Okay, okay, I know I haven't been around in a while but this is really important you guys.

This new song moves like molasses in January, and clocks in at an unintentionally epic 7:12. You could probably play this for your girlfriend.

This one lies somewhere between Lucero and Streetlight Manifesto. I positioned myself further from the mic than usual, which made the mix a lot cleaner, I think.

I've loved this song since I was a kid, and the older I get the more parts of it make sense.

These guys are like listening to Calexico sped up to four times the play speed. Really, really good.

Basically for my own reference. Wacky British performance of the most American song ever.

This is the greatest story about a recording, probably, that I've ever heard.

Irving Berlin performs "God Bless America." Oddly touching.

What I'll often do is record a sample verse and sample chorus of a song I'm writing, so that I don't forget what I wrote the next day when I continue working on it.
