AM is releasing his album 'Future Sons & Daughters' on Filter Records with an digital iTunes launch on August 11th. I will be touring with him (on keyboards) the last 2 weeks of August on the East Coast and then some dates in early September on the West Coast in support of the record release. Visit www.amsounds.com to find tour dates and more information. Grab the record off iTunes & have a listen to some good late-summer grooves for yourself.
I am slowly chipping away at songs and ideas that are shaping into material for another record. Eventually these sonic fruits will ripen and we will embark on the harvesting process. Until then... diligence and an open mind are the path. I have quite a few pieces of music... still reading the smoke signals of words and letting purpose emerge.
I'd like to with my friend Sas well as she makes the move to Nebraska. If you haven't heard her music, it would behoove you to do so. She has a singular voice and songs that can make the hair on your arms stand up. Lincoln, you better treat her right and cradle that voice.
I am now on Twitter as well. I occasionally tweet for those who dig info biscuits - sometimes of little consequence, and sometimes to let people know about things that may be worth looking into or hearing. Yet another way to get small snack of information. Follow me... soon I will be looking into doing some house concerts in Oct / Nov as well. So if you are interested in sponsoring a house concert, contact me here or on twitter and I will get back to you to talk shop & logistics.
My keyboard wingman Jesse Nason and I just recorded a podcast with my friend Trinidad and as soon as there are appropriate links to the music and interview online, I will share them with you. There's an acoustic version of a new song called 'own on me' among the three songs... a work in progress. Nice to go into the studio and get in front of a mic and make music. Will share shortly.
I will be playing Sept 15th @ the Gypsy Lounge when I get home from tour. I'll be more attentive here into the fall... I like the fall, the smell of things getting cooler. Keep in touch and thanks again for listening.
