Hey everybody! THE WAIT IS OVER AND EVERYTHING RULES!!! I can FINALLY open my big mouth and share stuff that’s been top secret FOREVER! There’s SO much happening…I guess the best place to start is THE RELEASE DATE FOR “FROM PILLAR TO POST”!

We are gonna be doing an exclusive pre-release and digital release direct to you guys from THIS WEBSITE beginning on LABOR DAY WEEKEND (SEPTEMBER 4TH, 2009)! The record doesn’t hit stores and iTunes til this November, but you can get yours here in a few short weeks!!!

Alongside the release of “From Pillar To Post”, we will be releasing a Four Volume Remix EP Collection titled “Blood In The Water” which includes remixes of songs from my new record by Styrofoam, Boy In Static, The Gentry, Y-Tron, Naked Highway, Daniel Cartier, Asteroid Belt…the list goes on and on from there and I am spinning with excitement about how this piece of the puzzle has turned out. I have been freaking out DAILY about how talented all the people around me (and involved in this project) are and how CRAZY it is to have somebody tap into new, awesome places with my songs…not to mention that my long time musical superhero did a remix. Styrofoam?!?! Are you kidding me?!?! Super RAD.

SO…you can all finally hear what I’ve been working on for the past 2 1/2 years!!! I am really looking forward to that moment…those moments…Hope you are too. Labor Day Weekend can’t come soon enough, if you ask me!

🙂

For now, here is my new video for “Write It On My Left Arm” (the first of two we have made so far for songs from the new record)!

That’s right, folks…TOTAL overhaul on the LL live show. Tom Filepp (aka “Cars and Trains”) has linked up with me and taken over the musical end of my show. I’ll still be behind the mic, but instead of Carlos DJ-ing alongside, you will now see Tom doing his glitch-loop live drum pad spectacle and running the laptop(s).

We’ve been putting a LOT of work into the new setup and are looking forward to sharing the new diggz with all of you at my Musicfest Northwest showcase in Portland next month! (9/18/09, East End – 203 SE Grand, Portland)

Now…For some background on “Cars and Trains” (in case you haven’t already heard):

ABOUT “CARS AND TRAINS”:

cars & trains albums consist of handfuls of microscopic crafted worlds, shaped with tiny precision. Layers of decaying feedback, sparse glockenspiel and tape samples weave a dark and dense tapestry of sound while deep brooding vocals sit atop songs with deceptive timing, subtle electronic stutters, and thunderous and organic drumming. Banjo driven four to the floor stompers yield to velvety acoustic guitar and spacious instrumentals laden with sampled americana.
