..In the cozy corners of Budd Lake, NJ, there stands a small cottage surrounded by lush gardens. In the depths of this hive, working under piles of random instruments, someone plugs away mysteriously at a lowly eight track cassette recorder. Melodies hummed onto tape recorders or sung into voicemail systems are transformed into three to four minute bursts of energy, documented for posterity on Maxell XLII 90 minute tapes. And he laughs.
I'm happy to announce that my new album "Songs From The Films Of David Lynch" is out now.
"Truly unsettling and perplexingly brilliant... testament to both the quality of Lynch’s soundtracks and Truax’s talents" - The Skinny
"Truax is paying homage to a kindred spirit with this album. It's the best kind of tribute – affectionate and respectful, but with its own quirks and imaginative leaps and its own distinct identity." -The Scotsman

I saw you and nicole at sxsw and was blow away by your solos on cool enough and the way it is. I knew there was a reason I got rid of my whammy bar guitars and got hollowbodies and bigsbys. Are the shows from sxsw available anywhere? Love your work. If your ever in Mercer Co. You can be in our band anytime!
Lol! "Sushi Lover" *rocks*! Talk about quality songwriting. Though I must confess, that at 5 minutes in length, I did skip to the end after the first 2 and a half.
Here's something else that rocks - a review of dAve and his band The Sea (with that Nicole singer):
"An artist is someone who produces things that people don't need to have but that he - for some reason - thinks it would be a good idea to give them." Andy Warhol
