If this is paradise, I wish I had a lawnmower

Tuesday, June 30th, 2009

years ago, i was an angry young man
and i’d pretend that i was a
billboard
standing tall by the side of the road
- i fell in love with a beautiful highway

David Byrne once listed the things he appreciated in art:

1. Lots of work put into it
2. Bright colours
3. Straight lines
4. Brush strokes
5. Words, letters, and numbers
6. Things that make me laugh
7. Things that remind me of pleasant experiences
8. Common things put together in a new way

Hello.

This is to let you know that we have a special EARLY show coming up on Tuesday June 30th at Mercury Lounge. We will be playing early, at 7pm SHARP which is potentially a perfect time, depending on your schedule.

Below is some live video footage of us playing our song “Kerosene Dreams” out in San Diego last winter. We miss the west coast very much and we will be back out there soon!

Hope to see you on Tuesday, June 30th at Mercury Lounge more info on the show can be found here.

we all fall in love sometimes..

Wednesday, June 24th, 2009

Jeff Buckley is one of those special artists that is deserving of being held on the highest musical level out there.  The honor is only for genius sounds that most could never compare. It’s an honesty reflected in attitude, and an emotion that triggers some of the deepest senses.
