Hey Everybody, You can now stream the entire debut EP ‘Like a Feather, Like a Fox’ on myspace! Give it a listen and let us know what you think. We’d be honored if you’d take the time to tell us your thoughts.
The artist’s life, and what an artist is … that is very curious. Relatively few
people know why an artist acts in this way or that. As far as I know, the
word means “I am seeking, I am striving, I am in with all my heart—always
seeking without absolutely finding.
Vincent van Gogh, Letter to a Young Artist
Art is revelation. If a painting shows only what is there, it is not art. Art
must carry the beholder beyond this world and all that appears in it,
transport her to the shores of the eternal world, and enable him to see and
hear the things not given to the tongue of man to utter.
Jim Gillis
Broke*
Any of you who considers yourself a music lover, should definitely check out Will Gray. This is from his tumblog.
Broke is the title of the documentary that I’ve been working on for a while now. The basic concept is examining the question of whether or not it’s possible for an artist to “break”. So, what does breaking mean? Traditionally, in the music industry, breaking has meant that an artist has broken through the clutter to reach a national audience, and has started to become a household name. The idea that on one day, you could have never heard of an artist or band, and the next day every one of your friends is talking about them.
I’ll be using the blog to talk about the different conversations I’ve had with artist, producers, engineers, executives etc…
so more to come soon.
…you know you want to!

Really cool-looking product. Might buy one for on- the-go recording of ideas. Would be great for quick recordings of lyrical inspiration, as I always have my ipod, and rarely a note-pad.
The ThumbTack is touted as “the best quality micro-microphone in its category”, its category being, I assume, sub-$15 microphones that are shaped like thumbtacks. But seriously, it’s compatible with third party apps, so if you have VOiP dreams for your iPod Touch or want to prepare early for some of the new mic-enable apps promised in iPhone/iPod OS 3.0, the $13 ThumbTack isn’t such a bad deal.
And people will buy it just because it looks like something that it’s not. Cute.

Check out the (relatively) new ‘Scream-A-Long’ for Red Thumb. Check out the lyrics as you listen, and (if you so desire) Scream along!’
