I did a video blog of the initial 13 days of recording my new record.
A snap shot of a day in the life of creating a body of work. I really
love the idea of a record. A whole cohesive unit of songs speaking
one possible thing. A sort of "greater than the sum of its parts"
idea.
All the 13 days of recording blogs are archived on YouTube.
Heading back into the studio in May for a few days. Yeah!
I can't wait to get this record out! A few have heard the rough tracks. They compared the songs to a combination of elements of certain bands: REM, The Bangles, Blondie, Pearl Jam, Tom Petty, Radiohead, Roxy Music, Lucinda Williams and Yellowcard. hmmm...
Sunday March 30, 2008
Hey everyone! I start recording my new album on Monday March 31st.
I decided that I am going to document each day with a snippet of
video. "13 Days of Recording". Yes, I am doing the video blog. Each
day will "time capsule" something about the recording process...Maybe
some tracks, meal of the day, or crying because I banged and chipped
my guitar AGAIN! LOL.
To view the video blog on Myspace: click here
I hope you all check it out. I already have a blog up introducing the musicians and producer I will be working with. I am very excited about the project and to be working with some really great people! I am not sure if I will finish the album in 13 days but it is just to start and see what we got.
Tuesday March 11, 2008
Next week I'll be recording my new album (March 31st to April 12th).
I'll be working with producer Bryan Russell (Straylight Run, Envy
on the Coast) in Brooklyn. I am very excited! It's going to be a
full length album. Full production. Full band. Very intense! Hopefully,
it will be released by the end of the year.
February 3, 2008
No sleep till Brooklyn! February 15th will a band show in the Burg.
Trashy! Thank you to everyone at the last show at the Sidewalk Cafe.
It's been real nice to return there for a gig. Been a long time...shared

the infamous Folk You pin! LOL. Until next time.
