CIGARETTE BARBIES + BRANCHES SXSW

Cigarette Barbies:

I also had the privilege to record with my great friend Shawn again, for Cigarette Barbies. I am part of "Angst in My Pants" and "Oh So Soon"! Listen Below:

I was also so lucky to be a part of the first album by Cigarette Barbies as well - the track is called "I'm Your Man"

Branches just got back from SXSW and we had a great time meeting everyone! We played three showcases + spent the rest of our time watching some of our friends playing. Look forward to many more!

 

PERFECT - ROBERT DELONG FEATURE

It has been a long time coming for this album to be released, but the record is finally here -
one of my great friends and an incredibly talented artist Robert DeLong's album is here!

This was also a project I had the HUGE privilege to be a part of. I was lucky enough to sing on one of my favorite Robbie songs, "Perfect" - I met Robbie in 2008 and ever since then we've played a myriad of shows together and had so many great times hanging out. I've watched his success grow and grow steadily over the years, and the news that he joined the Glassnote Records family came as no surprise! He just performed on "Late Night with David Letterman" February 13th and will be playing a myriad of large festivals including Coachella - so be sure to keep up with him!

Enjoy and safe travels

TINY HANDS (AU REVIOR) - SILENT PLANET FEATURE


This past January, I had the pleasure of being a guest vocalist on one of Silent Planet's new songs. 

The song is based on a story from a French woman, Madame Marguerite Rouffance, who survived the Holocaust.  She, a long with a lot of her village, were thrown in the church and the Nazi's sent it up in flames. She survived, and said this in later war trials:

"Je suis sorti vivant du four crematoire, je suis le temoin sacre de l'eglise. Je sui une mere qui a tout perdu."

Translation:"
"I came out alive from the crematory oven; I am the sacred witness from the church. I am a mother who has lost everything."

This is the piece I was asked to sing of the song acting as Madame Marguerite Rouffance. It's so beautiful - and you can check it out below - Thanks Silent Planet!

Hello Friends! A lot has happened in the past few months - check it out below!

BRANCHES:

Branches released a few more Christmas songs this year:

They are also on Noisetrade, though I am not sure for how long, so get them free there while you can! We just completed a West Coast Christmas tour with some new instrumentation and a fresh set. It was wonderful singing with all of you!_____________…

THE WILD REEDS:

I also recently released the news of my departure from my band The Wild Reeds. Thank you all for the support over the years, it has been an incredible three years with these ladies. The girls will continue on to make more great music with the addition of a few new band members and I encourage you to keep following them, because I know I sure will. I will play my final farewell show with the girls as the "last original members show" on January 13th at Cal Poly Pomona.
