Upstate folk n' roll
Like everyone else, I’ve spent the last several weeks hunkered down in my house, refining my relationship to boredom and probably eating too much. I’ve locked myself into a self-imposed rigid routine of remote work, family, exercise and rest, intended to keep my brain occupied and averted from the news that brings constant reminders of [...]
My new EP, "Duels", is now out in its entirety and available everywhere. Here are some words on the trepidation that comes with releasing new work.
The first half of my new EP "Duels" is out right now. Like today. Have a listen to this folk n' roll and read about the agony I inflicted on myself to make it. There are lyrics in here, too, sexy pants.
I’m happy to release to the world a new track of mine called “Win Win”, the first of a batch of songs recorded with my drummer friend late last year as part of a fun studio project at Electric Wilburland Studios.
Early this year, sometime, I’ll have some new Louiston songs for you all and, eventually, a new record.

Quick news on the work front: I had the good fortune to again work with Ithaca-based Gera Films, this time pitching in a short, little ditty for a commercial for an East Aurora gift shop.

The LP spans [...]
After a long time at work on a new Louiston record, it is out of my hands, down the street getting mastered at Wilburland Studios. Done. Finished. It's called, Reconciler. It's 10 songs, and it's pretty damn cool, if I may. This is the first track I've received back, a quiet, snarky little ditty called [...]
Weezer has released a new LP, so we can be sure of three things: it will be heralded as the sonic return of the Blue Album and Pinkerton; it will sound nothing like the Blue Album or Pinkerton; it will be crushingly awful. It’s old hat at this point, so it’s okay, old Weezer fan, [...]
