The Pelican’s Perch

It took two tries and was a long time coming, but my interview with Detektivbyran, my current favorite instrumental band, is finally here.  I sent the questions, both your questions and mine, to the band right as they embarked on their tour for Wermland, and Anders was kind enough to sit down and answer the [...]

Sometimes the best medicine when you’ve been busy as ever, unorganized, and just plain stressed out is to simply leave civilization altogether. Go somewhere where computers don’t exist, your cell phone doesn’t work, and your wallet is completely useless. That place for me was Ponca, Arkansas, camping and floating on the Buffalo river [...]

Another day, another song. I don’t know why the songs are coming so easily all of a sudden for me. This one is a fun one I wrote after watching the end of Message in a Bottle upon waking up from my nap, and while the ending to that is terribly depressing, I still liked [...]

can see why heartbreak is the root of some of our best songs ever. I get just a taste of it and songs come flowing out. This song resulted from a recent conversation that was capped off with an “I love you, but I’m not in love with you”, and my reaction was exactly what [...]

“When i was in my early 20’s i used to look at someone like these 2 look at eachother, then it ends, another comes along, it ends, another comes along, it ends, until you find it hard to look at someone like that again. In my 30’s now so its good to look at how [...]

It seems I’m posting this post once every two weeks, but I honestly am super busy with the record label and all.  But my part time job with my uncle kicked my butt this week.  8 hours, then 9 hours, then 8 hours.  That’s been my days this week working so far.  Installing elaborate concrete [...]

The label’s about to really take off, with the Verbs and Spacetones albums both getting close to being done. We’ll have huge CD release parties for both. We also had our big hip hop party last Saturday night that went really well. You can check out pictures here. The first half [...]
