Check out the new video for My Focken Glockenspiel
This Just In (Live)
I write all kinds of songs. Some are about love and life, some of them are about death, some of them are about Glockenspiels and Discount Ho's. They're almost always about something.
I record albums. I've recorded two full length albums, Bombs Over Bristol and Northern Liberties. I released them on my label, Lemon Hill Records. I played on both of these albums with great musicians like G Love, Chuck Treece (Bad Brains) and Tom Spiker (Kelis, Brentwood Estates). Some of these songs have been played on the radio and some have been on television and film from Micheal Moore's movie Bowling For Columbine to FX's show It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia to MTV's The Hills.
I play shows. People listen, people sing along, some people freak out. I've played music festivals and have sold out shows in New York, Philly, Los Angeles and up and down both coasts. I've headlined my own tours and opened up for musicians like G Love and Special Sauce and Donavon Frankenreiter.
Hey Don, what's up! Thanks for thee add. I was working with Brian Thomason up in Toronto here, and he played me your tunes and vids. Love that Focken Glockenspiel, dude! Cheers
