Just got word we’re returning to the Troubadour in West Hollywood September 8! We’ll be opening for our friends BigBang from Norway.
And some pics from our studio time with Adam …

and the star of the show, the Boss TU-12H …

Fulltone’s just released their new Robin Trower Overdrive and it sounds great. Less mid-scoop than their OCD and GT500 (less “modern”) and less 808/Tubescreamer mid-hump than the Full Drive 2 Mosfet.
Last night we all went to Japantown on Sawtelle and rented one of those private karaoke rooms.
Ankur is putting the finishing touches on our private […]

Wow it’s really been a month since my last post.
We’ve tracked guitars, vocals, backup vocals and even more guitars with Adam in his studio.
busted out and broken in:

Adam’s new candy apple red Fender Jazzmaster (killer! going to be a recurring tone/voice on the album)
my fingerpicking debut on a Gretsch Tenessee Rose through Roland’s new Space […]

Going into the studio with Adam next week! Vocals, backing vocals and overdubs on top of what we’ve done so far. Adam is fantastic and I feel lucky just to work with him.
Just played a Headstrong Lil’ King Reverb 1×10 which was spectacular. It would have been nice to have a smaller combo on our […]

Our touring van has passed California smog check with flying colors.  0 emissions. That’s better than most hybrids.
When Anks gets back from Japan we’re heading back into the studio with Adam.
I would love a Nash Esquire and a Juke 1210.

Quyen took some fantastic shots yesterday.  We’ll have more up soon, and I bet we’ll be keeping some for the album liners too.

New song ready to roll! This one should make the record. “Steal your heart away” is the working title and probably the finished title. I picked up a neat ‘72 Fender Precision Bass strung with flatwounds two days ago and started on this boogie. Kyle’s laying down a killer walking part […]

“these narrow streets”
“Dozen hearts”
“Sundown”
“Finding a way home”
“take a deep breath”
“you’re sweet”
“suits you fine “

I’ve usually written songs in batches of three of four.  It was a bit of a cold, dark winter and I’ve happened to walk out with about seven new songs in the past two months.  New songs are my saving grace.  Six […]

Backstage Cafe 03.06 (for some of the folks from Myspace)

Hooker (definitely not new)
Finding a way home (newish)
Suits you fine (new)
Dozen hearts (spankin new)
Las Cruces (new)
Sundown (new)
Restless sea
“Main St.” (new)
Bloodburner

We took some liberties and called out six new songs Thursday night.  “Main St.” is still untitled hence the quotation marks.  I can’t wait to record these […]
