Background Processing

Considering that we have no shows this month I'm still pretty busy.

Organising US tour #5 is underway and roughly on schedule.

I'm trying to do this in a way that doesn't cause the crazy stress we've had in previous years by doing it slowly and methodically.

Breathe in, sign form.

Breathe out, look up insurance.

Yes, welcome to the world of the Self Propelled Artist. Oh yeah. More on that in a bit.

Project Status's's's's's

Salon Project - trying to organise the next session. We've got one song in production now, it needs more cowbell.

MUCH more cowbell. Or the metaphorical equivalent.

cowowowowowowowowo.gif

This project will likely diverge into SC12/13. I think. The whole idea is to get on with it and then release them in whichever grouping makes sense.

Every album has a theme, we got the next one.

I fricking love crossfire, it's made better by the energy and creative input from our mates. Now I'm slightly scared because that one turned out perhaps...a little too well. Now we gotta work harder.

Anyway. Next.

LOPE Project - Aww come on gimme a break here I barely just sorted accom for Memphis next year

Alright. Fine.

Tech. I'm in tech land. I did the research, now I need test subjects, a date, gear, more testing. 

Videos -  I could not get Rosie to go along with my ideas for the Lady Grey Video, part of the Sydney Identity Project. Yeah well we get done what we can. He gave me that look. That Rosie look.

Mr Wizard also gives me that look. You know who doesn't?...well...often? THEO.

Expect more videos about the drummer, Yeah you heard me.

Ok. So here's how it's gonna be for a while. We're going to opportunistically attempt 'things' which means I don't know which 'things' exactly will occur, exactly, in which order, exactly.

I know that it's still pretty crazy in the mind space of the general world, hopefully every time you spend a few minutes in the stormcellar you come away with a little breather from it all.

Here's the video again cos I am digging it.

Hmmm.

Video Good.

We have a busy period from October through to Jan when we head to the US.

We have a busy period now actually. Logistics and what not, plus the other projects we've been trying.

Oh yeah.

I totally haven't really shared much about that this year. Maybe it's because some of the things we've been trying are a little riskier, so it's less Souffle and more Soufloppe.

Once the projects begin to bite, you usually see the results up here somewhere.

Over the next while, we'll be making as many attempts at these items as we can, as we usually do, being that's pretty much what we enjoy doing.

I'm putting the digital busking hat out, stick a buck in it and see what else we can get up to.

So here's some of the stuff we're up to

SALON

The Salon project was the idea of doing something similar to Kansas City Gold, except with the awesome talent we have right here in our community.

As you can see from the first session with Christina & Den, this might produce some good work.

LOPE

Nope. Not telling until I get the pilot done. Just gimme money and trust me. TRUUUUUUUST ME. Become a Patron!

MEMPHIS

Yeah. Paperwork and planning. And Stuff. Gofund me. See my theme for this post? CASH BROTHER. GOFUNDME TO MEMPHIS

SC12

Multiple themes leading to a few different tests. 

So yeah. BUY A PREVIOUS ALBUM...or a new single!

No gigs for Sept, then a bunch and we're trying to add as many as we can in order to make up for the Aussie getting pounded in the trade wars. Expect to see us on your street with a thumb out.

Heck we're not proud. Our fundraising efforts for Memphis 2020 principally consist of the idea of musical Chugging. 

Accosting the everyman in the street and using music to extract cash.

So if you see us down on the corner, out in the street, you know what to do.

memphis-or-busk (site).jpg

Might run some fundraiser at some point too. Hmmm.

Meanwhile I got stuff to do! Can't st around here nattering all day, it's Hustle Time! We Gotta Get To Graceland (or nearby)

It took 9 months to get this one together.

A remarkable confluence of factors then occurred and here we are.

Den & Christina are awesome.

Big ups to Jonesy for videoing.

We'll get this mastered and up online in a few days.

Cheers to Alex for pointing out that some old offers were still active. Fixed.

Crikey. it's been a while since we sold physical CD's directly off the site.

No doubt we'll revisit direct sales.

Meanwhile it's digital and Cyberbusking.
