Over the last few weeks we've released footage from our "Live in the Corner" sessions. This is the third and final video... quite different from the album version. Click on the image below to watch "Out to the Lions" (a personal favorite)!

New Video: "West Bay" from the "Live in the Corner" sessions

Wed, 16 Nov 2011 04:50:00 GMT

A few weeks ago we released a live acoustic video of the song Lift- the opening track from our album (click HERE to see it in case you missed it). Today we're releasing a second video from our "Live In the Corner" sessions. This time it's West Bay, the closing track on the album. In contrast to the album version we made this up-tempo version of "West Bay" more fun and energetic. Enjoy.

Announcing "Live in The Corner"

Sun, 23 Oct 2011 10:00:00 GMT

Recently Ron and I started recording together in my home studio (which we affectionately refer to as “The Corner”). We got the notion to do a couple of songs from our album ("Is Here A Sense"), but we wanted to completely alter the feel that these songs originally had. We recorded and filmed all the sessions and are calling them: "Live In The Corner". The first song from “Live in The Corner” is “Lift”. In sharp contrast to the album, this is a slower, mellow acoustic rendition.

Clevelander Rooftop Gig - Rained Out!

Sat, 25 Jun 2011 04:30:00 GMT

We spent a lot of time gearing up for what was to be a very cool show for us. The plan was an all acoustic show on the Clevelander rooftop overlooking the ocean. It was not to be. On the day of the show, black rain clouds followed us as we packed up for the trip to Miami Beach and just hours before the downbeat the skies opened up.

Fret not, though. We're already in the process of rescheduling and will announce the date as soon as we have it.
