Record Clubbers!
I’m currently sitting on a flight high about the Atlantic Ocean en route to play Americanafest UK and there are a few things I wanted to pass your way in a timely matter. So I paid for internet on the flight. Twenty bucks. Hey hey big spender.
Alright, CBC Music Top 20 currently has Bad Feelings at Number 3!!! I honestly didn’t expect this but now it’s pedal to the metal time. Can we actually get it to number 1? Do ya think? I must say that I’m so grateful for this community of people (the record club) who continue to push me forward. Without you, I’d be stuck. And no one would listen to my music. VOTE HERE.
Okay so you’re response to Bad Feelings has been so cool and the momentum continues to build that we’re gonna release more music this Friday Jan 26th.
Oleander and Modern Drugs.
Two brand spankin’ new tunes of my forthcoming album and I can’t wait for you to hear ‘em. Both these songs really matter to me and I put heart and soul into them. I really hope you love ‘em.
I wanted to give the Record Club something just a little different. A little outside of my comfort zone and something that just doesn’t go on typical ‘social media’. Earlier today I made this little video. It’s nothing special but just this dude talking about his new songs, a little back story/context and why we made them sound the way they do.
It’s important to me that I bring value to your everyday. It’s my goal that my music will do that and hopefully the Record Club also. As close pal Owen Reader always reminds me, ‘tell a story worth telling’…Here is it - the back story of Oleander and Modern Drugs. Plus I leave ya with a little sampling at the end too. Gotta watch all the way.
Thank you and enjoy the new music this Friday!

Re: modern drugs. Could I like your songwriting any more? That you witnessed the power in Rebecca says something big.
