Slow Leak: An Evolution


I'm gearing up to record my first EP. Everything feels like it is moving in the right direction, at the right speed. A friend of mine, Jason, commented that he loves Slow Leak because he was able to see it evolve from the moment of conception to where it is today. It has, indeed, been a wild progression.

I love Slow Leak now, a story about a relationship torn apart. It was written as a letter to myself and my partner at the time as we were in the midst of a drawn out break up. We were trying to figure out the way to find a resolution while making a series of terrible decisions.

It's cathartic and painful and exhilarating to play & I can't wait to have a full recording of it. I know it's top on a lot of people's lists of songs to have on the album.

Thanks to Tyler Breish for the iPhone video at our latest Homophonic Show. Come see Homophonic, a queer singer/songwriter showcase, every third Saturday of the month at Martuni's SF.

Fly Gypsy. Mormon Cowboy.

I reserve the right to change my mind, but this could be--hands down--the best interview I did at SXSW. Fly Gypsy performed at LRG's party on St. Patricks day down at Aces on 6th Street in Austin. The part that you don't see, is this is actually the second time we filmed this interview because I pulled a rookie move and forgot to turn the microphone on. Fly Gypsy were such dolls about it. They kept their energy up, laughed with me and chatted, once again, about their time on stage.

Fly Gypsy has a #1 freestyle out of 132 on DJBooth.net and their single 2 Step reached No. 1 spot on college hip-hop charts.
