7/3/2010 - News, Releases, Video, etc.

Hey friends,

I'm still getting the hang of this whole social networking, logging-your-life kind of self-marketing, so bear with me - I'm pretty infrequent with watering my internet plant but I'll learn one of these days.

NEWS!

New album "Antiques" due out this summer!

Good news, I'm within days of finishing re-mixes of a re-release.  Basement Tapes EP will be back in print - sort of.  Select tracks from that along with some other older stuff from previous Myspace postings will be re-released SOON, re-mixed, re-tracked, re-mastered - Done right this time.  Release date TBA, but I can tell you that it'll be sent out for mastering either this coming week or the next - depends on how nit-picky I get. 

MORE NEWS!

Scheduling is in place for a music video of "Don't Believe It" to be filmed by a great music video director named Brooke Hanson!  The video shoots last weekend of July/first weekend of August (exact details yet to be ironed out) but suffice it to say, my debut music video is in the works.  Stay tuned for that!

AND...

Tracking is still underway for the release of an EP of new material, CD Title and release date TBA, but it will be a follow-up to "Antiques" on the not-so-distant horizon.  Keep an eye out for that date as well!

Shows TBA in Los Angeles as I begin rehearsals with a band.

Thanks for stickin' with me while I figure out this whole consistency technique with the internet... See you around!

3/28/10 - More Live Video... "Untangled" and more!

Dear Friends,

I'm posting parts 2 and 3 of some video footage of a solo acoustic gig from North Hollywood, CA.  It's the first of much live video to come, as I'm just discovering how useful this whole Youtube thing is.  I know... Patrick, welcome to 2004.

Enjoy your weekend everyone.

3/23/10 - Live Video! "Don't Believe It"

Live video is up on YouTube now from the solo acoustic show at the Avery Schreiber Theater in North Hollywood, CA.  "Don't Believe It" is the first performance posted - stay tuned for more.

3/14/10 - Avery Schreiber Video

Thanks to those who came out to the show last night in NoHo - It was a fun time!  I'll be posting three videos of the solo acoustic set from the gig on the internet soon... keep an eye out for it.

In other news, recording is going well - Still tracking some new stuff, still mixing some stuff as well.  Good things are on the horizon!

3/13/10 - Avery Schreiber Theater, North Hollywood

Seems like this is the thing to do nowadays.  But nevertheless, if you've got a gigantic twitter itch, by all means feel free to sign up and follow my news updates!  I occasionally post random thoughts or news updates whenever I feel like it.

On that note, new songs are coming along really well - I've been working overtime to get these songs tracked and released as soon as possible, and soon after will be booking live shows endlessly.  In the meantime, keep in touch, spread the word and stay connected for the news to come!

Happy March.

12/10/08 - Basement Tapes EP Out of Print

Dear Friends,

It's been awhile.


I'm just dropping in because it's come to my attention as of yesterday that Basement Tapes EP is out of print and now officially sold out. It'll continue to be available on iTunes for awhile longer, however.


As you all know, the EP is just a collection of pre-production demos from awhile back. It's now out of print because some of the songs have been re-recorded and are going to be re-released along with a slew of new material for the upcoming full length LP, which is currently undergoing production here in Los Angeles.


As always, it's an infinite pleasure to know you. If you want to catch up while I'm busy laying the bricks on the new material, then feel freer than free to sign up for the mailing list, keep up with the blog, comment, or message with whatever Hellos you feel like sharing today.


It's Wednesday, go do something fun.


Take it easy - but take it!


PJ

8/16/08 - Updates

Various links and MP3 streams were broken on the myspace.com music page.  As of today they should be fixed.

There is a new EP in the works currently being written and recordings soon to be underway, loosely titled "Sessions from an Empty Room and Other Stories Caught From the Air."  Keep an eye out for that as well as Los Angeles gigs TBA.

7/26/08 - Moving to Los Angeles

A message to fans: Patrick is relocating from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania to Los Angeles, California as of July 31st, 2008 for both personal and career reasons.

5/27/08 - New Version of "Arsonist Blues" Posted

Hey All,
Brand-New version of Arsonist Blues is up. A step up from the former acoustic demo, for those of you who like to nod your head to a rhythm of some sort.

A quick note about what's cooking in the oven:
-New songs are currently being recorded. They should be popping up within weeks, weather permitting(?).
-A cover is in the works as well. Won't tell until it's done, just have to wait and see..

And a load of other things. So much stuff to do, so few fingers to push buttons with.

have a great week.

4/16/08 - And Now For Some News...

1) "Arsonist Blues" is getting the track it deserves, from a fledgling acoustic demo to a full-band recording. Stay tuned for that.

2) There is a cover in the works being recorded. It's a surprise, so you'll just have to wait and see what it is. It's a goodie, though.

3) A new song is being written, and once the above two tasks are complete, this song will be recorded and released soon. So don't go away! The best is yet to come.


Have a brilliant week.

3/16/08 - Mailing List Button Fixed...

Sorry about the problem with the mailing list button not working for awhile, but it's all in order now.  If you were trying to get the free MP3s before but couldn't, now you can.  Hope you all have a great, great week.

3/14/08 - Blogging Time

I had started a blog on MySpace about a week ago, and now I've carried it over to my main page.  So as of today, there is a blog section of my website which will be updated every so often.  Just voicings and insights of the thoughts that circle in between the songs.

3/9/08 - Mailing List = Free MP3s

As of today, if you sign up for the mailing list here on the site you'll be eligible to download two FREE Mp3s - "Untangled" and "Sugar and Lies!"  Sign up and get 'em today..

3/8/08 - New Song

New demo recording of my song "Sugar and Lies" is now posted on my MySpace and Facebook pages, and soon will be here in the Audio section of this site. 

"Sugar and Lies" is actually an older song, originally recorded as an acoustic demo back in 2006...but I brushed the dust off, gave it a new hat, taught it a few new tricks and now it's as good as new.  Let me know how you dig it.

Keep listening, stay happy...
