New Stuff 

Greetings all,

 

Ish has been living in a hole called Clinical Depression for most of his life, but its been a lot deeper hole in the last 5 years, and so not much has happened. But having recently aquired a hold-climbing ladder, he remains hopeful that new music and videos will be coming much more often than once every 5 years. 

To start, we've recorded a version of our new song “Depression Anthem” for the NPR Tiny Desk Contest. 

Here it is!

New Project 

Hello all, I'm going to be premiering a new piece at the UCLA Machine Dreams Symposium ( https://www.facebook.com/events/916379058413414/ ) . It's not really an open event, so I haven't bothered to promote it ahead of time, but I wanted to let you know about it and about the project that I'm playing there.

 

I've created a video preview of Part 1, which sets the scene and also describes a bit about my eventual goals with this project. You can find it here: https://youtu.be/5NlJOiLRqPw

Playing and Rebuilding 

First off, we're playing next Wednesday at The Ark Open Stage show. If you've never been it's sort of an open mic plus, with a lot of really great musicians who come out, some regulars, some first timers, but it's a friendly room with great acoustics and a really fun place to see a fairly random sample. I've heard classic blues, amazing guitar fingerstyle, classical piano pieces, jazz standards, ukulele novelty songs, and piano power punk, all in the same night on previous outings. So come out and enjoy…

Recording 

Spent the evening working on recording for the new album. We're working on one particular song right now, trying to get it finished so we can release it early, before the end of summer, hopefully with a video to go along with it. That might be too aggressive a schedule, and it wouldn't be the first time for that, but we're trying.

So tonight I've been working on the ukulele track. Like anything involving art or computers, half of the time is spent getting everything set up the right way to record…

Statement of Intent 

Greetings all.

So I haven't been real good about keeping things updated. I've been working on new projects and new music all the time but I've sucked at telling people about it. And that's the thing, isn't it? Making good music isn't enough.

The new world for musicians is both terrifying and exciting, in the way all good things should be. The old reliance on finding a record label and "making it big" as a dream is dead, mostly, and good riddance. In it's place is a dizzying array of outlets and options to…

2013 Update 

Greetings, people of the Internets. There are things happening furiously in the background, and so I figured I should let you know about some of them. So you can be prepared, because without proper preparation I'd hate to think what could happen. Separated from your socks, even. So, straight to it.

1) Recording for the new album is in progress. John and I got together a few weeks ago to run through all the songs and decide on any additions or changes we were interested in, and I'm just now beginning on…

A project of interest (perhaps) to keep you busy while Ish is on a boat 

Greetings, All!

John here, making a rare appearance on the NEWS page to put in a shameless plug for one of my other musical projects.

In addition to the work Ish and I have been doing on the soon-to-be-released wemew singles, I've also been hard at work with my metal band, Pan (yes, I said metal band. And no, this is not an April Fool's joke). We've just finished recording our debut album entitled Advent, which will be released on the 13th of April to coincide with our first live show in Kalamazoo. I'm…

More music hidden and a quick update 

So, Hi!

I've been on a ship for the last several months and so wasn't paying a lot of attention to the world of Facebooks and Internets, and so just recently noticed that the music had been stored and available for listening on the Facebook page has disappeared, and FB no longer seems to host music. So I'm putting some more tracks up here so you can still hear the songs, as well as adding some other stuff I have laying around.

In more general news, John and I have been working a bit on some new songs…

Website Launch and upcoming news 

Greetings and welcome to the new wemew website! 

We're not 100% done here, but it seemed well past time to have something up, so you'll just have to excuse a few changes here and there as we move along. Ultimately everything is a work in progress, anyway.

Having a decent site has been a priority for a while, but because Ish has a modest amount of technical skill (having built dozens of pages in the HTTP 1.1 days, and being moderately proficient even into the CSS days) he's been avoiding it because he…
