Mike! Great new tune, and timely release of your demo. The rainy season is upon us, and the fall is one of my favourite seasons. Any places on the net for an early download of the track? Couldn't find any on your website. No worries. Oh, and your itunes link on your website was dead. Boooo. Look forward to seeing you perform this fall. Cheers, -jw

Hey, thanks for the friendship. Grace and peace to you.
My full-length debut album title Essays and Ear Candy is ou NOW. It's ELECTRO SOUL music and is in the same ballpark as Hot Chip, LCD Soundsystem and Sam Sparro.You know- music to dance to. It features an alchemic mix of danceable synth riffs, fervent and soulful vocals, and deep lyricism.
The album is available at iTunes (click above) and CDBaby
wow what a song.. "What are the stars!" i hope i have your permission to cover it!!! i will try and come sun night to Coppertank:) Will you bring me a disc? ~Sayde Davis
Fav songs are 'Shine on Sweet Diamond' and 'Dance'. SOSD reminds me of how, for me, love can be a real, well, tricky one! Dance delivers, plain and simple. Love the African influence. Look forward to catching your band play!
