SQUIDS, SATURDAY 7/28 @ MINIBAR

***

 

I checked out this record by Egyptology yesterday, kind of spooky ambient synth music for driving through the lunar landscape of Lenexa, KS.
 


Later I checked out this George FitzGerald techno record and really like it. After a few months of checking out new music and bouncing around from genre to genre (seeming to land on space rock, ambient rock, motorik-guitar music, and African pop and soul much of the time) I fired up Circle Jerks Wild In The Streets. 

Very comfy and goofy, like an old Chevette full of empty QT fountain drink cups and cassette tapes on the floorboards.

SQUIDS + DEAD VOICES + THE GRAVE ESCAPE AT THE BRICK FRIDAY, 5/18/18

TRACKING AT TEMPLE SOUNDS

I got lead vocals done on the new Squids project Saturday at Temple Sounds, and Matt, Alex, and Steve added some backing vocals as well. 

We'll be playing a show at The Brick on Friday 5/18 with The Grave Escape and Dead Voices.
