Just had an amazing time in Montreal recording with my friends the Luyas. Here’s a great short film made by another inspiring friend Vincent Moon. Beautifully shot… sounds amazing… and The Luyas songs are incredibly unique and wonderous. Check it out.

BLOGS ARE THE NEW WEBSITE

Hello Gangsteeers,

Haven’t posted in a long long time… no fear though… i’m not dead yet.
I have been hibernating out at Piha… eating delicious food… and getting lost in the bush. Some of my walks have taken so far away from my little house that i have resorted to sleeping in the dirt. I find myself living off the land… showering in waterfalls and making friends with praying mantises.
I have driven back into town now and catching up on a few things… like this BLOG.

At the end of the week i head to Australia to open for Wilco. It’s exciting to join them again after the tour through the US last year which was one of my favourite experiences so far. This time it will just be me with my telecaster… no drums… no loops (well we’ll see) and unfortunately no EJ. Still, i think it will be a good show… i back myself. Intimate and stripped back… sexy. I’ve got back.
i am doing a little side show in Melbourne at the Newtown workers club on Brunswick st. Connan is in town so he’ll probably join me…. we might even play some BARB.

The BARB album should be coming out in a month or so… you’d think i’d know huh…
It’s set for release in NZ, Australia and the US and we’re still waiting to hear whether we can get it out in the UK.
We’re really happy with it and think it’s truly unique piece of work. Very different from all of out individual projects.
For those of you who don’t know what the hell BARB is we’re working on a bio… and we have a myspace now i think.
www.myspace.com/barbseyes
Basically it’s a band i have formed with some of my bestest mates, Lawrence Arabia, Connan Mockasin, Eliza-Jane and Seamus. We spent a month last year writing and record at roundhead studio’s and the result is this

we have a twitter… www.twitter.com/barbseyes
a little preview video thing i made on vimeo and youtube. http://www.vimeo.com/10393702
and you can find us on facebook too… but i can’t seem to find that. ha
oh here it is… got to make it easier to find

thanks

The Wilco tour family portrait!!

Here are some photes from Cedar Park in Austin Texas…. we were the 2nd gig ever in the venue… the house lights didn’t get turned off for the first half of our set cos the house staff couldn’t find the switch.

this is Matrix, A Wilco tech extraordinaire!

and it was cold inside… as it is usually an ice hockey arena… but i had my jacket to keep me warm

Yo, I is Laim

then we went shooting with Shredda in Nashville… awesome… wait till you see the footage.

don’t fuck with SAM… he may have a friendly face… but you should have seen him with the shotgun

AW… like brother and sister. THATS ALL ok… or is it?

It was such a treat to be back at Massey Hall for my 4th and 5th time!! also, best catering all tour!
