subNatural

Wow... Been a while since I updated this site. Life gets busy and a lot of great things have been happening around here in the background...

Speaking to that, I guess now is as good a time as any to mention that I have officially joined one of my all time favorite Austin underground bands, subNatural! Thus far what we've been doing in rehearsals these past couple of months has been extremely exciting and inspiring to me on many levels, and it is truly an honor for me to be playing alongside such incredibly talented and like minded people..... And this is just barely the beginning....

subNatural  at Elysium May 20th

 Two things for both my fans and subNatural fans to make note of:

1) Our debut show with the new subN line up, including my friend Martin McCreadie on keys -- May 20, 2010 at Elysium in Austin, TX! We'll be sharing the stage with Emily's Gone Mad (San Antonio) and If you're in the Austin area, you do NOT wanna miss this show!! \m/

2) VOTE for subNatural at http://www.trcoa.com/uac/voting.html -- First prize is 100 hours of (much needed) studio time, some bad ass gear, and a showcase gig at Stubb's in Austin! You don't need to be from Austin to vote for us, and it only takes a few minutes, so please take a moment and help us take this one! :)

One way or another, in the remainder of 2010 you can expect to hear some new subNatural recordings featuring my guitar work, and DEFINITELY a lot of live shows around Texas and possibly (hopefully) Louisiana and elsewhere!

Well, that's all for now. I'll attempt to update this site a bit more in the coming months, as my schedule allows. But for all the latest goings on with subNatural, keep an eye on www.subnatural.net , and from there you can add us on Myspace, look us up on Facebook, find us on Reverbnation, etc.... To hear subNatural and tons of other amazing underground acts from Texas, tune in to Slitscan Radio, on air 24/7! And mark your calendars for the FIRST TUESDAY OF EVERY MONTH - Slitscan Radio social night at Elysium where the entire underground scene comes together to talk shop, share ideas, network and spin some of the best local tunes! :)

Here's to the new era in underground music!! CHEERS! \m/

Reflections

A friend in a web forum recently asked everyone "So how was your decade?"..... I have been doing a lot of introspection and reflection on this lately....

For me this past decade has shaped me as a person and altered the course of my life in a thousand different profound, dramatic, tragic, and simultaneously amazing and beautiful ways. The past ten years I have had some of the most intense life experiences, met some of the most incredible people, lost a lot of great people, learned a ton about myself, about music and art, about passion and ambition, and so much of the ups and downs of this whole insane world around me....

I have lived in 2 different major cities this past decade, one of which I was ousted from during one of the greatest American disasters of all time (Katrina).... I've been rich and I've been poor, up and down, the king and the fool.... I have fallen head over heals in love and had my heart broken on 3 separate occasions..... I have made many new allies, and have been let down by others.... I have made amends and reconnected with old friends, and I have said tearful farewells to others, including some of my biggest influences / closest brothers and sisters in music.... And I have written, recorded and performed songs about it ALL (and even had one gorgeous piece written for me!).....

Why hide it? Why deny it? Why try to downplay it?.... It is what it is, and what it is is the human condition and LIFE itself!.. I proudly wear my heart on my sleeve, quite literally, as this past decade I have gradually acquired more ink to further relay the tale... The tale so far with no regrets and no apologies for giving it my all, for speaking my mind (no matter how politically incorrect, awkward, or painful), and taking many of the risks most won't even consider...

I can safely say I have embraced every last drop of the good, the bad, and the ugly of all of it..... Curiously enough, this kind of reflection on the 2000's (or "The Aughts" as I like to call them) has recently triggered a look even further back, all the way back into the 90s for me... perhaps because it has taken this long for some things in life to come full circle, to reconnect with old friends and family... and furthermore, to attempt to step out on that ledge again and really embrace the new friends with an open and honest heart.... To truly recognize the impact this entire journey has had on so many of us thus far....

I can't settle on saying whether or not the past decade was either good or bad...... It was BOTH and it was EVERY shade of gray in between. Ultimately, I can say with the utmost passion and conviction, that it has been FUCKING EPIC!

"It's the end of another fucked up year!.... There's another one comin'.... Oh shit!!"

CHEERS TO ANOTHER EPIC DECADE AHEAD!!
