Wow it's been a long time since I've updated this. But while I haven't been writing, I have been playing. I'm currently involved in 5 projects.
The Winebirds (myspace.com/thewinebirds) a 6 piece male and female pop-vocal group featuring a spectacular array of vintage amps and keyboards
John O'Mara (myspace.com/fuzzzmonkey) more of an electronic / industrial feel, currently a 3 piece with lots of loops and backing tracks featured in live shows
Dallas (myspace.com/dallasmusicseattle) the most similar sound to my last band, Americana rock from Seattle
Bradley Wik & The Charlatans (myspace.com/bradleywik) a new 3 piece, soon to be 4 piece, fronted by Bradley who just moved here from NYC
The fifth project is as yet unnamed, it's more of a studio collaborative with myself and Ryan Ferris at this point, but we are playing a show at the Cherry City Music Festival so we'll probably have a name and a myspace by then.
This is a pretty diverse set of bands and I am very excited to be involved with each one. I've got three shows this week alone.
Coming soon, a new website with music from all of my projects as well as a complete concert calendar and some other good stuff. Until then, I'll post the show dates here and on facebook / myspace so if you get a chance come out and see some of these new bands.
As a side note, Scotland Barr has a big show coming up next month at the Doug Fir. I went and saw them at the White Eagle a few weeks ago, they have lots of new material which is better than anything and you all owe it to yourselves to see them play. No better venue than the Doug Fir go to www.scotlandbarr.com for more info.
