ahhh.. it feels incredible outside. i’m at starbeez drank’n white chocolate cocha and enjoying the free wifi. No need to plug in my headphones because every car that passes by is bumping ridiculously rad tunes at volume 11… Anways, so much has happened since I last wrote! I now live in Los Angeles and just moved into a new home with my best friend Will Smith and wonderful girlfriend, Evan. The best thing about our new home is we can now operate Barely Blind in every aspect. Well… almost every aspect, the house will have wifi by 3pm today! But we now have our own practice space and plenty of room to get creative! So much music is about to be made, you don’t even know. Also, we’ve been planning these really neat projects we’ll be talking about soon. It’s all happening this year. 2012!!!

shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh……….Here’s a free download of my bands new album —— Wilder Child of a Thousand Suns

This morning I stumbled out of bed and headed straight for the coffee pot. Made me a nice cup of brew, opened my lap top, and got to reading. I came across one of my favorite bands, Tokyo Police Club, and they had posted a link to a live performance they did in the back of a Uhaul truck in NYC. It’s really neat, go check it out here: http://thewildhoneypie.com/tokyopoliceclub/… Anyways I saw the artwork for it and was blown away. I guess great minds do think alike!

I hope to see y’all on the “Keep It Real” Tour coming up this March!
