What I’ll be doing this Fall

I’m working on a couple of posts right now about the mundane tasks of making a record (can you contain your excitement?), which should be up soon. I’ve been keeping busy with more recording with The Angelus (continuing overdubs for the upcoming LP), Shiny Around The Edges (tracking, and soon mixing, for a project to be determined), and White Drugs, and Tre Orsi. I’ve also mastered a few things here and there for The Uptown Bums, Valencia, Spain’s Indigo, and Birmingham, England’s Lazarus Clamp.

Also, this Fall I will be running sound and tour managing for the excellent David Bazan, all over North America. I’ve toured with David a little bit in the past (The New Year played some West Coast shows with him a couple of years ago), but this will be his first shows with a band since the Pedro the Lion days. He’s an incredibly funny and generous fellow, and I’m excited as all get out about this tour. The dates are up on his site. Say Hi is support for the whole thing. Come say hello if you’re in the neighborhood(s).
