CD Release Recap

February 15, 2012 in blog, double-breasted, performance, shows | No comments

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.

Once again, thanks so much to everyone who made it out to the show to celebrate the release of our new CD, Suit Yourself!

For those who couldn’t make it, you can purchase the CD or MP3s at CD Baby right here.

Enjoy!

I am performing with double-breasted in Jersey City, NJ on Friday, February 3rd. The show will also feature cellist, composer, and vocalist Jody Redhage.

There will be so much cello that you won’t know what to do with yourself. It will be awesome.

double-breasted: House Concert Footage

September 24, 2011 in double-breasted, performance | No comments

Screen shot 2011-09-24 at 1.03.44 PM

Last Saturday, I travelled south on the BQE, traversed two bridges to the NJ Turnpike, made a pit stop at Richard Stockton for car fuel and human fuel, and then headed west on the PA Turnpike. My final destination was the quaint little town of  Malvern, PA, home to one of double-breasted’s top Kickstarter backers – Michele. She threw a soiree/living room concert and also invited her band, Victoria Spaeth and the Spaeth Cadets. In addition to the house concert, one of her rewards as a Kickstarter backer was to choose a cover song she’d like us to perform.

Thanks to the magic of YouTube, you can also enjoy her cover choice. Also, it’s her favorite song of all time. (No pressure, right?)
Dave Matthews Band’s, “Lie in Our Graves”

You can also watch the rest of our set, including one of my songs “Lullabye.”

With 32% of the vote, “My Wave” by Soundgarden won the popular vote for the Couch Cover you’d like to see performed in my set. I’ll play it for you tomorrow night at Northern Soul in Hoboken, NJ. Thanks for helping me decide which cover to play!

I’m playing first at 8pm, but stay for all three sets if you can. Jon, Christina, and I have worked some cross-collaborations into each of our sets. It’ll be a fun night. Can’t wait to see you there!

Help Me With My Setlist

December 28, 2010 in performance, solo | No comments

Here’s the situation. I have a solo acoustic show next Thursday, January 6th at Northern Soul in Hoboken, NJ. I need your help deciding which cover song(s) I should put into my set. You may remember that I sang you songs from my couch everyday for one week in November – Couch Covers. I’d like to perform at least one of these songs at the show on January 6th. Can you help me decide which song(s) to perform?

Click on the Couch Covers Poll below to vote on the cover you’d like to hear me perform. It will take just 10 seconds to vote. Thanks for your feedback!
