Some New Band Work

First up is a demo done for HIGGS THEORY - a prog-based jam band in the Chicago area. Besides this track, "Seasonal Interest", there are several more songs HERE. Please check them out (and maybe even HIRE THEM for your festival!)...they're loud and talented and not so famous yet that you can't afford them!

AND - currently working on filling out basic tracks on Renee Serritella's solo album: the basic band elements are down, now concentrating on string sections, horns and vocals. Watch this space for more info!

PLUS - actually finally starting work on the new Gus Stagg album...after whittling down some 30 demos to about 15 tunes (no easy task, as it turns out...they're ALL great songs!). Listen for updates.

ALSO - Theatre Of The Mindless comedy! Their parody of radio's premiere western drama Gunsmoke, titled "Gunschmuck" was given a rave review HERE. Audio drama and comedy just don't seem to get their just due these days...TOTM is hoping to change that!

TOO - don't be fooled by the lack of speedy updates here, it only means that we're too busy doing all these audio things to spend much time blogging about it!  Thanks for understanding.

IN ADDITION - be sure to check out Mike Przygoda's podcast, "Too Much Perspective": in-depth conversations with some of Chicago's best musicians!
