New News for Old People.

This is a quick summary of what I have been accomplishing during these last few weeks:

Nothing.

Now here are some things I've been working on for the past few weeks:

I magically acquired a gig that I will unceremoniously ruin with my style. It takes place May 11th, 9:30 pm at the Syd. All the information is on the "Shows" page.

There are, at my last count, 6 songs I have a good idea of what I want to sound like. It is weird, I only have 4 more songs to make before I release another album ( I have a weird thing where I like 10 songs per album), and I didn't realize it until I sat down and counted.  So, that means this album will be happening soonish, before the new year at least, but not before I can get my "studio" set up again. I will be messing with my drum machine and bass so hopefully I will get a full band sound this time around. If it becomes too much of a hassle, or starts taking too much time, I will probably scrap the idea. But a full band sound is definitely the goal for the third album.

Speaking of full band sound, I have been playing with the idea of corralling some musicians for a backing band. I might be able to wrangle a few more shows that way, but then again I haven't even tried wrangling shows in the first place-- I just sort of fall into them. This idea is still far off in the future.

I might throw out an EP of a some songs. I have artwork I want to use, and I'm not doing anything. No one will buy it. Why not?

Anyways, that is all I have.

Peace,

Something something...

I'm planning something... don't know how it will be pull off. Just keep your heads up.

First Gig!

Pabodie's Drilling Apparatus is playing its first gig this Saturday night at The Syd in Sioux City.

Not sure the details, but I will be playing a half hour set around 8-8:30. Maybe.

Be there!

Release

So, one day left.

I will release my album for public purchase tomorrow before 5PM.

I will have more on the exact time when it arrives.

Peace,
Erik

New Songs

Just posted 2 new songs on Reverbnation for all of my fans to enjoy: "So Dumb" and "Aware."

They are both rough cuts, and I plan on re-recording them later for the album release, but I felt like releasing them as a teaser and to keep the hungry populace satiated, for now.

Back on Track

After a month of busy weeks, I will be returning to Open Mic nights at the Chesterfields.

I know, calm down, this is exciting news.
Wednesday the 24th at 9ish.

Have fun.

Updates on new album

I know, I know, why am I working on a new album when my first album isn't even out yet?

Because that is how I roll, baby. I am an enigma wrapped in a mystery dipped in a hot, steamy bowl of ambiguity.

I will plan a late Summer/early Fall release of the new album: Casanova Nights. The name is subject to change, because, well, see the enigma nonsense from earlier. However there is one concrete thing that will carry over to the actual release, the album art:

This is the official album art of my next release, unless I happen to change it.
In fact, this is all speculation and conjecture. Do not take this to heart, at all.

Love,
Pabodie's Drilling Apparatus.
