My great friends, Boston band You Can Be A Wesley, are hitting the road at the end of the month. I just put this flyer together for their tour, which you’ll be able to buy in screen-printed form at their shows. Hope you can make it out…I promise you won’t regret it!
There has always been something about Dr. Dog that fulfills the deeper desires of my soul. I think that really is what qualifies a band to be mentioned amongst an individuals favorites. Dr. Dog is certainly a favorite of mine and one that continually delivers…after listen 5 and 6 and 7 that warm fuzzy comfortable soul feeling emerges and everything is made of cotton candy, beer and pork roll. Funny how that happens. Check their new album Shame, Shame.
Why do I love these guys so much? I do not know. Remember Det snurrar i min skalle? You better.
Please have a listen to my good friend Las Flores Project and check the website I just put together for them….lasfloresproject.com

My good friend Demitri Swan has a new music project called Young Adults…He just sent over their demo which is available for free and it sounds good! Have a listen on their myspace or download the 5 track demo for free!
Nice album design too! Get some!
Whoa! That was my first reaction when playing with Bb 2.0. Described as a a collaborative music and spoken word project allows any viewer to play video/audio samples simultaneously. Amazingly the soundtracks work together and using the youtube volume controls you can actual mix them in real time. I recited a T.S. Eliot piece entitled ‘Hysteria’ while trying to mix the clips. Listen to the recording (done with my phone) below. Check out Bb for yourself and make some noise!
Second off, Ty Williams introduced me to the music of Toro Y Moi…I picked up their EP called Blessa and the track by the same name has been looping all day – Its quite odd how the Bb project and Toro Y Moi kind of compliment each other…
My buddy Addison Post put this together for The Phoenix (Boston based weekly) – It really is inspiring and great and I love it…It doesn’t hurt that I’ve had the privilege of calling all these kids friends! Happy New Years! 2010! Inspired! Positive Change! Check out The Toothaches or listen below!
