The album release show for The Ten Thousand Things is happening on June 29, 2012, at The Elliott Street Pub in Atlanta GA. Hope you can make it.

My first recollection of John Bowman is seeing Mother Fucking Tourettes in the C17 (I think) loft in the West End. Probably 2001 or 2002. Maybe. I remember why and how they blew my mind, and how John was part of that. I also remember all the brief conversations about music we had over the years, fresh and weird, and John’s unmistakeable and inimitable sweetness of character. Who could ever be that sweet and sincere and mean it? John was sincere and gentle the way some people are tall or have perfect vision. It was simply built in. I’m going to miss John and wish for the rest of my life that I’d known him better. My thoughts are with all who will miss him. So long, John.

The new album is mastered. FINALLY. Expect a release date set sometime before I’m 40. Maybe.

The Ten Thousand Things is finally coming into focus. The mixes are complete and my sister Lauren Clay has produced a beautiful piece of artwork for the cover (you can enjoy a few pixels of it above.) The release has been pushed back to the spring 2012 due to the imminent chaos and complexity of the holiday season.

In Maine for two weeks for work (one down, one to go) recording sound for five short films and three TV spots for the University of Maine. When I get back I’ll be doing final mixes on the new album and hopefully this woefully neglected blog will be replaced (or absorbed) by a new website.
