Give/Sell released digitally today.. album release show coming up

You can buy Give/Sell at various digital locations starting today.. such as iTunes, Amazon, Rhapsody, eMusic. Of course you can also still get it for free at thegraze.net.
The album release show is March 5 at Cafe Venus/Mars Bar, in Seattle… with Mississippi Painful and Seth Howard.

Free album download, plus show tonight

I’ve been having some ideas on what to do with Give/Sell, and one of them is to give it to people who sign or have ever signed my mailing list. That idea led to having to decide what to do with my mailing list.. and that led to me trying out a service called FanBridge.

myspace uploads

I’ve uploaded some tracks to myspace… I also resequenced the album because it’s better this way:

Apartment
Bet
Bastards
Canyonland
Cheap Wine
Six Years
Picky
Those People
Tiger Nightmare
Price
Second Sight

If I sent you mp3s please consider reordering them as per the above and dropping “Sheep.” And then let’s never speak of this again.

give/sell

So, five and a half years after finishing my first album and just in time for CDs to be obsolete, I finished a CD album called Give/Sell. It’s got 12 songs in about 34 minutes. Side A (1-6) is indie pop/folk and not a big departure from Iowa Anvil. Side B gets a bit more [...]

Rosyvelt & things

Hi, long time no post. Here’s the news: the long-awaited Rosyvelt album is all mixed and mastered, and we’re finishing up the artwork for a November 7 release date, and a November 3 CD release party. I know you’re not supposed to set these dates until you have the finished product in your hand, but [...]

May 2006 Demo

I finished a demo yesterday, which is exciting for me as it’s been two years since Iowa Anvil came out. It’s also just in time for my tour which starts today. There are seven songs: two of them have appeared on Ball of Wax compilations (“Conditions” on Volume 2, “Here Comes the Revolution” on [...]

Ball of Wax Vol. 4, and Tour

A week ago yesterday, Ball of Wax Volume 4 was released, featuring 16 songs by local artists all of whom covered each other. I covered Andrea Maxand’s “Here Comes the Revolution,” and Smile Brigade covered my song “Devices.” Rosyvelt is on it too (featuring your’s truly moonlighting as a rock drummer), as is Seth Howard, [...]

Ball of Wax

I should mention you can now order Ball of Wax Volume 2 on the J-Shirt site for $3 plus $1 shipping. That’s a ridiculously cheap price for 19 songs in a handmade, screenprinted sleeve (care of Levi Fuller). Ridiculous! Order several!

Things

I have a track called “conditions” on the latest Ball of Wax audio quarterly put out by Levi Fuller. You can buy a copy (19 songs!) at www.ballofwax.org for $4. I’ll have it for sale up here at some point in the future, and I’ll probably have copies at shows.
I’m playing at the [...]
