Nnamdi Ogbonnaya's new album Despondent is out now. I recorded it with Adam Salsberg and mixed it solo. Have yourself a listen!




In more very exciting weird-music news, About a Million's new album that Anthony and I worked on for the last two years is finally finished being mixed! It was just sent off for mastering and release details are being worked out right now. It feels good to have all this stuff I've been working so hard on finally seeing the light of day. ONWARD.

Coaster has finished tracking instrumentals for our EP. Matt and I are halfway through vocals now, and should be finishing up next week. It sounds seriously crispy.

Nnamdi Ogbonnaya will be releasing a new EP called Despondent on 12/1. Keep updated via facebook. Me and Adam Salsberg (Cage Match, Oshwa, My Dad) recorded it together this summer, and I finished mixing it this fall.

I've been recording on an 8 track reel-to-reel machine at The Owlery, demoing new songs for a couple new bands. The first thing I did on it was an old Options tune from 2010. I put it up on my soundcloud.

I've got a couple really great projects coming up, but I don't wanna spill the beans too early.

I finished mixing Nnamdi Ogbonnaya's new EP, and he should be sending it off for mastering soon. We recorded the instrumentals in 11 hours over two days this summer, and he tracked most of the vocals at his house. Here's a song that Adam Salsberg and I recorded for Space Jam's compilation album:



I've been recording tracks for Mike Walker's new You Me & the People album, and they sound great so far. Mike's an excellent musician and you should definitely check out his work. Here's his track Adam and I recorded for the Space Jam compilation:




Dave Hennessy and I have been making steady progress on his debut full length, which is shaping up to be refreshingly varied and thought-out collection of sweet pop songs he loves to craft. Check out the final track from the last project we worked on together:



Exactly one week ago, Coaster began tracking our first EP. Drums are done, and everything else is in the works.

Cage Match finally posted two new songs, and will be playing our last show for a long while this Saturday, 9/14, at the Flowershop in Humboldt Park, Chicago.

Well, it took quite a long while, but I finally got around to redesigning my site! I'll be updating it much more regularly than I have been, and I hope you'll have a look around to see what's new. So anyway, here's what I've been up to:

 - Just got back from an almost-3-week-tour with Coaster. We released a new tour demo that I recorded and mixed as well, with the intent of working towards an EP in the very near future.

- Lots of Options shows coming up, as well as recording for a couple new releases that should be out this fall/winter.

-  About A Million's LP that Anthony and I have been working on for the last two years is nearly complete and will hopefully be released within the next month.

- Cage Match finished basic tracking for an LP. We're playing our last show for a whiiiile at The Flowershop.

- I've been recording and producing lots of music for other people! Lately, I've been working with the likes of Nnamdi Ogbonnaya, You Me & the People, Dave Hennessy, and many more. If you're interested in recording with me, please get in touch!

YO! I'm on tour with Coaster. Check out our dates and catch us while we're on the road!

We just put up a tour demo. Have a listen!

I did audio for a live session with Emil Landman last Sunday, and it turned out really really awesome! Here's the first song that's been released from it.
