Two photos and a quote of mine were recently featured in the Harp in LA blog. The article was all about the American Harp Society Conference in NYC last month and featured a short section about double-breasted’s performance.

PS – The photos featured in the article were taken with my iPhone 4S, manipulated with Instagram, and are featured on my Tumblr.

I will sing you songs from my couch.

Here is a photo of double-breasted’s setlist from tonight’s show at the Broadway Lounge in the Marriott Marquis Times Square.
My next performance is with double-breasted the Marriott Marquis Times Square Broadway Lounge. We’re performing 100% acoustically as part of the American Harp Society’s 50th Anniversary Conference.
So swing by, grab a drink, sit close, and lounge with double-breasted as we help celebrate the harp!

You may remember my composition and experiment – writing, performing, and recording a piece of music entirely on an iPad. The piece is called “You Smiled Because You Knew.”
In the spirit of experimentation, I’ve decided to change the copyright license to be less restrictive by using a Creative Commons license. Instead of the standard “all rights reserved,” you are now free to share it, remix it, make derivative works based on it, and even use it commerically.
So please go ahead, use it as a soundtrack for a slideshow or a video, sample it, remix it, whatever you’d like to do. If it’s helpful to you, write me a quick email to let me know how you were able to use it!
Enjoy!
double-breasted’s latest record, Suit Yourself, was released on February 11th. Since its release, we’ve had the good fortune of receiving some great reviews. I’ve shared some of them below.
Music Connection Magazine
“This classy trio’s three dimensions make for a smooth, engaging listen.”

“If I were a rich man, this is the kind of band that I would patronize like the kings of old. Rating 9/10.”

Jersey Beat
“Deeply atmospheric and richly evocative”

NJ’s Star Ledger
“Bearing a drum kit, a harp and a cello and wearing threads that look more appropriate for a conservatory than a bar, the three members of New Jersey chamber-pop group double-breasted make a striking first impression.”

Can I ask a favor?
If you’ve enjoyed the record, could you quickly click over to iTunes to give it a star rating and a short review? It doesn’t have to be lengthy… something like “This is great!” works really well and helps increase visibility in the store.
Thanks!
Suit Yourself, now on iTunes!

What a night!
A huge thank you to everyone who came to the double-breasted CD Release show this past Saturday. The place was packed. I took this pic from my vantage point behind my drums just before we started to play.
Here’s a photo of the setlist.
As you can see, we had a few friends there to perform with us. We had Uton, Chris, and Jodie in the choir, Amelia on violin, and Ken on timpani. Here’s a picture of the whole crew.

And here’s a photo of Ardith, Kristy, and I at the end of the night.
