Michael Byrnes (Coaster) and Julia Steiner (Ratboys) have a new project called Teethes. I recorded/mixed their first track at the Owlery, and it's out now. Listen below:

I recorded this track for Sean Eldon a couple days ago and it came out awesome. He posted it on his bandcamp and you can listen below:

A new (limited-edition) incarnation of the Options Band will be playing this friday, 9/18, at SubT Downstairs. It'll be the project's first band-show since February. I'm also playing drums in Great Deceivers that night, too. Demoing is getting out of hand for the record (30+ songs/ideas for this project). I've whittled it down to a little more than 30 minutes of music, but still have a few important pieces to discover and put together before the album's ready to be tracked.

Bathing Resorts tracked our final release last week. It's been a great (and all too brief) experience playing with Michael and Brendan, and I'm glad we were able to put some interesting stuff into the world. If you'd like to keep tabs on Michael's musical adventures, do so here - Brendan is currently playing with Teen Cult, New Color, and Nervous Passenger.

What a summer it's been. Touring with Coaster was amazing, and it was such a wonderful thing to experience the West Coast for the first time. Hoping to be back as soon as I'm able. Tour with Great Deceivers was excellent too, and you'll be hearing some new tunes from us soon. Back in Chicago, and my September is already nicely stacked with recording projects. Making quite some headway on the new Options record, too. Maybe I'll write more on this, now that I have access to a computer again.
