Influences
Off the top of my head...
Yes, King Crimson, Neil Young, Jawbox, Fugazi, Shellac, Low, 70's Heart, Pink Floyd, Dylan, Sunny Day Real Estate, Thinking Fellers, Don Caballero, the New Year, Fucking Champs, Trans Am, Helmet, Wilco, my Dad, my friends and based on what people say I sound like, probably a bunch of Champaign-Urbana bands by osmosis although I never really listened to much of that stuff.
So...I've been busy again...inspired by the PRF allstar songwriting challenge.
The new song, Supersonic Locomotive, is from week 4 of the challenge... the idea was to write a song about a child's favorite thing. Written and recorded in 1 week.
You can listen to the rest of that week here: www.virb.com/prfweek4
Treelady Studios is honored to announce our facility has been featured in the May 2007 issue of EQ MAGAZINE. The issue is in stores now, and online at www.eqmag.com
I really like Tears wont get through to it and think it's really a big deal that you wrote it for your grandmother ... I just downloaded it. Nice siren at 2:10. I think we're due for a hang out.
