Last up is song #10. The last mix, mastering, and we should have an album by June.

Longest. Album. Project. Ever. And worth the wait.

I have been hard at work on finishing Sky Meet Sea so I haven’t played out in a while but this Sunday I will be playing a short set at Room 5.

Come on out if you are around, I’m on at 8:15p and it’s a great lineup all night.

I’ll be playing songs from the upcoming album.

The cover for my next album is done. More info at SkyMeetSea.com.

Many thanks to Nathan Fowkes for his work.

I have a very specific image that I am looking for as the cover for Sky Meet Sea and I was hoping my sister could do it but she is too busy being a full-time mother. I started looking around for someone else to execute my vision and I stumbled onto the site for Nathan Fowkes who I think is absolutely amazing. I have asked him to help and I am hoping he says yes! His eye for color is truly stunning and because the image I want is a sunset with a lot of complex and subtle hues I know he could knock it out of the park.

I have had great luck with all of the wonderful people that have done cover art for me in the past, so let’s hope my lucky streak continues. In any case, if you are not aware of Nathan’s work, you should be. Spend 5 minutes looking at his blog and you will wish you were a graphic artist.
