"the songs are memorable, lush with cello and violin that add drama and depth to the acoustic guitar" - MEGAN SELING - The Stranger
Tim got bored mushing dogs in the Iditarod and decided to aim his whip at some string players. When his whippin’ arm gets tired, he throws sheet music at them which elicits even more howling and gnashing. This one sided ritual vibrates the walls of their koa wood house and this is the sound of Pillow Army. Cosmic coincidence has fortuitously arranged these sound vibrations to fit within Western twelve tone music which may actually get them on the radio some day.
Hey man Sorry We didn't make it to Neumos, It was the day after solstice, I think I was concious about two hours the whole day. Hope you rocked it out though. Stand by for new music from the VD x-Pats. And let us know if you run across an extra bass player.
hey new song up its called "Autoharp Lullaby II" please check it out and tell me what you think? it would really help me out so much much love Noah Ross
hi john, tim and fellow pillowers! we'd really love to see ya at our upcomin' high dive show (assumin' it's not too late on a school nite after your rehearsals - we go on late-ish, probably around midnite)
Haaaeeell yeah. Actually, just the other day I was checking out Chelsea's design website, specifically because your poster is so monstrously awesome. Please convey our utmost praise, and be well.
belated "nice job" for Sunday's show...I'm sure you heard it from other people but the sound was horrible. It got better as it went but man that guy had the PA set on "sludge." It's a testament to your guy's tight arrangements that its till sounded good depsite...
