Bio / Background
This solo album has been a long time coming...I've been toying with it since high school, but never got around to putting it together. After I graduated from college, I was determined to finally get it done, but the years rolled by and somehow the songs wouldn't record themselves as I got busy with other bands and life in general. Then this past year, I hit a point of desperate resolution and weekend after weekend the songs came to life -- by Christmas of 2006 I had the album recorded. It was a surprise even to me that this finally came to exist after all this time.
The songs are mostly acoustic rock songs with catchy electronic beats and effects, sort of like John Mayer meets The Postal Service with Fountains of Wayne vocals. I'm obsessed with the compactness and emotional impact of a well-crafted pop song, but I don't think songs have to be meaningless or trite just because they're poppy.
↓ more ↓I hope I accomplished that with these tunes - feel free to have a listen and judge for yourself.
I know musicians don't normally thank people until they've sold a billion copies and received some sort of heavy award, but since that's probably not in the cards I'll do it now. I want to thank my family and friends for all their encouragement during my years of ambition and procrastination, Mike Prochilo for mastering it to sound way better than I ever could, and thanks also to that dark and tender place where inspiration seems to come from when you're completely unprepared and don't have even the back of an envelope to write on.
