Our first live show in a very long time and break

Our first live show in a very long time and break from recording is going down this Sunday at a house party, should be really fun and beautiful weather. Thank you @blck_crrnt for putting together and the other acts @guardianoftheunderdog @wye.low

Laying down vocal beds and loops when you have an opera singer in the band (also amateur engineer hour over here on my part, turn the snare off) @mellocutie you’re amazing. First real band rehearsal in almost a year tonight, such an amazing feeling. We’ve been slowly piecing together the new record through covid part by part, but to play the songs finally and be all together again was such a little gift.

Bigger, more important issues in our current world

Bigger, more important issues in our current world for sure, but sure am missing the live rock and roll with some of my best friends. Tentative Oakland and CA in July but who knows. ❤️ album 2 getting close, here’s a live snippet from almost a year ago. Fingers crossed we can bring 2nd record out of our hometown studio with all the fanfare it’s going to require.

Oh sweet resolve. @mellocutie getting the work don

Maybe last demo snippet before we go into our cocoon and get the rest of the work done. Moon’s beautiful tonight. And every night, our dear companion. Hope you’re well, wherever you are.

Recording an album during a global viral pandemic

Recording an album during a global viral pandemic isn’t what it used to be. But, here we are, one foot in front of the other, like everything always.

Here’s a #demo for you of a song that will be on #newalbum2021 #tapeloops #doubletrackeddrums #neverenoughmellotron // on an unrelated note, thankful for so many things after being witness to a tragedy. A reminder how delicate we dance on the wire. tell people you love them.

Hey now, A friend just sent this and it was a nice surprise, very cool to land on your 2020 Oregon albums of year list @1859oregon magazine, thank you so much! What a year. Feeling the smallest bit of optimism for the first time in a while. Can almost dream about shows supporting album 2 next summer / fall

Special live show.. This Saturday, September 19 we'll be playing our first show since the before times. And the first show since our debut record came out end of June. It's going to look a lot different than the rock and roll shows before, but we trust the folks over at Volcanic Theatre Pub who have been very careful about how this is going to work and honestly we're just thrilled to be playing outside of our studio again. Limited attendance and other things in place. If you feel like seeing some music at the best venue in town, it's going to be a fun night. And you'll get your moneys worth at $5 a band while supporting our live music venues. Our friends Guardian of the Underdog start at 8. Tickets https://www.volcanictheatre.com/ Here's some live footage of both bands from our studio Parkway Sounds . Take care.

We’ve been invited to play a special show next weekend (9/19) @volcanictheatrepub . It’ll be our first performance in front of anyone other than @rainmanic since January / early February? Derek at the venue is being very cautious, which we appreciate and we’ve turned down previous opportunities to play live shows. But the numbers in town have reached low enough we all felt comfortable giving it a go. There will be limited tickets and capacity, and tables will be spread out to keep folks apart. We recognize all things subject to change at any point this year, after this show. So who knows, Live music is going to look different for a while, maybe quite a while, but we’re grateful to have the opportunity to perform again. We’ll also be playing some news songs for the first time ever, which we’re excited about. Starting the night will be @guardianoftheunderdog at 8pm. Check out the event over on Facebook for links to tickets or @volcanictheatrepub website. And if you’re in town, 9/18 our good friends @officialcosmonautical will be doing the same for night #1. Take care

Just about finished with demos for what will become album #2. Will start recording this fall for a spring 2021 release. In the meantime, maybe we’ll share some snippets of the new rough demos, starting with this one. lopsided big wheels, tube socks, rockets, Texas summer heat, climbing trees, banana seat schwinn.
