Thanks to everyone who has taken an opportunity to listen to “Let Me In” and “Missing” on My Space. The response has been great from everyone with the emails. We have a little ways to go to finish up the album, but believe me, you’ll be the first to know when it’s done. For now, see you on MARCH 13th.
I went to the Paradise last night for the first time since JUNE. To think, I went there what seemed like weekly when I was in school but things have slowed down. The Paradise Lounge no longer has shows (we’re coming up on the one year anniversary…I remember playing the last weekend there, sigh) and a lot of the people I know that worked there have moved on. I went last night, however, to see Lisa Hannigan, who used to sing with Damien Rice. Well, she doesn’t anymore, and she came out with a solo CD in a similar vein stylistically, but one that is a lot more upbeat and hopeful. In fact, both Marie and I commented about how we couldn’t place the last time we saw a female headliner in a venue this large. Her show was fantastic and the band was top-notch.
I was extremely impressed/inspired by the superb opener THE LOW ANTHEM. They are a band I’ve heard kicking around the last couple of years but there are a billion bands kicking around locally so I didn’t take the time to check them out. I feel like I missed out on something. They’re Providence-based and into their third album, which I just bought on iTunes and am listening to as we speak, and they’re the type of band I wish I was in. So much collaboration and artistry, it’s really an awesome thing to say. I love my band but I look forward to moving out to San Francisco and starting a new band. I’m looking forward to re-inventing myself and all that stuff.
Check out both of these artists for sure! It was an encouraging and energizing show. Huzzah!
