So much has happened since the release of Love Story in September 2008.

I'm very pleased with the warm response and attention the album received. Check out LA GenX's website for a podcast featuring cuts from the album. Also, "With You" and "If She Gives You Her Heart" were featured in the film Mr. Cupcakes. Love Story is quickly becoming one of the most downloaded concept albums on archive.org. It was also the featured download in Open Source Audio for quite some time. The album was also a part of Free Albums Galore and received a very generous review. Also "Game" can be heard on the BlocSonic Volume 18 release.

Whew!

And so much has changed in such little time too! We've seen social networking move from Myspace to Facebook quite rapidly leaving me wondering if anyone will even read this blog post! Also, music hosting site Bandcamp is doing a great job of hosting Creative Commons music.

I've started covering the local music scene for a blog focused on downtown LA called Blog Downtown. It has been great to meet so many talented people in the neighborhood.

Finally... (and the main reason I'm posting) is to announce that a new concept album is in the works! The theme is 'places.' I don't want to get into any details here as the songs are still being written. 

I'm very excited about how it is sounding so far. Keep checkin' this space for theupdates.
