Texas Mike & Tumbleweed Cartel's Friend Space (Top 23)
Luke Lukas is back with an album full of that gleeful gloom that made us love him at first sight. His trustworthy 4-tracks and him go their separate ways so he's now presenting 12 perfectly arranged folk songs to us. Luke reveals himself as a kind soul, but like the western movies taught us, a dreadful killer always hides under every placid looking Texan.
"Leaving his strongly lo-fi sound that impressed us the first time, he treasures the recipe, packing in this new plain, delightful work a caring love for vocals, which are worthy of Neutral Milk hotel, with a touch of Chordettes feel."Daniele Dileo - Lab Magazine

There is within each of us a spirit that reaches out to all others. That part of us is not controlled by our egos, it knows no time, it knows no boundaries, it has no concept of death...it is undefeatable. It is the friend that we wish, we seek, we know and yet cannot fathom. Welcome to my circle of friends.
"...It is hard to sometimes walk away from a problem in order to solve it. Sometimes our burdens seem so great that they are irresolvable. I have learned this from the study of Logic: To actually know that a problem exists there needs to be some form of a solution to base it on that it exists. As in Physics we cannot measure darkness, so we used Mythos to describe the darkness, even the darkness of our minds. Mythos predates and is the ancestor of our modern Psychologies. The problems we find hardest to walk away from are those that cause us to feel dread. What is easiest to change is the feeling of dread..." From the book: The Lyth of Lemmings by Frank Mueller
I am looking for help (venues, booking agents, bands/acts to do shows with) to set up a tour, this coming October and November 2008. I plan to start with the west coast of the U.S. Los Angeles, San Francisco, Portland, Seattle, then into Canada; Vancouver, Calgary, Winnipeg, then back to the U.S. to Duluth (have to see where Bob came from, I played Greenwich Village December 2007, so the journey continues…), then through North and South Dakota, Nebraska, Oklahoma, over to nashville, then into Texas and back to Dallas where I lived and played 21 years ago, and of course Austin, then through New Mexico and Arizona back to L.A. to fly back home to Melbourne. Waiting to hear from you
