FB CD RELEASE PARTY SONG #3: Private Gravity

Wed, 14 Jul 2010 00:00:00 -0700

Well, another Wednesday, another song. Thanks for checking out the Subway song and for making the Cici Song #3 on the highly regarded CD BABY Poppy Folk charts for the third week in a row. I can't even get to my car without droves of crusty old hippies screaming and carrying on. It's crazy.

This week's song is Private Gravity.

FB CD RELEASE PARTY SONG #2: THE SUBWAY SONG.

Wed, 07 Jul 2010 00:00:00 -0700

So thanks for listening to the Cici Song last week. And if you have friends or family who might like singers pretending to be Paul Simon, please pass my stuff on. Word of mouth is all I’ve got. KROQ won’t return my calls. Anyway, this week it’s the subway song. My friends at work make fun of me because I spend the time to write, sing and record the song but never come up with a title. So this one is about a Subway. So it’s called the Subway Song. Hope you like it.

My experiment in Social Networks

Thu, 01 Jul 2010 00:00:00 -0700

I’ve got a CD’s worth of new songs recorded and I want to have a CD release party. So I’m going to have it right here on FB. So every Wednesday, I’m going to post a song for you to check out. If you like it, you can click “Buy” and it will take you to CDBABY.com where I’ve set it for $0.00 so you can just download it for free.

The music is also here on iTunes http://itunes.apple.com/us/album/the-evidence-against-me/id376522880 but Steve Jobs wouldn’t let me give the songs away. Like he needs the $.99. Whatever, Steve. Hope you like the music. And thanks for listening.

FB CD RELEASE PARTY SONG #1: THE CICI SONG.

So this song was written for my daughter Cici. It took me 2 years and 2 hours to write. Two years of stressing out about it and 2 hours locked in a practice space to actually write it. If this song makes you slide around on your kitchen floor in your socks while you’re making breakfast, it’s done its job. Hope you like it.

First Fan

Tue, 15 Jun 2010 00:00:00 -0700

So I played the Relay For Life in Cohasett, MA on Friday night. At 9:30 in the middle of a field behind the high school, I notice a teen aged girl sit down and start listening. And after the show she came up to me and said, "I thought you were great. Are all those songs originals?" And I said, "Yep." And gave her a couple of CDs. The funny thing is, I think it was a cooler experience for me than it was for her.

Thanks teenaged girl from Hull. I think you're the one who rocks.

Cancelling Shows.

Wed, 19 May 2010 00:00:00 -0700

I hate to do this but I've had to cancel my next 2 shows. I will not be performing at the All Asia this Thursday or at the Bull Run Restaurant on June 3. I hope I didn't mess up anybody's plans. Stay tuned for some exciting news.

Everything but music

Wed, 24 Mar 2010 00:00:00 -0700

So I've been a busy guy lately and music has unfortunately been on hold for a little bit but very soon I will be back with new music and shows. But to get an idea of what I've been working on, check out the Portfolio Section. I've been shooting some videos for GMC. You can also see them at Terrainsworld.com. Hope you like them.

January Songwriters Series.

Tue, 01 Dec 2009 00:00:00 -0800

Well, it's been a while since I've played live. Except for choking out some 80's tunes at my High School Reunion. You should have seen it. Wow, I'm old. Anyway, I'm playing a singer songwriter's series at the All Asia Bar on Mass Ave in Central Sq. Cambridge. It's a great place to showcase the newest talent in town. And some old guys too. Not mention anybody's names.

Check CALENDAR for the details.

Radio Performance 12/30

Wed, 21 Oct 2009 00:00:00 -0700

So on Thursday Dec 30, 7-10pm. I will be performing live on WATD it's the show completely dedicated to Bob Dylan so that means I'll be playing some of the best covers ever written. Wow, suddenly I don't feel worthy.

Check out the host Craig Coffee's bio and all about the show here.

I will also remind people closer to the date. I got a little excited.

Ryan Montbleau

Tue, 29 Sep 2009 00:00:00 -0700

This is probably no surprise to anybody even remotely familiar with Boston area music but Ryan Montbleau is great. I picked up Patience on Friday not long ago and it's just great. Thought provoking and Groovy. That's rare.

Check him out. http://www.ryanmontbleauband.com/
