Nothing as quick; give many kisses--but many kisses, can turn a miss to a misses.

Hey, this is Derek Shaw's sister, Mariel. You've never met me, but Derek gave me your CD (I think y'all know each other through VDW). :)

Just wanted to let you know Charlyne Yi featured your song on her guest DJ project on KCRW.com: http://www.kcrw.com/music/programs/gd/gd090826charlyne_yi

props!

Sub-Rock just caught a glimpse of your videos through it's periscope and tuned in to a local radio station to get the sound, it was like being at a drive-in! Not really but the videos were great! Thanks for posting them.

Hey!! Its been a long time, how are you?? Missed you back home this christmas... I just got home myself after a whirlwind 10 days around (I live in London now). I haven't been on this site in ages, and fancy that when I log in it says you are online! So I wanted to say hello and maybe snag a chance to catch up. Hope all is well. x ashley

hey Mat! I have some friends in NY right now that are awesome musicians and I think you ought to hook up with the two of them. One plays the bagpipes and the other the tablas. Their plan is to play on the streets to make some $ from what I heard. They're just passing through. The number I have for you doesn't work though. Are you still in NY? Can I put you in touch with them? What are your new digits?

Hi Mat,

How are you?
I just got the T-shirts I ordered for the NYC Musical Saw Festival. I'm excited about the logo:

What do you think?
I hope you can join us at the festival on Saturday, July 18th, 2pm at Trinity Church, 31-18 37th street, Astoria (Queens).

Happy Memorial Day Weekend,

Natalia
